Hi, I’m Ryan been struggling with the Alcohol for 20 years now. Last night was a 5th of Crown and a bottle of Baileys. Been addicted to the emptiness it makes me feel. Started to drink at around 11 years old. Due to the physical and sexual abuse I suffered as a child. Been pretty reckless ever since. Tried whatever I could and the result has destroyed relationships good jobs and my own personal view of self. It’s a long road to go.

Hi I’m Kady, Im 31, I’ve been destroying my life with alcohol since I was about 15. I have ruined practically every romantic relationship I’ve ever had because of drinking. Most recently one this last weekend. I drink until I blackout and pass out so many times, but I only really drink at the weekends, it’s never destroyed my job and so some how I’ve compartmentalised this crazy out of control side of myself, but this has kept me going for so long telling myself it’s not a problem. But it is. And it always was. And I’m writing this to try and hold myself accountable so i don’t go back to it. Iv tried to get sober before, maybe lasted a few months at most many years ago. I’m going to find some meetings, maybe go twice a week to keep my mind focused on it and of course this community can help too.:pray:
