Lisa,
I will say it again......
I think you need lots of support to quit. you need someone on the other end of a phone or in person.
a forum is a lousy way to get close support.
it is not a substitute for close support. AA is one of the best things available.
You should not try to substitute this forum for AA.
I know some of the others are well meaning & you can get support here. it should be secondary to AA.
AA will assign you a "big brother /sister" that will be available when you need help.
a terse response does not mean uncaring. I do hope you get the help you need.
typed words are not the same as a friend you can talk to.
