I am thinking I should just finish school the way I have been going, and then finding some type of treatment. Then when I come out I will be clean and have my BA. I don't know what to do, I really don't. I accepted the fact that I am an alcoholic a long time ago, I have a propensity for drinking. Is it good for me , probably not, but look how many people have over eaten themselves into obesity, and diabetes II, how many people smoke, or drink coffee.. coffee is a drug also. I am probably not thinking clearly, and I am extremely angry today. Or atleast the addict in me is very angry today.
Sounds to me like you got the good grades IN SPITE of your drinking. Not BECAUSE. Im confused.........you say if it kills you,..so be it.....I dont get that statement. If drinking kills you,...then what good will any of these good grades be? You're getting good grades so your quality of life will be good. But you say you cant GET the good grades unless you drink yourself to death. ????? That IS quite the pickle.
