If you cannot control your drinking then please seek help at AA or with a counselor. Do you know why you drink? Is it only when you're having a bad day? You mention fun but it sounds like you are drinking alone. How much fun is it drinking alone? If you need to escape problems I can understand that but maybe a counselor can help you find safer means to deal with your life. You can have a great time being sober if you ever give it a chance. I wish you a safe weekend.

I will text her often but not every day and when I do, it's for scheduling. This is not an every day thing by any stretch of the imagination. I texted asking for help which I've only ever done once or twice before.

I drink to make the memories go away or more accurately, to make myself not upset by the memories. I'm kinda okay with them when I'm drunk.
