If you are worried about your drinking or a friend’s drinking, tell them – they need to make changes as soon as possible. It is much easier to cut back before drinking problems damage your health than it is once they are out of hand.

First steps: Keep a diary of your drinking – you may be surprised by how much you really do drink, and this can give you the motivation to cut down. It helps if you can talk your plans over with a friend or relative. Do not be ashamed to tell someone. Most real friends will be pleased to help – you may find they have been worried about you for some time.

alcohol? What sort of tactics do you use to manipulate them? Guilt? Holding favors over their head? Lies? Threats of violence to yourself or others? How well does this work for you?

I’ve been drinking more lately as stress and pain in my life has increased. I’ve never touched narcotics, but I know I am looking to alcohol pretty often lately as a feeble means off escape from reality. The other day I found myself heavily drinking alone. I don’t think I have a problem, but I know that if I did, I may not know it at first. I can stop anytime, right? That’s what they all say.

When giving your answer, please let me know if you have a drinking problem or describe your relationship with someone who has.

I’m 18 years old and was diagnosed with manic depression about a year ago, after bouts of what i now know as mania and severe depression, i’d never really been the kind to take any drugs or anything, and only rarely got drunk, so i wasnt a self medicator, but my nan was getting prescriptions for a tablet known as solpadol.
I was getting bad headaches and knew about the effects of codeine, so i took 2 of them (30mg), and since that moment, which was nothing less than euphoric….i have been taking them constantly, not in major doses, taking about 2 up to 4 times a day, and since coming off of them on my own, i have switched to alcohol, i know there’s no real cure for what i have, but there are subsitutes, i stopped taking my tryptizol, because they were making my depression worse

i dont know what to do, my mind is full of ridiculous emotions, its starting to affect my relationships with people and my overall mental state, i fear if i dont do something soon ill crack, what can i do?
