I was totally dependent on it. I was either drinking or thinking about the next time I could drink. I was defensive too - no one knew how bad my problem was - I always hid it. You're doing a good thing by reaching out for help now. You won't drink for 30 yrs. like I did.

I really had no choice alco (the way you do right now). I had painted myself into a corner - I had dui's, troubles at work and home, health issues - and I was drinking all day. I would have lost my life if I'd continued. I wanted to live.

As someone who had a really bad detox and is left with a lot of health problems because of that, I really urge you to see a Dr, Alco, and be honest with them about your problem.
They may prescribe meds, depending on what they think you need, or they may not, but the important thing is you'll have had professional medical advice.
