Giving me tools and steps to help learn how to live one day at a time without a drop of alcohol. Go figure! Therapy is also a…[Read more]
Reading your post Autumn gave me overwhelming chills remembering those days. The sense of dread was suffocating. And then I would swear off drinking only to do it again.
