Beginning a New Sobriety Journey Tomorrow

I started my sobriety journey last Saturday and I already broke it today. My fiance showed up with a 6 pack after i got home from work. We have been talking about separation. We have a 3 month old, a 3 year old, and an 11 year old. I cannot stop the urge to drink.

That’s terrible to hear, I went through a separation during early sobriety as well, it’s not easy, it’s not easy if your sober either but manageable

It sounds cliche but the time to stop is now, I get it emotions are high what next is of the questions to be had.

But it is harder to concentrate and think clear minded while using any mind altering substances
