You can be a better man than that.

What exactly is it you want Jeff? In the few sober moment you had yesterday you said you needed to hear what we are saying. You aren't listening though. What is it you would have us do? Or anyone do for that matter?

There's a better than 99% chance you'll survive detox. What are the odds that you'll survive should you continue to drink?

From the sound of it, you have so much to be grateful for. It would be a shame if you lost all those good things in your life.
What on earth are you obliterating yourself for??
Where are the missing puzzle pieces?

I'll be honest w/you Thomas/Jeff, I don't like to post to people who are drinking/using at the time. But you occasionally sound rational.
I bet you're pretty aware when you're drunk of how f***d up you are. Your dark stuff, your ugly crap all loom up around on all sides. A big heap of dung caving in over your head.
As long as you keep drinking, it will stay that way & get worse & worse.
You CAN be better.
Pour it out. Play some solitaire. Go to bed & make a plan in the morning.

Keeping yourself "under wraps" has limited efficacy and a short shelf life. You need a plan.

Piece of ****
I understand that one. Exactly how I felt not too long ago.
There is a way out, when you want it badly enough.
enjoy the numbness, it won't last.
