Only thing that helps is a drink or a pill
Dandy,
I’m sorry you are suffering. The problem with relying on alcohol for that release, in my experience, is that the price you pay is terribly high. The suffering that came with drinking was as bad or worse than the emotions I was running from. You may find the same.
There are other ways. I didn’t expect it when I got sober, but those strategies have become a defining part of my life and have brought me lots of peace.
Best wishes,
