It's been tough. I nearly failed to pay rent, and had to borrow money from a friend to afford it. My finances have been an absolute bloodbath for nearly a decade, and I'm finally gearing up to go sober and really confront how much debt I have. It's going to be a tough year. But, on the whole, the week could have been worse! And, thankfully, a calm but enjoyable Sunday.
Sorry to hear you are going through a rough patch - I gave up drinking 25+ years ago and don't regret it, my life would definitely be worse if I'd kept going.
