Sorry you are struggling.

You are on this site because deep down you KNOW alcohol really doesn’t help. If t did, you wouldn’t be drinking two bottles of wine a day, daily.

It will kill you.

Welcome to sober recovery! It’s a great place of support for those seeking permanent sobriety, or those who aren’t quite in that mind frame yet. We do not support attempting trying to sustain “moderation”, as that is basically impossible.

Advice? Get sober, get to medical professional and be honest, brutally honest of your drinking history and desires. Make a plan to stay sober with some tools (plans, rehab, social support, etc) when your mind frame is there.

Breathing is good, and there are many tools out there.
Many of us drank to supposedly ease anxiety. But it wasn’t working for us.

Being free from the chains of addiction help tremendously. Being totally free of our anxiety issues is NOT attainable, even sober, so a reasonable goal must be established.

And lastly, but really important, get that social support. Here, AA, SMART, friends, relatives.
