RE: Ive decided to electricute and poision myself.

Good luck with it. I know these things are not easy. I am lucky I am not as far gone as you but still I recently took some very drastic action to cut down on going out and drinking a ton if booze.

Sort:  

Thats amazing that you took action! Might I ask what you did?

Thanks. My alcohol (ab)use was not drinking daily at home but more getting completely trashed at the weekend.

I now force myself to avoid these bars, I go out only once a week and not on a Friday or Saturday night. It's hard as I'm a foreigner where I live and I have a nice social life that revolved around these occasions but I have to look after my health first. I was also very ashamed of my behavior.

I guess I was lucky to shock myself into action and that I binge drink rather than daily drink.

Im glad that you had the will power to make such a positive change in your life! The social aspect of it makes it hard for sure!
