Welcome back misscostalot. I'm glad you are realizing that alcohol makes all of the problems you are facing worse, it really does. I think seeing a therapist sounds like a great start - make sure you are very honest about your drinking patterns and other meds. Alcohol can actually reduce the effectiveness or have bad interactions with many meds so please be careful with that too.

AA or any other kind of meeting based recovery would probably be a great choice right now. For one thing, it would keep you from going and hanging out in bars on the weekends - there are so many more things you could be doing than hanging out there. People go to bars to drink, not to help themselves get better, right?
