Yes, I have a question. I am very much a closet alcoholic. I don’t think most people suspect that I have a problem. It is hard for me to admit that I have a problem. But it is definatly getting worse and I know that it is only a matter of time until there will be very serious consequences, which I do not want. So here is my question, I have been through a number of extremly stressfull events in the last few years, I started abusing alcohol as a way to be able to function, of course eventually it has caused me to be less functional, but I still don’t know how to take care of all my responsibilities with out becoming overwhelmed by anxiety unless I self medicate. What is the way out of this catch 22?
