Hi Mr P
Welcome to NeuroTalk

.
Apart from the Peripheral Neuropathy forum, you might find it helpful to check out the Alcoholism, Addiction and Recovery forum (
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forum31.html).
It is a very supportive place for those of us who are at different stages of dealing with alcohol abuse and its consequences.
Edited to add; I see that you have already found that forum - good job

.
All the best.
