This place is GREAT and has really helped me get through the past few months. I had really hit a low point and coming here ultimately saved me. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate, but just think by quitting drinking you will have one less thing on that plate of yours.

I decided 4 wks ago to quit drinking and smoking. The reason I decided to do this is because I don't want to live in hell any more. I was also fedup feeling unwell, tired and lost. Two weeks after I quit, I found out I was pregnant. I lost it last saturday. I was very sad and I cried for several days. This was unexpected and I have two children. My son is eleven and my little girl is three. My son has special needs. He has autism and ADHD. If I have to be honest, this is the reason why I started to drink. My son is wonderful but he needs a lot of support and help. I find it difficult to manage my stress levels.
The reason I have decided to register is because I am scared that I will start drinking again and I dont want that for anyone. I want my family to be happy and enjoy life and I know they need me to be there for them without a hangover and a drink in my hand.
