Worried about myself

I wrote before how I was told by ER just to taper off. I'm still on half the amount I was drinking. ER said to throw away a drink a day which I thought was ridiculous as I'd already gone 3 days without it. So I cut it down to half. I'm seeing my psychiatrist tomorrow who will definitely give me benzos. I wish I hadn't listened to them and just kept going as I've spent the last 2 days in bed with bad hangovers and just feeling dreadful. I think the public health system sucks.

I went to another doctor yesterday (not ER) and she diagnosed the chest pains as being from chest wall inflammation so I'm on a tablet which is really helping. The problem is that I have to give up smoking as well to get rid of the chest pains. It all just seems too much to handle when I can barely even get out of bed or cook for myself. A big thankyou to all who replied on my other thread. I just needed to vent and tell people who understand.
