I need HELP
Yesterday was a lie!!
A kid I knew put a 45 to his head and ended what should have been a very long and good life.
I lied to my work and my wife so that I could drink!
I am at the stage where I dont know what to do, I need help, but I know if I seek help, everything that I am and have worked for is over.
I can either ask for help and loose everything or wait and maybe get in trouble and loose everything.
I thought I was doing so good, last month I drank only six days which out of thirty was a fifth of what I normally do and then I lost it.
Here I am again, depressed, hurting, unsure....

Dear tffox444,
I'm sorry for your sadness and trauma.
Sounds like there is a good chance you will lose "everything" either way. So why not choose help (and hope). Things may not turn out how you're dreading they will. Life is funny like that.
Please ask for help.
Ellie

It doesn't have to be a given, that everything you are and have worked for is over just because you seek help. Beginning recovery does mean that there needs to be changes in one's life, that's for sure. But, it doesn't necessarily mean losing everything you have.
And, in my opinion, recovery and living an honest life, is the most important thing.
