Your children should never see you drunk.
Mine have & I hate that more than anyone will ever know.
I was never mean; I was a "happy drunk", but it's still unacceptable and they are a large part of why I'm 224 days sober as of today.
If you have an issue, deal with it before you do something your children can't un-see.

How long before the DUI?
How long before there was a "bad night"?
How long before I did something they'd never forget?
It makes me sick to think of it to be honest, but I share here for others who may be struggling.
There is a way to break free, you don't have to hit that point

If absolutely nothing else and you're on the fence, read this piece on the books that helped me: https://thefamilyalpha.com/books-that-helped-me-get-sober/

It helps.
If you're ready to quit, DMs are open, let's start that discussion.

I had no intention of making this a thread.
I'm on vacation with my family & I was thinking of how I am so fucking glad I'm sober.
Removing alcohol is the greatest gift I've ever given myself & the second best decision I've made in my life with joining the Navy being the first.

What’s funny is, removing the alcohol was way easier than forgiving myself for the energy, time, & money wasted.
I ended up writing a piece on this because it sucked so bad;
I had to get it out of my soul to share with others who may be in the same boat. https://thefamilyalpha.com/how-to-forgive-your-former-addicted-self-3-steps-to-peace/
