Tib,
My heart goes out to you. I know you've mentioned the dual diagnosis before, so a pysch hospital might be a good place to be for a while until you get on your feet.
I understand the out of the box thinking. I also understand the damage done by some people's comments who somehow think they are doing you a favor when in reality it's quite the opposite. Ignore them.
The MOST important thing right now is for you to get well. If you go into the hospital for a bit this will break the cycle and get you off the booze. Your mind will be more clear. Dual diagnosis is tough to deal with. I have it too. In my experience, a two pronged approach to things is required (well, actually that is professional thinking these days) and a one size fits all approach definitely does NOT work. Please PM me if you ever want to talk.
