 OK look like the moderator has said, you really do need to explain a little about what is going on in your life right now and why you are substituting drink for comfort.
The first thing you have done and I take my hat off to you is to realise that you have a problem in the first place.
No one will be able to help you if you don't talk it through as to why you are looking at the bottle rather than people to talk to.
Do you have money problems?
Do you have relationship problems?
Is work putting you under huge amounts of stress?
Do you have family problems?
So many questions and I would like to see if I can help in any small way and I would think there are loads more of us who would like to help as well if we knew more about what is going on with you.
The one thing this site will always give you is support and someone's ear to listen to you OK. You are never alone and the only thing I can suggest right now is to try and reduce the alcohol intake slightly - even less in the glass or the number of units may help.
Do you drive a car at all in the morning after drinking the night before or not? Do you feel like crap in the morning and that is why the Irish Coffee gets you going first thing?
Look I am not judging you at all but just trying to help and understand where you are hurting OK.
Speak to you soon.
