But the point is she's trying, and she seems to have met all her personal goals and is still a rockstar at the end of the day. Her children will be better for it. I wish my mom could have seen her progress and learned from it

    IMPORTANT NOTE: if you are deciding to quit drinking, PLEASE talk to your doctor first about safe detoxing. Alcohol withdrawal is the only type of recreational drug withdrawal that can be FATAL without inpatient treatment.

      @Quazi Roberts Technically, yes. Although the vast majority of benzo withdrawals arent life-threatening. Hospitals see far more morbidity and mortality from alcohol than benzo use. But yeah, dont quit your 20mg per day xanax addiction cold turkey.

Went to church but still I can’t get this life thing right. Smh days like this I just want to end it. My babies keep me here but how long will that last. I use to take Tylenol pills when I was 12 yrs old after my step father molested me. I just don’t know what to do anymore.

    I’m turning 26 years old next month, I’m a mom of four. My father drank beer every single day like it was water. Morning to night. When my sister and I were kids our father would visit us here and there but the older we got the more his addiction took him away from us. He passed away from kidney and heart failure in his early 50s. I see myself going in the same direction. It’s turned me into something I don’t want to be. Today I decided to stop. It’s a little scary. Please pray me me. I know I’m not alone.. I will pray for moms like me, on this path. I know I need a plan, something to vent and release into. Maybe I’ll try journaling.. wishing all the moms struggling with this addiction the best in life, freedom, clarity, peace. ❤

    @winfreyc2010 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    "Time to step it up": Though I'm not a mother, I relate the pressure we feel as women to be different than men in both our substance use disorders and in our recovery. We're told that our behavior, even the way we feel isn't "ladylike" and that we are bad/ugly/unfeminine for what we struggle with. While, at the same time, we are told that we have to be strong, powerful and break the glass ceilings, challenge the gender stereotypes (especially for GLBTQ women). Not to mention the standards we set for ourselves and our own self invalidation. Every time I try to "get sober", I treat my recovery like something that will make me a better person, someone who is able to inspire others, so I can better serve others. It's never truly been about me-how recovery might change my life for the better, how I might make positive new connections and grow personally, professionally or spiritually. I want my recovery to entail going back to school, finishing my degree, starting over in many ways, but never disposing of or forgetting who I am; I want to remember who I was before alcohol changed me. "I'm still there." I want to get to know myself again so I can let others know me and let the world be positively impacted by my authentic, brave, strong, inspiring presence.

    My mom is an alcoholic and I have so much resentment towards her because she chose alcohol over having a good relationship with me. She is about to loose her house and is constantly being hospitalized for cirrhosis of the liver. Alcoholism DOES affect family. She can pass at any point now. I will never understand WHY she chose this path. I appreciate this video but it’s really sad seeing young children having parents that are this way…. They deserve better but I’m glad your at least doing something, rather than my mom… she is still in denial. I have chosen to detach myself from her 100% and do not have contact with her… but imagine, it still hurts but it’s her choice. Due to her addiction, I have chosen to NOT drink. Not even a sip. How dare I even think about taking a sip knowing my mom passed down alcoholic tendencies to me. My children and family deserve better than to ever see me ever fall for alcoholism. Life is rough but drinking is NOT the way to cope with stress or depression and I don’t feel sorry for alcoholics. They did this to themselves.

      Even the love for my child couldn’t stop me drinking. And I really didn’t want to be drinking with a baby. But nothing worked until I got involved with AA. And worked through the steps. It’s an illness that’s all consuming and unless you make a decision, and then find the solution, there really is no hope. No one wants to be like this. Mothers don’t want to be like this. Praying for more people to hear about AA and the courage to take that first step into a meeting.

    I was inspired by her story. And at the same time I'd hope that she realizes other people have a lot of hurt to go through too and that it may be hard for them to express themselves and sometimes it may come through on that they're judging you. But if you can just try to use it to develop yourself and not to become hopeless. Sobriety is better because we're realizing we have to do something different. Hope it works out for her. There is a fiesty person in there, a fighter

    Alcahol brings out what is in you, if you're an angry person it makes you mean, meaner and meaner, if you're a nice person it just makes you nicer and nicer until you fall asleep, point being, some people shouldn't drink, if it's changing your life in a bad way, you should probably stop, if it isn't beneficial why do you want it..I understand alcohol addiction, i'm an alcoholic, the only thing I seem to want when I get home from work is a beer, but it just makes me nicer, and it gives me energy, but that's me, alcahol effects everyone differently, I have a couple of friends who drink a lot, and I have found, if you hang around with someone who drinks long enough you will find out what is in them, good or bad...

    Mommy Winehouse Syndrome - it’s a real thing, believe me! Sober mom is better. When you’re an alcoholic with children it not only affects you, it affects your husband and children also. Alcoholism is genetic. You could pass down that gene to your children. Children learn from their parents behavior. My dad was an alcoholic and I drank for many years. Even though I wasn’t an alcoholic I decided to stop drinking altogether. I did it on my own and I did it for me. I don’t have any children. It was one of the best decisions I’ve made! I have better overall health, glowing skin, less bloating and I don’t wake up with a hangover anymore!

    Cool vid. I also enjoyed the book "30 Days to Sobriety" by Harper Daniels.

    What if you drink to suffocate the demon?... There is another side to alcoholism that is seldom talked about.

    GOD also saved me from alcoholism. Jesus Himself stepped in. Praise to Him. ❤

    "I probably smell like booze."
    I got pulled over the other day, and for the first time in literal years this wasn't my first thought when it happened. I'll be 1 year sober in February ❤

    Why do alcoholic women sound drunk even when sober? I can tell right away when women have a drinking problem,

    Drinking takes away your presence and precious moments with your child. It dampens those priceless memories and steals your joy. Not worth it for your moment of dopamine “happiness.”

    Mummy wine culture proves how insidious alcohol can be. We'll use any excuse to make sure we can keep drinking.

      Sunshine Devela - I have 3 boys... they aren’t ONLY chaos creators but they absolutely add a level of chaos to life. Whatever... it’s not worth arguing about or being critical. This woman is sharing her story of struggle. It would be nice if people didn’t always criticize and judge people for speaking their truth.

    Alcoholics deserve no sympathy. At least the only people I see in these comments are others whose lives exist only in a bottle. The amount of cruelty alcoholics inflict on everyone around them should not be forgiven.
