Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

i started drinking at the beginning of this year, at least all the time, i've drank since i was 18, but then, in may i turned 21. i never had much of a problem getting it before i turned 21, i just had to go through a friend, but then when i turned 21, i was buying a six pack every night and drinking the entire thing. not even drinking socially, but in my room, alone. i did it to try to numb the pain and the depression. now, almost 6 months later, i am still drinking every night and now during the day i've been going through withdrawal. so i end up drinking in the middle of the day. and i can't seem to stop. i'm in counseling for my depression, and i've told her that i drink quite a bit, but i tend to make it a point not to show that it worries me and that i'm starting to think i have a problem. i have always had a lot of issues with addictions. i was a smoker from age 12 to 20, the only reason i quit that is because i had to be put in the psych ward after a suicide attempt, and you can't even smoke on the property, so i went almost 2 weeks without a cigarette, and when i got home i tried to start again but it tasted like crap and while i was in the hospital i was diagnosed with asthma. so i quit. and i am still addicted to self-injury, and prescription pain killers. i also have another addiction that i choose not to mention. so i am prone to addictions i guess i could say, and it runs in the family. my grandfather was an alcoholic and basically drank himself to death, he had liver cancer. so i'm just wondering if i really do have a problem???

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Those were the two questions I had to ask myself. www.aa.org
Good luck and there's help IF YOU WANT IT.
