When you see an intoxicated man in the gutter, people think "What a drunk," but if you see an intoxicated woman in the gutter, people think "What a drunken whore." This is the stigma alcoholic women endure. Most alcoholics prefer not to talk about their experiences with alcohol and how it effected everything around them. I don't mind telling you about my life and my past experiences, because I want to be a teacher by sharing my experiences. This may help stop other women from making the same mistakes I made. I feel that I have walked through fire and came out okay and by surrendering and accepting what is. Before we can change anything in our lives, we have to recognize that this is the way it's meant to be RIGHT NOW. By surrendering and accepting the belief, and know you are going to be alright. I surrendered and accepted my past and learned how to live a prosperous life again. I am living proof that YOU CAN DO IT It will get better every day. I dedicate this book to all my family.
