[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure I used to get drunk sometimes in my 20s; but it was when I had my first a decade ago that my stress level got so high that I would start to have a glass of wine - for example - at home alone. I had no family nearby - I had a full time job, ds had issues. And in that decade - nothing has changed. I still am responsible for the lions share of things with my kids and work full time and don’t have a village.
I say this bc as it pertains to the warning today - that for me (parenting) was the tipping point. And it’s not about - hahah ‘mommy wine!’ - it’s - ‘oh holy cow - every hour of my day is kind of stressful now - how do I not burn out so much that I need to quit my job?’

Anyone else relate? [/quote]

Sorry this will seem hard but you need to wake up. See it is not really the kids or handling it better in your 20’s because you were drink by yourself before the kids. You had and still have an issue with alcohol. You were drinking alone and drinking to escape. Drinking does not remove stress. You justify your drinking because you like the way it makes you feel. Now you are just 10 to 20 years down the line and alcohol is taking its toll. It will only get worst as move time pass.

You will always find away to make excuses for drinking.[/quote]
