I finally admitted I have a drinking problem. I can't have just one, and until I learn to be responsible with Alcohol I don't need it. I don't want my 10 month old daughter to ever see me like this. What can I do to help stay busy? Any tips yo how I can stay strong?

EDIT: HOLY ****! I just got back to this from break. Thank you all for the advice and the positive feedback. Seeing how many of you were in similar circumstances really makes me feel hopeful! Here's to you all!

First thing is what you have done is to know you have a problem. if you cant drink and stop when you need to then dont drink at all. It called self control. I know its hard but thats what i have learned to do. Also there are groups like AA where you can talk to others just like you. And yes you dont your child to see you like that. She will eather growup thinking its ok or she will dislike you or even hate you for it. Now is the time to get away from drinking. Take baby steps at first. You can do it with or without help. I will send prayers you way
