第1单元 戒酒
If I didn't get help I may have lost my daughters forever. That was the reason I sought treatment. I first began drinking at parties, dinners and othersocial gatherings . Then I began drinking on my own at home and work.
如果我不求助，我将永远失去我的女儿，这就是我寻求治疗的原因。我一开始是在宴会、晚餐和社交聚会上喝酒，后来我开始在家中和工作场合喝酒。
I was fired from my job because I had lack of focus. I went on social assistance from the government .My daughters saw the worst of me and began not to trust me.
我因为注意力涣散，而被炒鱿鱼，之后便过着向政府领取社会补助的日子。我女儿看到我最糟的一面，变得不信任我。
They would come home from school unsure of what they would find. They didn't know if I would be drunk or sober, angry or happy.
她们从学校回家，不确定自己会看到什么景象，她们不知道我是酒醉还是清醒，生气还是高兴。
The day my little girl pulled away from me when I went to hug her was the day I realized I had to get help for my problem. I went to a center for alcoholics.Through the help of socialworkers, my children and I received living assistance and guidance.
有天当我想抱小女儿时，她却挣脱，我才发现我需要求助，解决问题。我到一家戒酒中心，通过社工的协助，孩子和我获得生活的协助和指引。
Now two years later, I am sober. If I ever feel like a drink, I just think of my girls and remember how good it feels to hug them again.
两年后，我戒了酒。现在如果我想喝酒，我就会想到我的女儿，以及能够再度拥抱她们是多棒的感觉。
