I don't even feel the need to drink heavily when I'm in bars, just the comfort of knowing that there's some at home that I can drink and escape myself.

I really hate what I've done and am doing to myself.

I think you are doing yourself a great favor by knowing that there is a problem, it is a start and an accomplishment on it's own.
I have beaten myself up quite similarly and that never helped me. Trying to take action like I am now does! I am too early into my own sobriety to give you a lot of advice, but luckily we have all these great people here that have walked this path before us and who are willing to share their experiences.

Take care
