((((((((Melpomene)))))))
I believe you're strong enough! I didn't think I'd ever be able to tell anyone, either; but you made that huge first step and told someone. That's evidence of your courage. I think it's even harder to tell a friend than a doctor or therapist.
Please try to tell a healthcare provider. This is a tough addiction to break, and the longer you let it go, the harder it gets.
Good luck and take care,
J

Very brief is the time in which we can help them, in which their happiness or misery is decided. Be it ours to shed sunshine on their path, to lighten their sorrows by the balm of sympathy, to give them the pure joy of a never-tiring affection, to stregthen failing courage, to instill faith in hours of despair."
