Hi Goatinthegarden, I won't tell you off lol you've got to get into the mind set that drinking is NEVER an option if you want to remain sober. Not the time of the month, not because your having a rough day, not for any reason. EVER
Find something else to rely on. Go for a walk, take a nice bubble bath, go to a meeting. It's up to you to find your own solution. We can suggest and give support, but the DOING comes from within yourself.
Best Wishes To You!!
