I’ve come very close to losing what’s important to me because of binge drinking. Now I’m afraid I can’t stay sober. I’m new to this community. Hello! 

I’ve only recently been trying to stay sober. Today I fucked up. For about 1 year, I was getting drunk about 5 days a week. I was buying a bottle of liquor every week, just for me. For the last 2 months I’ve been trying to control myself. 

I’ve started getting treatment for anxiety recently. And that’s been a huge help. But I’ve struggled to let go of alcohol. I’ve stopped binge drinking, but I still drink sometimes. 

I don’t know how to fully let go. I’m surrounded by people who drink. My work environment exposes me to alcohol. 

Alcohol causes me to have panic attacks, but I still can’t seem to let go.
