I am a single professional with no kids and a great job. I have been drinking on a daily basis for about 6 years. I don't drink at work, have no DUIs, and don't feel the physical need to drink. In fact, I chug hard alcohol really fast because I don't even like the taste. What I crave is the way I feel when I drink. I went through a terrible break up in the last year and am all alone. Completely alone without any family or friends to support me. My ex boyfriend meant the world to me - I was even able to hide my drinking from him. When we broke up I drank to excess for about a month straight. Now, several months later I still drink to the point where I pass out. Yesterday I started drinking at 1 am -and ended up texting with two people at work. As I sit here now, I have absolutely no idea what we talked about since I deleted the texts (I was too embarassed to read them because I think it was apparent I was drunk). One of these individuals works for me - I can't fathom seeing them tomorrow. I'm deathly afraid I am going to be fired. I just feel like such a loser.
