I've watched alcohol destroy someone I love. My S/O has always enjoyed beer and drinking. In our earlier years of course he was "irresponsible". We were in our mid/late 20's when we started to date. We had 2 children; he worked a lot and long hours so I could be a stay home mom. So…

Alcohol you sneaking bitch Creeping in like a midnight snitch You come to call like the grim reaper with your hold so tight I silently pray for the morning light You've broken homes, families - you've dimmed the light It's never a dragout but a lightweight fight I hate you alcohol You take a man,...

Living with an alcoholic is hell. Literally hell. You never know what type of "drunk" you're going to get. It could be a "fun" one; you're playing games, you're listening to music, you're enjoying each others company/the situation. Or it could be the "flip on a dime" one; you have to walk on eggs...

I found out about my community Facebook group at this public board meeting I went to, and the admins accepted me today. I went scrolling back through past post and I am stocked about living here. People here are having community patio parties, holiday parties in the clubhouse, paint nights and Eu...

I did really well. I woke up.  I worked from 9-5. Then my partner went out ... and I turned down doing out with him because I didnt want to drink... and then I instantly drove to the liquor store and brought beer. I've had 3 in 20 minutes because I want to drink as…

Well i did it. Its 9.11pm and I'm getting tired from a day of boredom and stress and making myself distracted every 2 seconds with horrible chores. My partner wanted to go out tonight... so I had to tell him that I'm trying to quit drinking and I dont feel comfortable going out because it'll…
