    Can definately not do that. Cannot involve family, gotta do this on me own. Unfortunate really, but its the only way

    Don't think you can do it on your own, I couldn't. From what you've said, I'd think your mum should cope.

    i tried on me on.. lasted 29 days....

    youve tried on your own before :p ........

    you have to let it out and tell 'real life' people.....
    you have to experiance that humbling feeling of the
    words 'im an alcoholic' for it to really hit you.....

    AND yes there are worse things than being an alcoholic....

    someone who wont admit it & someone who dosent realise it... and
    someone who does no but hasnt/wont do anything about it...

    and yes i have been all 3 of them xxxxxxxxx
    Heaven wont let me in & Hell's too scared i'd take over :kiss:
    Alcoholics do it till they pass out :o:D :;)
    THE MORE I NO THE LESS I UNDERSTAND :o
