Q&A: A Little Confused, Not Sure What Kind of Help I Need, but I Know I Might Be an Alcoholic?
Question by This girl: A little confused, not sure what kind of help I need, but I know I might be an alcoholic?
I am and have been struggling with the idea of being an alcoholic for a few years now. The first time I was 20 and I worked at a bar, I was fed alcohol while working, and invite to numerous after parties, I worked as much as I could, at least 5/6 nights a week, then my so called fiance got together with my brother and had me admitted into a hospital, they recommended inpatient treatment, it took about a week for availability, but at that point my LOVE, my boyfriend, literally told me he would not be waiting for me if I went, so I didnt go, now 4 years later, I still struggle, the only difference is that I am married to a real man, and we have children, I grew up with an alcoholic, and I WANT to be different for my kids, but I have hidden this problem from EVERYONE, I binge drink while everyone is asleep, I am so afraid to get help, I am so afraid everyones first reaction is gonna be “you dont drink that much” and “you arent an alcoholic” please somebody give me words of encouragement?

Just tell the truth, stop hiding it from your family and children, check yourself into rehab and get some help and then I promise your life will get better.
