I don’t know what this means. As far as I can tell, this is your only post.
If you are struggling, tell us more about it. You can hop on any meeting and talk it out there, too. “Deserve” is a really interesting word. If it is killing you, don’t you deserve NOT to have a drink? You deserve to have a happy, healthy life.

Disappointed and devastated at the little amount of help
If you are talking about help from here, we’re here.
How would you like us to help?

What you shared is what many here understand: a drink may literally kill us.
No, dear Jane, you deserve to live. And happily.
Maybe start with writing out that list? What the drink is taking from you vs what you may find if you could stop? There’s hope in it.
It took time and adjustment, and a program of recovery helped. But there’s nothing I enjoy now that was ever made better with a bottle!

If that is the case, why are you reaching out here, @Jane66? And why would it make you cry? And why would it make you sick?

So, your life is clearly not better with alcohol in it. People do not need to quit things that TRULY make their lives better. Alcohol is LITERALLY killing you.

I’m an average person. Nothing exciting. My dad was an alcoholic. I always used alcohol to boister myself socially. I think it got out of hand when I went on an all inclusive holiday a while ago and then I met a man that drank a lot. From never drinking in the house…apart from new year …to drinking every day

I dare say if it’s risking your life, that is simply not true. But I also remember a time that I couldn’t imagine how to get through another day with drink, nor could I imagine how to get through a day without.
Besides your health, how else is it affecting your life?
There were ways I thought it was good, but those I eventually found to be hollow. “Socializing,” but with those who really weren’t present. Being “more myself,” but not actually engaging or even remembering most of what happened. The more I realized that, the less interested I was in ever drinking again.
Perhaps that is just me though and it does not affect you the same.

I’m dull I think hateful probably
alcohol has got you on here begging for people to help it’s taken your self respect and dignity and it wants more. We know how you feel, the whys and the why not, the what’s the point bc life is shit. But with action and going through a bit of pain that I like to call our learning curve 50 % of our problems go away bc they are in our head and the rest we for some strange reason are able to deal with all of a sudden.

Can you ever like what you are
So, was your life really bad before this trip awhile ago? Because it seems like if you were off to an all-inclusive holiday, maybe things weren’t total shit. I am theorizing, because I only have what is in this thread to go on.

alcoholism used to make us the life and soul of the party, then the music stopped and everyone went home and left us with a bottle and a resentful mind.
