Maybe people freak out because they care? I know that not always people have the best ways of showing it ... but I bet people do care. Driving under the influence of alcohol is always a risky behaviour. Please do be careful.



Edit: I actually just went back and read some of your previous posts in this forum. One of them "struggling" really struck me. I know it's tough dealing with an addiction, especially when you're dealing with more than one simultaneously. Do you remember what you wrote back a couple of months ago?

I know the situation is changed now (are you still travelling?) and I don't know if you managed to see a counsellor/therapist yet (I highly recommend it) ... but you were so committed to trying to help yourself then - are you committed to helping yourself now?

Or is this situation different? Do you think you're not misusing alcohol? Do you think you're becoming an alcoholic? Like madisgram said, only YOU can determine if you have a problem with alcohol.

But we'll be here to support you if you want to stop, even if you're not sure right now about what to do.
