Alcohol, hints, tips, advice etc.

Totally agree it really does help, I've also bought a weighted vest which I use for walking as a reminder, it only weights 5kg though, so it's hard to imagine the strain the extra weight before had on heart and joints
Definitely! I can count the weight I've lost since cutting out booze and then eating better and more time to exercise in bowling balls. Carrying around an extra couple of stones really does take a lot of effort.
 
Gone fucking mental I have been on the lash for a week. Blew work my wife threw me out today. I'm sat in the pub typing now. I necked 6 diazipam before. I'm in a bad place.
I am all or nothing last time I drank was Xmas. I am a binge drinker.

Brave to admit that.

Is there anyone you can talk to?

Is there something that has triggered this latest episode, obviously no specifics, but in general?

Or can you get yourself to A&E? I'm guessing that you know that the potential outcome of the combination of meds and alcohol.

No nobody to talk too I'm just sat looking at a pint thinking I hate you but keep drinking the thing. Triggers? I suffer from anxiety but don't seek help. I have money so obtaining alcohol is no problem. I went to throw my cash card in the river before. I snap out of it though till the next time its a vicious circle for me. Thank you for your reply

Do you want to speak to someone a bit more sympathetic than the police?

Is there maybe a confidential employee helpline or something you have access too?

Anxiety is awful when it strikes and unfortunately alcohol feeds the anxiety, making it so easy to spiral.

I hope you can find the desire and motivation to seek some help. It is out there. Take care

I've been through the same, mate. Have you ever sought help before through your doctor? You really need it as soon as you can.
I'm guessing you're already drunk so, if you're feeling suicidal or so low that you feel like giving up, phone your doctor or even go to A & E.
You know that alcohol CAUSES anxiety? It's a vicious circle...you drink to calm your nerves, but the after effect of that is bad nerves.
You need to see a therapist for the long run. I did, and it helped me see things as they really are. Changes the way we think and act when it comes to stress and shit. You learn to cope WITHOUT alcohol.
Don't punish yourself, mate. Do you have trouble stopping?
 
Please get into a doctor, get onto a substance abuse service. You obviously don't want to be doing this. The services available are made for people just like you.

Please take a deep breath mate . No matter what you think there will be family who love you . I don't know if you have kids but they never see the bad side of our behaviour. You have had a blow out but you won't be the only one today . Get close to home and try to resolve a bit of the problem.
 
Anybody feeling low should always remember mums and dads should never ever have to Bury their children through our own issues. They never recover and I've seen it .

If you are back on BM and are reading this, PM anyone of us posters that have responded to you. Give them your number and they might be able to call you back. You need to talk. You really do.

Failing that, get to A and E. I hope you're there already.
