If you need help, call your local AA group. If you don't want to do that, contact me.
It sounds like YOU need help. You can't help anyone until you help yourself.

Well that's just not true, you have to avoid the blind leading the blind but talking to someone going through the same things you are going through always helps

No offense, But this would be a mistake for anyone to do... With you being so soon in trying to solve YOUR problems, I would think you are not qualified enough to help anyone else...
Goodluck.......

Maybe it's just too early but I'm confused. Are you sober or are you saying that you keep falling off the wagon?
Posted on 5/7/14 at 5:49 am to RealityTiger
I think the latter

Why.the hell.is.everyone up so early?
Posted on 5/7/14 at 5:58 am to RealityTiger
The latter.

Bruh, don't drink it's easy.

We're you drinking when you wrote that?
From one functioning one to another, good luck my friend.
I don't drink near as often as I used too and it's been awhile but when I do I don't have a problem. I finish all of it no problem.

I'm usually pretty careful not to shite on AA too much in these threads, I think it's counter-productive. But here's an interesting book on how to treat alcoholism as a psychological condition (instead of a spiritual problem). Unfortunately, the author does shite on AA a lot, but if you can get past that part it's a good read.

Go to a meeting, open your ears, and not your mouth,
we make all kinds of excuses why we drink, because of this, because of that, we drink, because we're drunks nothing else,
The old timers didn't sugar coat anything when I got sober,
It's easy, but not simple, don't drink, go to meetings, and talk to some old timers
Oh I forgot I've been sober 30 years, It's worked for me

This is the kind of over-simplification that AA throws around that is dangerous. Say a person was dealing with clinical depression and turns to drinking to cope, there might be more to deal with than just "you're a drunk".

One factor working against you is how cool the media and everyone else portrays drinking alcohol - and alcoholism, for that matter - to be. It's not that cool. Especially when you're at the point of addiction. It's not cool at all. It's misery. But the media never - or, at least, very rarely - portrays it that way. . . And by media, I mean TV, movies, commercials, etc.
I can somewhat appreciate your struggle. I have a friend and a family member with alcoholism.

If thats the case, he on prescribed medication to combat the depression,
We think, I'll drink so I won't be depressed anymore. Next day depression is back,happens everyday.
People get hooked on pain killers everyday to cope

I used to be this way and sure enough the problems I thought I was drinking away were there the next day... I have drinking for over 30 years... Have stopped at times for a year or so, But I have settled myself into being a functional allky. Just the way it is.....
