I definitely had a problem with alcohol. I’ve been sober for a little over two years now and it’s been amazing how much easier it is to manage my bipolar. I drank to try and mask the negative feelings I was feeling, but overall it was just making things worse.

Fighting the cravings can be hard for me, but I try not to obsess over them. The more I obsess the more I think about the craving. So I try to keep my mind busy with something else.

Lots of HUGS and support to you!!!
