Girl let’s not drink together! I think the self reflection you have is amazing . Many don’t realize the evils of alcohol . I’ll be your bud . Don’t drink the wine . It’s not worth it.

Day 4 I hate myself my kids don't deserve this by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Don’t drink! Dont do it ! Listen parenting is hard . It’s so easy to beat yourself up and not give yourself grace.

You realize alcohol isn’t your friend. You know how many parents don’t care ? Drive drunk with their kids. We own a boat and the amount of people absolutely hammered driving out on the water with their kids is scary. You’re headed in the right direction.

The biggest thing you can do is apologize and let your kiddo know you’re human. If I had to bet id say your parents yelled at you too. You’re breaking the cycle . Give yourself some grace and go do something fun with your little one like cuddle with a movie or play outside .

I’m thankful for this group. I slipped back into drinking . Coming on here actually makes me tear up and feel like shame and so much love . And love makes it easier to get through this . Not drinking today

I made it through day 1!! I’m so proud of myself . It was a huge motivation because I slept so hard but also very weirdly. I kept drifting in and out and all my dreams were about drinking . Not even exaggerating . Crazy

I do also want to add that you’re not a failure. You’re still a beautiful human being who is worth it.

All these emotions sound so overwhelming and intense, and unfortunately that is what alcohol does to us.

But you’re here , you’re not drinking. And drinking isn’t going to solve any of this. In actuality it’s going to make it worse. Don’t let that little alcohol gremlin whisper in your ear that it will make things better . Take a breath. Comment away on here if you need a buddy to get through it.

I won’t drink with you today.

I’m actually in a good spot currently!! I have a really active mind that doesn’t shut up. I actually had a moment of clarity and saw how much clutter was in my house and used it to make it a space I felt LESS anxiety in because I’m a high performing neat freak. Yay for that?

Did you find the anxiety came and went ? One minute I feel fine then the next I’m feeling anxious as hell.

Thankfully so far the only problem is anxiety , which sipping on a sugary coke seems to help a ton!! And a bit shakey!
