You can climb out of it. If you quit drinking. You are not going to make headway, or find a solution, as long as you are drinking. We lose our ambition, our motivation, our rationale thinking, while drinking. Of course we aren't going to change our lives. Our drinking is sabotaging our good intentions.

However, stop drinking and see what happens. Your life sucks because of your drinking. We feel sorrow and shame because we need to make changes, but drinking prevents us from doing so. We drink to escape and the cycle continues because of our shame and guilt. See the connection here? I still have wreckage, but I'm grateful for the knowledge and strength I've gained getting to the point that I'm at today. Have hope and trust in a solution. Drinking and feeling sorry for ourselves is a pointless, miserable cycle. It takes time to clean up our messes, but it can be done if we stay sober. Drinking only creates a bigger hole.
