I am 30 years old and I'm an alcoholic

That’s such a. Inspirational message. And I couldn’t even have put it into words. You literally took the thought from my head. Thank you so much!

You’re welcome. Now, stick with us. Your child needs a good mom, as you’ve said in the past. You are that, and can be even better.

I have 5 boys myself. I often feel like I’m failing them. But, let me tell you that all you have to do is to let children undeniably know that you love them and try. Try try try. Never give up. If it takes you a thousand years, you will win.

I turned 31 last month and am also an alcoholic. I spent all day yesterday hungover at work with half my face scraped up from a fall I don’t remember taking New Years Day because I was blacked out. You can do this! I’ve been trying to think positive. Just think- you’re quitting at 30 gives you potentially 30+ years of a sober and happy life! Something I have to be careful of is the hangover fog lifting and my brain trying to convince me that it wasn’t THAT bad. This time I’ve got physical proof and pain that I’m not ok. Stay strong!! You can do it!

I turn 30 next month, and I hit my one year mark on the 20th this month. It’s tough but it’s possible. Most important thing is to take it one day at a time, and reach out when struggling but also on good days. I’m here if you need to talk, and that goes to everyone on here. I was definitely a functioning alcoholic. So I get how many of the people I have told were shocked. But stay strong and blessed be!

You got this girl. The 1st day is always the worst, but tonight you will sleep and not wake up hungover. Like my husband always tells me if you cant do it for yourself at least do it for your kids.

You can do this!! One breath at a time, one step at a time, one day at a time @MissyJ
