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…

I am the same way. I'm the sweetest and most patient person when sober. It's always my Husband who gets the brunt of it all. You can do this. I am rooting for us. We are not alone! 😊🙏

Thank you for your comment! I am ready for the change and to show my husband that I didn’t mean any of the mean things I said. Thank you again, I feel less alone and so much more hopeful than I did earlier today. I know change is possible.

Thank you! It’s been a rough day and I’m trying to remind myself that I can change.
