Alcoholic

Hiya Wally, are you getting any support for your alcoholism ?

Until you start getting some support for this you are going to keep finding yourself back in the same place - ok you have admitted your problem but are you willing to deal with it ?

I wouldn't wish either on anyone but having once dated an alcoholic I know how self destructive this is in itself, no one can help you but youself, your desire has to be strong enough to stop this.
 
I want to stop - Drs, consultants and family aware now - just that I'm scared - how sad is that? Sorry should be on a aa forum

Hi Wally - so easy to say don't be scared, but what are you scared of ? Is it like a comfort blanket, does it make you feel differently about your life ? I am glad that your family and doctors are aware as if they weren't then it would mean continuing to live a lie, are you connected to any support groups ? No need to apologise, just hope that each day is a step towards a better life.
 
Feel like I'm really selfish at the moment - thinking about me as trying to get my diabetes under control (last habc1 (?) was 6.8 - so that was good) but ketones high - the last time I went into hospital they were 4.6.
 
If your still on here Wally I’m Drinking a bottle of vodka a day and can’t cope type 1 and I wanna let u know your not the only one mate

Hi @Olihill99 ,

I don't think Wally has been about on the forum for a while.

But I hear you. Have you thought of addressing your issue separately to your diabetes?
Maybe a referral for counselling & a help group?

Best wishes.
 
Yeah I’ve tried there’s only tuning point and I just don’t feel like waiting I am addicted to not been sober at the moment it’s alcohol but I just jump from high to High and it’s hard not Gonna lie
