New Person here
I am a alcoholic, every day round about 8pm, (after work) I will start drinking not decent stuff either usually like 7.5% cider. Back when I was younger I was what people would call a player, basically a different lass back at mine every week. I've lost all confidence now, my life consists of work, come home, eat then drink, rinse and repeat. In between that I do nothing else. Days off are worse as I consider starting to drink earlier.

I was in a similar cycle for years - I found coming here and posting regularly, and using the support here, really helped me change my life.
I hope we can help you change yours as well

Thanks everyone for the welcome messages. I've sat today thinking about reasons as to why I started drinking so much, was it because my mother cheated on my father when I was younger, is it because I lost the one girlfriend that I did actually love over something so stupid, or is it because I have worked for decent places HMRC, Royal Mail, Nissan and now I work in a hell hole mcdonalds. All in all i think its a mix of the whole lot. I suppose I'm lucky with my current job me being a alcoholic goes somewhat unknown about. I just feel like I am living in some messed up dream and don't appreciate the things I do have.
I don't actually think we need to know why we started in order to stop....in fact I think those kinds of questions are probably best tackled with a little sobriety and a clearer head
Have you got any kind of a plan to help you stay sober?

The "why's" of the drinking may become apparent with a few months or so of sobriety and the working of the Steps, especially the first five.
