I am sure this is going to sound like awful advice but here goes-drink until it passes and then once it's past when you're calm and collected come up with a doable action plan to stop it the next time. I've self medicated for almost 20 years and just recently (little less than 3 months) am going it sober. It's freaking hell some times, like today when I had a lil fight with my mom. Getting drunk would of felt so good at the time. Anyways the more you fight the urge the easier it becomes. You have to make yourself use other tools because that has to become your new normal. It's possible I promise.
