I’m currently going thru it. My drinking and using lead me to losing the most important woman in my life. It’s a rough time for me. I’m detoxing myself off drinking and coke. It’s been 5 days almost. My mental health all over the place.

Welcome! You’ve made it five days that’s a massive achievement, keep reading on here, I find it really helpful reading other people’s stories and learning about addiction and the different phases of withdrawal and recovery.
Congrats on 5 days! My drinking made my life suck, it was a vicious cycle. I’d drink, something bad would happen, I’d get mad, angry, depressed and drink more, and more bad things happened. The cycle was broken the day I quit. Your cycle ended 5 days ago. And while it may not feel like it now, things are getting better, one day at a time.
Keep going, it’ll get better.

Here are two good threads to start:
