Tetrax I drank wine alone every night for twenty years over a breakup. I basically gave up the possibility of connecting with people or a significant other because the only thing I relied on to fulfill my emotional needs was a bottle or two of wine every night. I have only recently completely stopped (24 days) but I feel so much better that even being alone is much better. Also, I'm actually relying on other people via the SR site. The good energy has made such a difference in my life. Give sobriety a try. It is not going to work if you are drinking and posting. Your feelings change when you stop drinking. The first three weeks I cried every day. I thought something was severely wrong with me. But then it stopped and every day I feel chemically more balanced. I still have a lot of work to do to straighten out my life. But you have to make a choice. Is a bottle of wine going to substitute for genuine human connection for the rest of your life? That is the choice that I saw before me.
