Back and not sure

Back poking around again at a few stories. I was posting here about six months ago. During Lent, I said that I was only going to drink on weekends, and avoided alcohol during the week. I did a good job during the week, but when the weekend would come I would binge. I drink about 6-12 beers a day after work. I have really be conscious of how much lately, and really disappointed in myself. I am a father and a husband, and have a good job. No one knows this is me, and it is my little secret from the world. I am scared, tired and depressed over this. I always thought alcoholism was a poor person’s disease or for people that had no self worth. I now look in the mirror as possibly one of these people and it scares me to death. I just want to be normal, and happy and to not spend all this money on booze. I feel regretful now, but I now that the work day is almost done and my habit will likely rise again.
