I've never done anything like this (seek help). First I want to say thank you for having me.

I've reached a place in life where it's apparent I lack self control and am on the verge of ruining my future. I feel very alone, confused and scared. I never thought it would get to this point. I have plenty of peers who use drugs but for some reason I'm always the one who leads the pack, pushes limits and overconsumes. My emotions are volatile and I find myself hating myself.

I try to eliminate the toxic thoughts. I try to remain optimistic. I'm reaching a point where I have no where to turn. I'm afraid to tell friends or family and want to clean up my act before it's too late.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thank you from a lost soul

My drug of choice was alcohol. I got to a point too where I surpassed all my friends in my insane quest to get wasted. I found this site and became willing to stop abusing myself. Just a little over a month and I'm a lot better. There's a lot of support here.
