Lunarsoft ~ Welcome. I agree with so much that has already been said.
I understand that you want to try this on your own and it is a free place to talk. But I would let her know that you are going to try, but be honest with her. Tell her she needs to work on herself too! Fair is fair if you ask me.
The sad thing that happens to us alkies is that we can do 100 things right with no praise what so ever, but the second we do one thing wrong...BAM!! It's cause we drink. It's not fair and it's a double standard, but it is also a fact of life.
All you can do is concentrate on you. Get yourself healthy and happy. The clarity that sobriety will bring your life will be amazing. Truly amazing.
Best of luck to you.
Love, Me
