Another Dinner Down The Sink.
I've had many a dinner party like yours. One was on an Easter Sunday. For people like us..one drink wont do it. we can get enough. One drink and we are at the point of no return. What do you want the end result to be? Happiness? productive member of society? loving partner? Alcohol wont help you with any of that. I would make a call and get some help. Its a tough thing to do but you are saving your life!
feel like I need to give you guys the run down....somewhat.
2004-lost job (not due to dinkining)
2004 Liver failure
2006-hip replacement ( Avascular Nacrosis-due to drinking)
2007-cancer (Sqamous Cell Carcinoma-due to drinking)
2008-hip replacement (same reason)
2011-need knee replacment (same reason)
The worst, for me, was the cancer....feeding tube, radiation, chemo.....I went from 185 to 116 pounds in a matter of weeks. Still today, can't really taste most things, still thin.......and can I just ask, why do people think its ok to tell someone they need to gain weight.....but not ok to tell someone.....you're to fat?

VL...only you can decide to take the forst step and get the help you need. Only you can make the call to the people who can and will help...look at the link sailor posted for you.
You know you want a better life.... but trying to do it alone has not worked for you....
Do something different T... or you will only ever get what you have always got.
Please please do something.... we want you to live and be sober... b ut we cant do it for you.

2004 will continue to occur unless you get some help. You should really seek professional help. I just got out of inpatient rehab and believe me, it's definitely worth it. If you want to salvage your life and your relationship, then you need to do this.
I had many of nights like you with my partner and after a while, he will get sick of it and leave unless you make some drastic changes. We're only talking about your life here
I hope you can find it in yourself to do what needs to be done before it's too late.

Yeah we do get it. Many have been where you are, many worse. Regardless, we all know where it ends up and you HAVE to stop if you want the way your life is going to STOP. I'd love to tell you keep on drinking or its OK, no big deal. I'd love it for myself if the solution was just to go buy some beer or wine or vodka, whatever. How easy. Its not. It only makes thing worse. It will only keep you in the same cycle you have been in. You don't like what you've done, you don't like where you are. Time to make a change and you can only do it through taking action to do it.
VL...you are in my thoughts and prayers...if I were in SF I would try and go to you...but I can't. We can only post here and beg you to call 911. We do understand...we have all been in the same place you are now.
Hugs.
Hugs.
Forward we go...side by side-Rest In Peace
