Coming out as alcoholic to my family

I plan come out as an alcoholic to my family today.

I'm a single guy, never married, with three sisters. Both parents are deceased - I'm 62.

Just found out that the company I work for is being bought by another company and my job will disappear.

Because I've been a functional alcoholic for decades I have no friends. I drink alone at home after work.

So, in this time of crisis I have only my sisters to confide in. I've never told them I'm an alcoholic but I really need their support now and I feel I should get everything out in the open.

My life is going to go downhill very soon and I just need some human contact to make it bearable.

Wish me luck
