Hi again

Counselling may help...so may AA, or some other recovery programme. Here a few links

http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...resources.html

There's also options like inpatient or outpatient rehab...your doctor may have some other ideas.

I'm sure others here may have ideas too.

You're not rubbish - you're addicted. Maybe you're underestimating how much you need to work at this? I know I did.

It's really hard to change your life.

You really need to be committed, and be prepared to work hard, and you really need to cultivate some kind of support network.

It's a truism to say nothing changes if nothing changes.

I looked back and I can see a lot of ambivalence in your posts. You want to quit for your son, for sure, but how much do you want to quit for you?

It's worth thinking about.

I know one thing - it never gets better...it only gets worse.

But it is possible - entirely possible - and you're not alone here
Welcome back
