I just Realized im a alcoholic

Been smoking weed for ever. Never had a problem with it aside from loosing the drive to succeed. And then a relationship, i dealt with the problems and drank.
After the years the combination started to ware me down...

I never thought of myself as a acholoic...
Or a stoner..
Though i am bolth, sipping a beer smoking some weed and a cigerete before work in a few hours... Though it would be 7 pm i start and my normal start time is 7 am.... I realised i have a big problem.. And i have tried to quit before..
I am a alchoholic!!.. It blows my mind....

Everything is effected and i need to stop.. I need to quit smoking weed and cigerttes and drinking every single damn day... its all i do now and
i am a musician who wrights 3 songs a day gets drunk and forgets them..
I need to stop, i need help... Before this takes over forever.


I lost my gf, my step son.
I started drinking heavily and now its...
Just me torchering myself because of it.
And i miss my step son to death and i just drink it away....

i need to quit

It's great to have you join us mk. You are not alone, we've all been there.

You're wise to see what needs to be done here. I waited until my life was almost destroyed. You can get free of it and have a new beginning.

welcome mkdurrant

I was a pothead and boozer too - you'll find a lot of support here
So what are you going to do about it Mkdurrant?
I think Mentium means do you have any kind of plan to help you stay sober?

Realizing it and truly admitting it to yourself is a big step.

Sharing it with others is another.

Now you need to have a plan. Welcome to the site! Many people in various stages of recovery here to support you.
