Hello everyone, especially Angelicgoldfish. I do so identify with a great deal of what you've said, more to the point, I understand. My 'affair' with alcohol and anything else I've used as 'self medication' over the past 30 plus years, is much as yours. My main diagnosed disorders/illnesses are BPD, atypical anorexia, bulimia and binge/starve/compulsive eating and depression are absolutely spot on. I know that the BPD came first with all of it's awful symptoms, everything else followed in my efforts to ''cure'' myself of the other ****. I always maintained that if there's something/anything that will help get me through the days full of depression etc, has got to be worth a go, in some cases this was/is alcohol. However, I do know that some of my past behaviour under the influence has been degusting and I never wish to repeat that. So now I'm back to putting a lot of effort into cutting right down on the drink, I've done it before and I'll do it again. I hope that whatever you choose to do brings comfort and into the bargain stops others worrying over you, would be great. Thanks for reading. HUGS and LOVE, as ever. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
