Sigh…

What were you hoping to get out of your post OP?

Whatever it was, I remember how clever I thought I was when I was wasted. Sometimes things were actually funny, sometimes I was painfully tone deaf (*cough*), and sometimes I was so embarrassed of what I said and did that I wanted to crawl into a hole.

If you think you have a drinking problem and want to talk to people who’ve been there, then stick around. If you want an anonymous outlet for being clever, I suggest Reddit.

It's not my business to cut you a break or pass any judgement. If you want help all you have to do is ask.

Not sure that getting an abortion to show solidarity with Kamala is what she or any woman would want. Not going to judge you for slipping up and drinking, of course. But I'd try to be a bit more self aware about how you talk/think about abortion.. it's not a thing people do to show "solidarity"

The comment about cutting you a break is a tactic I’m very familiar with. I used to drink because we lost the game or I would drink because we won. I always had a “reason” to drink. This post indicates that you are lying to yourself and you’ve chosen to do it in front of us, but you are still only lying to yourself. Sounds like you are not done with drinking yet. Some of us are done with it. Perhaps you will be too, one day. Best to you.

Covid has been hard. March 2029- December 2020 I drank a lot to cope without realizing it. January- March I didn't realize I was depressed. March I came to terms with increase and ongoing suicidal ideation and needed help.

I went into a intensive outpatient program (IOP) which has been super helpful.

During the beginning of covid I drank every day and in a great deal. January it was a "dry" month which was hard the first week but overall great.

March 2021 realized I'm clinically depressed.

I know everyone will have different answers for this but how did you know it was time to get sober? I think it might be time for me to find a new job and pursue sobriety, but I don't feel like I'm a rock bottom which is the only time I've ever seen people really commit to it (my father). Apathy isn't the right word but I just kind of feel numb about everything and I think being sober would maybe help.
