    a new day has begun

    hello community...

    I am on day 1 of getting control of my life...I am sitting alone in a hotel room trying to make sense of why I have so many difficulties with my drinking . My world has started to unravel and I must keep clean and sober for the sake of my sanity , my children and my wonderful husband..

    I am a binge drinker and have had this battle for more than 20 years. My father was an alcoholic along with 4 of my brothers and my twin sister......I am looking forward to this new life of sobriety and welcome any words of encouragement

        Welcome Columbia! I was a binge drinker too so you are not alone. Hope to see you over in Newbies Nest. I am also new to the site along with a lot of other folks who are all here to support one another. It's an amazing place.
