I was in the same boat a little over a year ago. Didn't know if I wanted to live or die. The jumping off place. I stayed sober for a year and a half and went out. Now i"m back in. There is 100% in or out, for me. Today I choose in. I found a wonderful doctor after years of hell and now I can cope a whole lot better. Looking forward to seeing him on thursday.
you have friends right here to tell
you don't have to be alone
You don't have to go down, it's time to jump off and start up.
Have u been to a meeting?? If not I suggest to get to one.

Many people are not fortunate enough to have the motivation of a partner and children to give them reason to change ...it sounds like you want better for them. Let that be the foot that kicks your ass.
I'm new here, I find expressing myself on this board really hleps me. There is somethng extremely threputic in writing your thoughts and feelings down. I can't explain it but somehow it clears the fog.
It sounds like you have a lot to live for. Good luck to you.
