Hi Jennifer,
I too am an alcoholic and could have written your opening post. Same age, same habit, the only difference is that my husband turns a blind eye to the drunken elephant in the room, which I will never understand. I joined this site last May, and it provided me with the support and motivation to stop drinking for over 5 months. I felt really good about myself during that period of sobriety, absolutely life is better sober. Unfortunately in October (at my husband's birthday dinner) I allowed myself to believe that moderation was an option for me. It has been a struggle since.
Stick close to the site, for it is a healthy place to be. What I have learned from this site is that sobriety requires daily maintenance. I hope have a great day today, and I look forward to getting to know you!
