So I've finally come to terms with the fact that I have a drinking problem. I've been to a couple AA meetings this week, and I finally told my T yesterday. She suggests that I talk to an addictions counselor and possibly get into an intensive outpatient program. She did tell me it is a very good thing that I recognize I have a problem, and that it is pretty common to have a substance abuse problem with a mood disorder. I'm just feeling really overwhelmed right now.
