Thanks for the reply. I want to make this work in here. Never did good in groups. My insurance has been screwed up for a year so I haven't been in the counseling I was in before. I'm the type of drinker that goes for days or a week or two. But when I drink I can never have one. For some reason my counselor always thought I could do controlled drinking. It hasn't been so controlled lately. Am tired of wasting days being depressed and hung over. I've dropped quite a few friends this past year because many werent' good for me.
My best friend is going through a depression himself so hasn't been calling me. I don't have much family. Parents are dead. Find myself very alone these days. Outside looking in again. Today I will spend the day getting my house in order. Thanx much again, Dar

Well, its been a few months since you last posted and I hope you have found a way to get/stay sober...It's really hard, sometimes, for us to be gay and alcoholic!! I had insurance and yet I was able to find a wonderful therapist who I have been seeing for almost three years, so I know that you will find one that will really see you for who you are...I wasn't sober when I first started seeing my therapist. It wasn't until six months later that I finally got there...So hang in there, just remember that ther is always someone to watch over you and guide you on your way... I wish you well and godspeed...Janner 5-28-02

Just saw this thread. Jon here, an alcoholic who happens to be a gay man AND very happy. Some of my best friends are sober dykes, so I know it's possible for a lesbian to get sober! LOL 
.
I live just outside of Raleigh/Cary/Garner of North Carolina with my "new" partner and coming up on chip 20 next month.
I've started back to Alanon too, at the strong suggestion of my AA sponsor. Nothing like a live-in intimate relationship/partnership/marriage (whatever) to bring out my character defects. (I'd been contentedly single for 9+ years) You know, it seems I don't have any when I'm by myself!!! LOL
Hugs to all GLBT folk here in recovery. It works if/when we work it!!!!
Jon:p
