Am a single mum and have been since pregnancy.. I was a smoker of cannabis, as my daughter came along I no longer could handle smoking as I wanted to provide a good life for us. The cannabis, along with a new baby made me a nervous wreck with paronoid thoughts.
Anyway about 3 years after birth I finally gave it up. But what I didn't realise was that I was slslowly picking up the bottle. It all happened very quick, within 2yrs I was now depending on alcohol to make my worries better.
Every weekend it was a small bottle of vodka and orange juice... Then occasionally it was a bottle of lambrini on a weekday. And I would finish the whole bottle in one night sometimes.
I continued like this until I had a drink every night, when ever I was angry, upset, annoyed, happy or when the school holidays started. I would often find this depressing and drink it away.
So when I drove to work I knew I was drunk.. But am not the type who blacks out and falls over or abuse people when drunk.:h
