DID the steps? It's not something for doing and stopping. It's a continuous process. Hence, LIVE the steps.

I'm depressed and I cry a lot which I know is totally normal just really sucks. I'm dredding that day coming soon where I will lose my mind anybody else know what I'm saying. Last time I went out I came home and took a bunch of morphine and slept 2 days I knew the alcohol was getting to me and my thoughts! I'm praying for support and I love reading happy sober stories!
That husband of yours is doing you a grave disservice - maybe he thinks he's helping you, but in my view what he did just isn't right.

I only say that because I want you to hear that is not support, and you deserve support. If he can't give it to you, then get your help and support where you can - rehab, AA, here, whatever it takes.

Please don't allow your husband or anyone else to drag you back into destructive patterns.... this is YOUR life and YOUR choice and YOU are making the right decisions coming here, seeking help, choosing sobriety.

IG.. I am so sorry your feeling this way. I have been so low before and thought of leaving this earth but my child is what kept me here. Try to think of your kids without a mom? You need to get better, they need their mom. I really think you need to go to inpatient. Get the help u need, the break u need. In the end it will be worth it. You were sober before, you can do it again.

And you say you need to stay busy to keep your mind off the cravings, well then do that, stay busy. Whatever helps you through another day without drinking. I am not an expert, hell i only have 3 days sober but i feel you girl, i do.
