God Bless and thank you Ashley. yes i want and need to do all of those things in order to get healthy in every way. ihave pushed down my childhood traumas which resulted in many bad decisons in my life and the fact that all i did was push it away but it would always pop back up just didnt wanna face it s just would push it lower if i could. like i said it the bottom now . i cann no longer do this to myself i am low point . so in order to solve my drinking i have to work on y past whcih is the cause of my anxiey and PTS ( as it said on the depression test) or i will always be trying to run from it and alsohol was my running shoes and after messing up yet again only badly this time i cannot drink and need to deal with why i am running or i will always be running . and dont want to nor doi want to self destruct.

Hi junes,

Working the program here in addiction to the AHC and AA sounds like a good idea. You may also want to consider getting counselling to work through the past trauma you experienced. No matter what you decide to do know that you are not alone. We will help you get back to where you want to be.

hi 


 i am new to this site. i have been struggling with past traumas and it has affected my self everything badly. i have taken up drinking to help me cope and thats has destroyed many parts of myife . and u can imagine how that helps with my depression and anxiety . its like a circle  feel anxious and down i drink to feel better but seeing  as i have a problem drinking i have done some really crappy things and affected so mny people that its just makes me worse and hat myself even worse. so now i am not drinking(day one again) but am feeeling so low .the only thing getting me through is my family who love me still and these sites with the great support . i do lovemy life although i have low self worth issues fron childhood traumas that u would think that i do not love my life because of my bad decisions.

i am not trying to have a pitty party but do feel low. i will be taking AA meetings but also need to sort out my past once and for all because that is the root of my evil.
