Hello again. "Kiddos"? Yes. This time when I got clean, I found that I too wanted a family. I DO have a possibility, but I have to put in some serious footwork first, as she's no pushover and wants to see how stable I am. But great things are possible in recovery!
Iām sorry! Must have read the wrong post yes I love my recovery process. Not the easiest but I used to drink to numb the pain.
Some people lose a family because of alcohol. You never know what lies ahead. Stay strong and be easy.
Yes I am very fortunate that hasnāt happened.
I went to a casino Saturday in Conn and being only 28 sobriety it was awful. Alcohol was everywhere and just was definitely white knuckling all day. Plus had argument with hubby before I left because he doesnāt really grasp how hard recovery is. So it was the perfect storm. But I got through the day just thinking about how awful my life would be if I drink again. I would lose everything including my life. Even though I have friends in recovery I feel lonely when it comes to my family and some friends. I just donāt fit in anymore.
60 and childless here! But Iām sober and have a chance to finally figure out life? Have to pray to understand Godās will for me every single day.
So proud of you for staying strong!
Proud of you too. I hate being around alcohol right now. Stay strong.
The first 60 days was hard for me. Iām glad I stayed on track
It does get easier. But I still get very nervous around it. I honestly miss it still. Especially going out to our favorite restaurants and eating and drinking. We know bartenders everywhere.
Me too Saturday me too
