Hi Caper. I'm new to this site. This is the first time I've been here. I have to say you summed it up. I am an adult child of an alcoholic and have definitely not kept myself in control. Although I am a working, responsible parent during the day, at night I start to panic if I'm down to a six pack. I made a decision yesterday that it's time to start living, and find myself going through the flu-like symptoms. I have been beating myself up for so many years and find myself really alone. Although I am an outgoing person, I'm finding excuses not to go anywhere so I can stay home and drink. I can see my children slipping away from me. Is it physically dangerous to try to do this alone? Any answers or experiences would be greatly useful. Thanks for helping me not feel so alone. I know exactly what you are going through or have gone through.
