I am new here and need to talk to other people to help. I am 39 years old have a wonderful 6 yr old daughter and have schizoaffective disorder and have i am an alcoholic. have been sober only two weeks and it is very hard. I have a hard time because i usually start drinking by 5pm. I am on new meds that you can not have any thing to drink at all, i just get so frustrated that i cant control this! I use to go to AA and had 7 yrs of sobriety at one time and then i got very lost! just need some feedback just trying to take it one min at a time

Welcome to PC. And taking it one minute at a time is fine. I can relate. But remember every day you don't drink is a day that you're making a positive healthy choice for you and your daughter. I agree it really is hard, it's especially hard to go it alone. Would going back to AA be an option?

You are doing well. Maybe consider going back to AA?

My bf (ex) is an alcoholic. All I can say is dear - you have a daughter. Alcohol destroys relationships and will make your daughter unwell. Think of her and of your relationship with her every time you want a drink. Have some tea instead. xx
