An ultimatum

Hi - first post here. I've been trying to quit drinking with limited success in the past little while. I had a friend over last night and he walked out because I wanted a beer before dinner. Yes, it is a big deal because I was plenty drunk already and it was pretty late to be eating dinner.
He sent an angry email when he got home basically stating that he's tried to help me as much as possible (he has), but until I can stop drinking he wants nothing to do with me.
I feel like he has a right to feel that way, but I also feel like he's trying to control me and of course I hate to feel controlled. I feel pretty crappy about myself today, but I need to respond. I just don't know what to say.
Any thoughts?
