Drinking to manage pain is bad.

So maybe I have a problem. It's just not bad enough to deal with. Idk. Maybe it is. When is it bad enough?

I'm sorry I'm frustrateding
Yes, it is bad enough to deal with.

It's definitely worse because of the drinking. Here's how it works: you feel pain, so you run to alcohol. Over time, you start running to alcohol more and more to hide even more pain. And as a result you lower your tolerance of the pain. It feels like it is getting worse, but in reality your poor coping skills are making it harder to handle the pain without drinking.
