Welcome back! What have you tried on the past? What’s your plan this time around to stay on track? I found putting down the drink was the easy part. Staying stopped is where the hard work comes in. I have to put the same amount of effort into my sobriety that I put into drinking. Since I was an everyday drinker, I have to do something to help my sobriety daily. That consists of going to AA,meetings or coming on this forum. I know I will lose anything I put in front of my sobriety.

You have it you make a change. Its work day by day. It gets easier with time. Get a support group, share, show your son you can and will. I believe in you.
