Hey Elle,

Topa definitely does even you out, but at least for me, I have remained responsive and humorous. What it has helped with has been not being overreactive and/or impulsive. Hope this is reassuring!

My first time here

I have just found this site because I now know that I have a problem. I am a young professional who has been drinking since college. I never thought it was a problem until recently. Add a little stress to my life and it seems like the bottom of a bottle is my best friend. I don't want to over do it but I do. I cannot seem to stop myself when I am alone. If I am out on business, it does not seem to be a problem. But when I am at home and start thinking, I drink more and more. I am not ready for AA but I need help. I have a therapist but I think I need more. I am hoping this site will help.

Re: My first time here

dear all: my mother died this morning. she was not my bio mother - but delivered me and raised me from that day forward with the greatest most perfect love.

i have no one to tell - can't reach my husband. but i can reach the bottle. it's not my bio - mom, but i know she is my new guardian angel - as she has been all my life.

thanks for all your feed back. i hope i don't write tomorrow with a hangover. soooooooooooooo alone.

but only for a few hours.
