I am a 51 year old wife, teacher and mother of 2. I have a 21 year old son and a 25 year old daughter. New intro...I am sober and love it! It isn't always easy but it is always worth it! Old intro...I am fighting this damn drug called alcohol. I have been a weekend binge drinker for 30 years. I binge 2-3 times a month on a Friday or Saturday, but alcohol kicks my butt every single day of my life. I am sick of it!

End of Day 3
Finally, finally I feel better tonight! I have some energy back, my heart rate has stopped racing, my anxiety is a little better and I feel at peace with my decision - at least for the moment!I forgot how somehow freeing it can be to just know I am not drinking this weekend. Like at least for the moment the mental battle has subsided. My brain feels a little calmer, a little more relaxed. One day/weekend at a time. Sometimes is really stresses me out to think about next weekend or my birthday in a couple of weeks or a vacation 6 months from now. I am going to try to just focus on the here and now and right now I am glad I am not drinking,
