Counselling

I haven't posted for a while.

Another Monday morning " it's all going change/never again/ that's me finished etc etc". But this Mon morning, for the first time, I phoned and arranged counselling. The service have agreed to provide telephone counselling because I have anxieties about anonymity, mainly because of my job.

I am not sure what I will gain from/ am hoping for from counselling, I just feel I need to try again and try something different.

Yesterday, I got news of a childhood friend who is gravely ill. My oldest friend died in April. Neither of these illnesses were alcohol related. I have a body that could be healthy and I am screwing it up. I have a duty to myself and my family to stop this.

What have others gained from alcohol counselling?
