My health problems are auto immune in nature - I take 3 tablets a day but these do not resolve the condition- they are unclear after many many tests what is wrong. I gave up drinking for two months and I felt no better. My irrational thinking is I feel crap anyway so drinking is going to medicate me. I know this is damaging me further

I think I've explained to you before how I'd nearly died from my drinking, Daphne - this was after drinking became my life and I lost everything and everyone I cared about.
It's not a good road to go down, and make no mistake alcoholism is progressive - drink like we do and you will go there.
I'm the healthiest I've ever been now - my problems haven't left me but I feel good mentally and physically and I'm motivated to do whatever it is I need to to live a full and happy life.
It took a while to get here yeah - but I know know I'm worth the effort
It's funny what happens when you stop poisoning yourself
