Hi jane, hope you are doing well. Always before thinking about drinking(or taking any drug of choice), use the "HALTS" method. Ask yourself if you are :Hungry,Angry, Lonely,Tired,or Scared. If "yes" to any, then deal w/that specific issue. Journaling helps a lot too. Just writing things down on paper allows us to organize our thoughts and feelings. Also, don't beat yourself up so much. Ask yourself how you would respond to a dear friend in the same situation, and treat yourself just as good as you would treat someone you love! Good luck to you. Blessings!
