I wanted the good meal and my grandparents too but, even if that had been possible, I'm not sure it was really what I needed - what I *really* needed was to accept my position, make a lasting decision for change and do something different with my life.
There's many different approaches and methods of recovery around - here's some links to some of the main UK players & resources:
The National Alcohol Helpline-UK - Tel: 0800 917 8282 Offers help to callers worried about their own drinking; support to the family and friends of people who are drinking; advice to callers on where to go for help.
Alcoholics Anonymous (A.A.) Great Britain Home - SMART Recovery UK Addaction | Drugs & Alcohol Addiction and Recovery: Support - Help - Advice
local UK services directories
Alcohol services | Alcohol Concern Find more health services - Alcohol addiction support - NHS Choices
I also recommend you visit the
Secular Connections forum if you think you may benefit from a non 12 step approach.
I also agree with awuh that medical assistance is probably a good idea before anything else. Detox can be troublesome sometimes, especially if you're coming off a bender.
You can also ask their advice about moving forward too
