Thank you Dee. I have some unresolved bereavement issues I need to deal with. I stuff it down with drink.
It is 4 am here in DC. I need to rest a bit before I lead a 7 hour team retreat. I fear I will be useless and still drunk.

Hey C4G, see that you're a fellow DC-er. How are you doing this morning? I haven't gone back and caught up on all of your posts but did see you tried AA before. Did it not work out for you? Just asking because there are some decent meetings in our area (I work in DC but live in the Bowie/Annapolis area and there's a great network there as well as in NoVA) that might be of help. Haven't tried many of the DC-proper meetings but some friends seem to dig them as well. Lots of options/types of meetings at least...
Anyway, just wanted to say "hi," let you know I am thinking about you, and hoping that you are feeling better today.
((Hugs))

Funny how grief and bereavement seem to go together. Seem being the operative word. In reality it's more like adding oil to your gas tank. Pm me if you want to discuss further, I have some experience. Take good care, it can be overwhelming.

It's a long road changy,
You've got miles and miles to put yourself back together . Alcohol doesn't do us any favours . Issues can be resolved, emotion can be delt with , Glorious freedom can be yours .
