Who doesn't need love? But is your girlfriend's love going to make you sober? No it isn't. That's on you. Whether you get all the support and love in the world, or none. You have to do the work to recover.

And what has been your recovery plan? Have you been trying to willpower your way through this? Or have you sought support? Are you staying away from the pubs and drinking influences?

Get sober, get your moods on an even keel and chances are your relationship with your girlfriend will improve greatly.

Good luck.
