Venting Drinking to cope

[eleanorhere]

I'm doing so bad no one will help me I've just started drinking to cope I can't cope it's so bad

Same, now I am beginning to drink and I'm not going to stop until I'm drunk. Today was an awful day.

 

[FuneralCry]

I do not drink and never will personally, but I'm sorry that things are this bad. I understand it is hard to carry on when you cannot cope.

 

[Manaaja]

I don't drink alcohol because it tastes bad, but I have acquired some special alcohol to drink when trying to ctb.

Remember to drink water and take electrolytes too. And stay safe. I hope times get better for you.

Hey just putting it out there that drinking is liable to make you feel worse if you're already depressed.

But I'll drink to you

I just got back from an AA meeting...

I found self harm faster and more direct than drinking

 

[Journeytoletgo]

I wish I never picked up
This awful habit

 

[littlelungs]

I understand. I was a full-blown alcoholic by the age of 20 because I just couldn't cope with life without being drunk out of my skull. It gets to a point where you'll do just about anything in order to make it through the day/night.

It's such an awful feeling and I'm so sorry you're going through this.

 

[TheHatedOne]

I became addicted to drinking again because it's the only thing that makes me bear this awful life.

 

[~GeminiVII~]

Drinking is my form of self harm not gonna lie. Used to do worse, but I'm sick and tired of trying to hide my arms every single bloody day. These days its just bruising myself and then drinking to sleep. so sorry you're having to go through it as well..

 

[Journeytoletgo]

I begun drinking after my heart break years ago and abused it for about 5 years however I only did it while working when I'm home I feel no need to drink instead I scroll endlessly.

 

[Lost Magic]

I do drink less now and cut down on my alcohol intake and types of alcohol. The hangovers and the exhaustion for days on end simply aint worth it. I only drink a few ciders at the weekend now.

 

[mentalhealthfighter]

Unfortunately I cant drink since I take lithium. Maybe one day when I'm medication free.

 

[Hurt]

I stopped drinking because it made me more anxious. And it doesn't change anything just makes me feel happy for a while.
