develop skills to rebuild trust
learn ways to nurture through basic family organization and honor family traditions
sorry for mistakes I have a keybord that has tantrums
I think you simple have to expain to her as best you can what happened in your life and how it all came about ,be honest about what lead to to be what you were and do what you did, Make no excuses,it doesnt sound as if you would tell her it as it was, and how you are trying now with help to turn your life around and hopefully hers also.The fact she is asking when will you be recovered tells you she wants to be with you and is concerned for you, this has been very hard on her and you, this illness you had and are recovering from is so damaging, the fact you are asking us and getting help is the big factor.Cjildren need both parents in their lives, be honest with her tell her how wrong you were and that although it takes a while you are recovering now .I can feel how much you care good luck to you and your daughter.We have an Alcoholics forum on MH they may have some more answers on dealing with it and any information for your daughter to read.
