What I'm sick of...

I'm sick of:

Not knowing where I was or what I did
Making a conscious effort to avoid seeing my bank account balance
Losing/breaking everything valuable I own
Losing the people I care about
Losing 10+ years to idiotic, destructive, embarrassing, frightening behavior
Losing my appendix that became inflamed during an epic hangover
Waking up soaked in sweat, smelling like a back alley dumpster
Worrying about losing my job from being too hungover to come in
The random hookups
The blurry vision
Constantly putting myself in life threatening situations while tanked
Drinking the depression away
Not knowing what to do if I'm not going to drink
Constantly apologizing
Worrying about how I'm going to pay the bills this month

That I can see my life starting to spiral out of control

Thank you.... glad to be here. I could have kept that post going for pages, it's encouraging to read about others who have been through similar experiences.

I don't know what I plan to do about it yet.. this was my first step. Figure out how to change a life that revolves around alcohol is my next (very broad) goal
