I had to come back & now I don't know where to start.
Right now I'm feeling so many different emotions but yet I still feel nothing. I just keep sinking lower instead of climbing out. I feel like I'm a total failure at least as a mother. All of my kids are using my middle son has been in rehab and has to go back into residential rehab. I have 1 person I know I can talk to without any comments or judgment but don't get to talk to him as much as I use to. I'm completely alone & don't know what else to do.

Being a parent is one of the hardest jobs out there. That's good that your kids at last are in rehab and not out using, it's a step.
Addiction and alcoholism tends to run in families. I know they run in mine. They are genetic.
Have you thought about seeing a therapist? that would give you someone receptive and helpful to talk to and might help with the conflicts and difficulties which you are facing.
