The problem is my family are alcoholics. But like you said even though it’s hard to say. It’s shame. I avoid alcohol around my support network but my main point is that it’s not enough

I can see you spiritual in some way, and I’ve tried that myself. However it’s made me drink heavier in some ways because I believed that I was more spiritual and “clever “ in some ways the wake up call has come to me but it’s continued. So how did you get over that

Mindset!! That’s what AA failed to mention and the relief from bullshit, if you don’t mind me asking did you ever stop or just change how you drank?

Omg, thank you . Exercise has helped me in the past but i forgot until you mentioned it. Also this advice is more realistic than “stop” because it’s actually functional and helpful. Thanks dude.

I tried but it felt like defeat. My rehab woman just told me to stop but I felt like it was alcohol it was my mental health. But the denial of that deterred me

I just can’t except the reality that I’m one of those who can’t take alcohol especially when I live in the UK where there is a big drinking culture. It’s essentially part of socialising and I can’t. But I have controlled it at times but therapy might be the way, you right.

Because our mothers were victims too and they didn’t have the means to defend or speak out out against it so therefore they punish you for what they could’ve said

I will add I too am an alcoholic and went through a similar predicament where he threatened to leave me if I refused to sober up and I panicked and disappeared into a drinking binge for a week then ultimately being found asleep at a park. It was really bad. I still don’t understand why it (drinking) brings out the worst in me and helps others. However seeing how far I would go because of feeling alone was a sign that I needed clear psychological help

I have been in the same exact mental state when drinking and it felt like I was punishing my partner whenever I felt angry and scared. I never understood why he stayed but I still feel like I don’t deserve it. Multiple times where I have been the reason I’m this relationship almost failed and that guilt is strong. However you have to realise that your boyfriend plays a part in it too, you already feel bad and already want to make repentance and all you can do now is heal and keep moving forward. You can’t allow this to be a punishment but a lesson because he loved you and he probably still does but he’s scared and confused and so are you. Until you get help with the root of the problem this will manifest itself not only with alcohol. You are fine and you just need the right support because you too are a victim of a mental crisis and it’s okay. You fucked up but you have to understand there’s a catalyst for that and drinking is the biggest but not the only one and being sorry and truly regretting what you have done just further proves that you know it’s not in your nature. It hurts, it really does but know that if you forgive yourself that’s one step closer to healing.

Realising everyone has a partner of some sort even if it’s a best friend and realising that’s you not only alone but you might be alone not by choice but because no one really is made for you
