Hi VC - The more tired I got, the closer I got to finally giving up. I ran out of ways to combat this disease too. I think something clicked for me when I finally realized things weren't going to be different the next time I drank. I could count on more and more days of the same. And it would get worse. One of the things that helped me make the decision was that I didn't want to end up in the hospital (couldn't afford it).
We're not stronger or better or smarter than you - we're just a little further along in the process. You really can do this. Give up your pride and get help - you deserve it!
