Financial implications of drinking

Hi,
Been a member on here for a while where I've posted about my 'success' of going a week or so without drink. I live in the UK, have a decent job that pays my rent, outgoings, and leaves enough for me to live comfortably. I'm currently in a relapse situation (again!!) and today pawned my playstation because I've spent my entire wage with two weeks til payday. Been doing ok recently, probably the best in ten years of days without drinking. I'm 36 and came out the pawn shop thinking "what am i doing". This is destroying me, every time I get in a good place, I ruin it. I'm thinking when I've got my cash, 'right get enough food til payday then see whats left'. Thought I'd hit rock bottom before, but no, I have now.
