Day 1

I have decided to reach out to others for help.  I know that I am not alone.  I just need to find some connections with others struggling like me or from those who conquered the same struggles.  I cant ask my friends and family because I don't think they understand what I am feeling.  They don't see the pain I feel because I am good at hiding it.  But enough is enough.  I NEED to take care of myself.  I NEED to do this for my own well-being and for my children.  I want to enjoy life and have energy and excitement.  Today, I am going to set one simple goal: not drink any alcohol.  I also wrote in 2 support groups.  Maybe someone will respond....
