So, since you bring it up WCT74, what is this "full extent of the problem" and what purpose do you feel it serves to "keep it tucked away for the foreseeable future"? I feel like very politely suggesting that there may be a large load of denial being hauled along this path you're following, WCT74. (Believe me, I know ALL about denial. I'm a world class denier!)

You start out this post by writing about how you're drinking in the morning & drinking in the evening. And you hurt your wife SO badly. And then you just mention in passing there's a load of other stuff you're keeping tucked away for the foreseeable future. But now you write that it can all just be taken care of through accountability with your wife, support from "this place" (PC?), & your desire to get better. Well, I certainly hope that's true. But I would have to say, in all honesty, for me there seems to be something of a disconnect between what you wrote at the beginning of this Thread & what you wrote just prior to mine.

You mentioned that you are in college. Are there student counseling services you might take advantage of at least initially as a way of at least getting some individual counseling or therapy? My impression is that there's a need for more here than just accountability to your wife, PC, & your personal desire. My best wishes to you...
