This week has been very challenging for me. My 15 year old son was diagnosed with a major heart disease and I just broke. I feel so scared.

It will be ok. I know it's easier said than done however you can't fix it issue. Drinking definitely does not solve let alone fix the issue/problem.

You're not alone in this. We are here/hear for you.

Drinking never makes things better . You need to realize that you're (we are) allergic to alcohol and drugs. When we consume them 1 is not enough we want more. Once we consume it our body reacts in a manner that makes us do STOOPID things that we regret later.

Ashley, always welcome! I was a chronic relapser and started to think I was hopeless. But then I really got sick and tired of being sick and tired. That was when I got super serious in the AA program, got sponsored, did the 12 steps, helped out at meetings and listened to successfully sober folks advice.
17 years of grateful sobriety.
I’m totally here for you if you want to talk or have any questions

Recovering from Alcoholism is the best defense against the first drink.. As stated in the Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous..

I found it helpful to not keep track of clean time. The more I made things or constructs a load bearing part in my recovery and my life the more responsibility you give it. Which means it becomes a dependent. Try and sit with self and asses you and what makes you find your stability and then take inventory. You might just get a clearer read of what you need to include or exclude for yourself and world to find a harmony.
