Good decision on raising the white flag, sometimes we gotta surrender and find support. You have for sure found it here. Are you doing anything else to bolster yourself, face to face?

I am sitting here on the East Coast staring at a lovely snowy scene out my window ... thinking about all the times any amount of snow meant "let's get drunk!". Every snow day for the last 10 years was a binge drink day. But today, the fire is going, I am drinking water, and about to make dinner. And I will not drink. And it is OK. Glad to have you here with us!
Thank you tonnes for your message! Its great to be here. Hope you're dinner was cool
Take care of yourself now!

Hope you find a new job soon and not just for the money but because it will occupy your mind.
I'm in no position to offer advice but I do know that Hull is a Uni town and therefore quite lively (or at least it was a few years ago when I last went there) so it must be easy to have boozy social life if you are young . I think what I am saying is that avoiding certain places and certain people might be good
