Think it through how will you feel once you realize whatever you wanted to drink away is still there. How will you feel in the morning? How many others will be affected by your actions. Is it really worth it?

And where will that lead exactly? Play the tape to the end as many say on here. Think of something better to do when you get off work. Go and see somebody, go for a run, a walk. Go home and get in the bath........... just ride it as best you can until it passes. It WILL pass and you'll be so glad you didn't give in.

are you committed to NOT drinking NO MATTER WHAT?
if not, i suggest you do so RIGHT NOW.
drinking is what GOT you here....go back and read 8 or 10 of your own posts.......misery is only GIFT alcohol has to offer you.

I went back and looked through your threads...they're pretty much the same for seven pages going back two years.
So clearly this isn't working, right? Do you have other places for in-person support or plans for getting sober other than posting here? Is AA or rehab a possible way for you to get out of this holding pattern?
I know the cliches can be annoying, but they're usually true...nothing changes if nothing changes.

Yupp, play the tape all the way to the end.
At best you will feel like absolute crap later.
At worst....well, that is fairly scary.
It's awesome that you posted on here before picking up. Good on ya!
I have faith that you have got this
