Feel so ashamed

[namechangedyetagain]

I drank a whole bottle of wine last night. A whole bottle. Half term is a struggle. Weather not good, bickering children, short of money (pay day today). Just feeling very wobbly in general.

And now i hate myself even more. I'm a shitty mum and the children deserve better.

Really feel for you. My boys are older now (20 and 17) but I remember so well how hard it was when they were bickering all day and I was trying my very best to be a good mum. Don't worry about the wine-just make sure you don't drink a whole bottle every day.

I hope you had a great day out : )

Well done OP

Said with kindness, but what is that terrible awful about a bottle of wine?

It's not like you necked a litre of scotch and had a 2l white lightning chaser.

A bottle of wine? So what?
(I drink rarely but I wouldn't bat an eyelid at that. Would be more worried about drinking enough water before bed!
