First Time Posting.

This is my first time posting here. I’ve looked at this sub before but always thought that I was ok to keep drinking a little. But last night was the last straw for me. I drank far too much and don’t remember the night ending. My husband said I was cruel and demeaning. He said I said some really mean stuff (stuff I don’t even actually feel). I’m just so sad. I had such a great time with family and my drinking ruined the night and today. I’m so ashamed. I thought posting here might help me really start this journey. Day 1…

Thank you so much for that! I’ve been wanting this for a while but never really followed through. I feel this is different though. I’m so ready to never feel this shame again.

Getting sober is a lot easier with a good support system 💜. Be kind to yourself and remember we're all human. You may or may not slip up during this journey but what matters is you recognize that you're powerless over alcohol and you want  better for yourself and those you love. As long as you're trying you're winning. We're here for you!
