Yeah, that's exactly what this situation needs: you getting drunk. That's probably the best way to get your daughter back. That's probably the perfect thing to address issues with your wife. That's probably the 1 thing that needs to happen to make everything all better.


...Either that, or it's the worst possible thing you could do.

Now, if you think drinking is the right way to handle this, if you think it will make you feel better (really feel better, not just feel drunk) and make things better in your life, then by all means, please continue.

But if you don't think that, then why on Earth would you do it? So you can cause more heartache for yourself, just to get upset and depressed about that and then go drink again?

Pretty sure you know the right thing to do here, and the wrong thing. It's up to you which one you choose.
