Hi Kelly,
My miserable job was a huge factor in my drinking. I felt like I was a failure because I was better educated and qualified than my peers yet I was stuck in the same level job as them. I drank from 6pm until I passed out every night of the week. I would usually be 20 mins late the next morning at least 2 or 3 times a week. I didn't care. I was just watching the clock for 5pm so I could hit the liquor store. I don't do Yoga, AA, or counselling, but I did do 35 days of in-patient rehab. That completely changed my outlook on life. On a daily basis, I read from this site, which I find the most effective since I can come here when I am most vulnerable, when Im home alone.
