NA is free. There are 24 hr hotlines that will hook you up with someone you can talk to right now.

Among other things, I gave quite a lot of my life to crack. You can get free of it, but for me, it took 12 step recovery (I go to AA). Doing it alone didn't work for me.

Good luck on your job interviews. Find some help. It's out there, and it's free.

Peace & Love,
Sugah

Someone else may correct me - but I THINK you can go to the ER, and they will help you get into an inpatient for help, if that's what you want.

Good-Luck!

Salvation Army has a free inpatient program... religous based. NA is free. All require incredible commitment... you are beginning to sound like you might have that this time. Few find sobriety with their first shot - keep quitting.

(((hugs)))
