It's a scary thought, but I think you're on the right road recognizing you need help. Don't worry about your friends; the true ones will be there for you regardless, and the ones who have an issue with you bettering yourself you don't need around. I hope you stick to your guns and seek help for your underlying issues. Much love to you.

Drinking until blacking out is very scary, puts yourself and others in danger. I am glad you are here and want to stop. I suggest finding something else to do. Find a friend who doesn't want to drink and will hang out with you on those nights where you typically drink. Go see a movie, go to the gym!!
