Today I am grateful for:
This is a biggie. My husband asked me for a divorce 3 months ago and I was devastated. I didn’t drink. I used the tools I have learnt and today I got the key to my own home. I am so grateful to be starting a new chapter with my boys.

For the first time today in AGES I wanted a drink. I actually even said to my husband, a glass of wine would make this less grim. He laughed & said, never just one glass though. It’s ok to have thoughts of drinking, but I know what to do not to not act on them

It's my 40th birthday soon. I have lots of emotions around my birthday as I was not wanted and adopted. I'm torturing myself with what if no one does anything for my birthday because I'm still worthless. This is a deep hurt and I'm nervous sharing it.
