Manny, God can help You, anger and addiction are very closely related. Normally behind anger there is something You are afraid of. If You have a sponsor I recommend talking to Him about this very soon and giving God time in Your day every day, God will Guide You threw this and all of Your troubles so that You will not have to struggle.
Good afternoon Manny. I think the first thing you need to do is forgive yourself for doing what you did. We all make mistakes nobodies perfect. I don’t know how old your son is but just apologize to him for what happened the same thing to your mom. We all have trouble keeping our emotions in check it first. We didn’t care too much about our emotions when we were using. At least I didn’t anyway I didn’t care too much about anything. But today I care about a lot. And if I make a mistake I fix it by apologizing to the people I made it to. But you’re doing the right thing by talking about it and getting feedback from people. You didn’t fail at being a father this time. You failed yourself is why you feel that way. You can fix what is ever broken with your son and your mom. But it’s harder to fix yourself and forgive yourself then it is anything else. So make it a point to forgive yourself about what happened. And you done the right thing by talking about it. So just don’t use or drink it’s not worth it anymore. You’re becoming a good father now just keep going on the right path. And enjoy the rest of your afternoon and your evening with your son.
Oh yeah and welcome to the Biggest family you’ll ever have. And we’re here to help you and everybody like us.
Thank you very much to you all for all the support I didn’t end up drinking or using so I feel good about that I apologized to my son he forgave so that’s even better staying strong I hope tomorrow will be better
