    Just to update you guys, I'm totally drunk, wish I had someone to tlak to. Someone who'd take all the pain away.
    But life isn't liek that is it?

    Just realised, all my messgages, are either me saying how well I'm doing, or me saying I've hit rock bottom. Well, this is one of those rock bottoms :)
    Finished my bottle of ammaretto, had some baileys. Only think left is the vodka, gonna start on that now. Cos there sure isn't anything else to take the pain away.

    I probably sound like a complete mess, and you've guessed it, I am. I'm still wondering if I have an alcohol problem - maye I'm in denial when I say I don't? i can go without drink when things are good ('xept if i'm going out for adrink.) bUt as soon as things get tough, I reach for the bottle. But I feel guilty for using th title 'alcoholic' seeing as I've not really got a problem.

    Hopefully you guys understand.
    love you guys,

  • feelinggood, MSE is not the place to find the answers. You need help NOW and posting on a "self help" thread will not produce those answers.

    You do have an alcohol problem, there I have said it for you so go and get the help but unless you admit to an alcohol problem yourself you absolutely won't get anywhere.

    Get yourself to a doctor NOW over the alcohol and the depression but you have to be honest to yourself and the doctors.

    Its not a case of people on here understanding, you have to understand first.
  • Seeing as I don't have an acohol problem, I'll have another vodka!

    Fair enough if thats what you want to do but please don't knock the regular posters on this thread if you don't want to help yourself.

    Hi FG

    Things on a bit of a low then:eek:

    Not really sure I can help you at the moment:confused:

    I hope when you re-visit and read what you've written, that you'll realise drink isn't doing you much good.

    You need to see someone. Doctor or counsellor. Phone the samaritans even. This is an opportunity to do something. If you leave it now, the next time will be worse. It was for me.

    You're are better than this and you just need to prove it to yourself. Think how you've helped people. Me!, just by being there. I'm still around, so are the others.

    Please do something, you're worth it.

    I'll be around, not far away, all evening, so if you want to talk, just start and I'll try and catch up:D If not someone else will;)

    Sorry to anyone who I upset or 'knocked'. I suppose I was just lashing out, being so angry at the situation. Also wasn't very good at reading last night, so I misread a few things and took them the wrong way.
    Went to see the doctor today, gave me a few things to think about - I've got a couple of options, will try and make a descsion.
    Told her about the alcohol, she just said I shouldn't drink. How am I suppose to do that? I just seem to have no willpower - its alright when I don't want a drink, but as soon as I get a craving I just give in, can't seem to fight it at all. Was considering going to an AA meeting, but thing that would do more harm than good - I have a feeling that OH would just see it as me being dramatic and attention seeking, and I don't think I can cope with that at the moment. He was irritated enough by me just going to the doctors!
    Hope you are all doing good :)

    Hey AC, how are you today? Having a raging battle in my head, amongst other things I'm trying to work out if I do have a problem or not.
    Hard to explain, I feel like I maybe have a problem, but I don't think other people would think I do. OH for example, he'd just think I was saying it to get attention.
