Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
Hi, I am new to the group. I am a 38 year old mom and wife. I have also been a functioning alcoholic since 2010.
I always knew if I started drinking it would develop into a severe addiction. Addiction runs in my family and has manifested in several forms for me. I've gained and lost 100lbs, quit smoking cold turkey but the drinking is proving to be my most difficult challenge.
I have had many day one's. I am determined that this will be my last day one and this time I will be successful.

On a normal night, I'm ready for bed (aka passing out) around 9pm. I went to bed at 11:30pm. Not because I was tired but because I was getting really really irritable. Normally, I don't dream. Last night it was a non-stop movie. Lots of nightmares and weird dreams.
Just proud I made it through day 1.
