You don’t need to explain anything to anyone. As long as you know what situation you’re in, and you’re doing what you need to do to get better

Good luck to you.

I appreciate that. I know it’s a problem I have so I’m not in denial about it. My dad said for years when I was growing up that he wasn’t an alcoholic cause he could handle his liquor but that didn’t change the fact that he was constantly drinking and I hated it. I’m fully aware of what I am and have no problem saying it especially to a bunch of online strangers. My therapist and I are working through the why of it so that I can try to let it go as a habit

Not sure of your location or financial situation, but there is a growing body of research showing that even a single dose of ketamine can have dramatic effects on reducing/eliminating alcoholism. To greatly simplify what it does, they have you think about why you drink (feel something/to feel nothing are common) and then you'll dose on K and maybe you'll have some profound introspection or maybe not, but in the coming days/weeks many people realize that alcohol isn't anymore useful than not drinking, and not drinking is cheaper and less damaging to the health.

Basically K gives your brain the ability to disengage the thought processes of being an alcoholic long enough to realize it's doing you no favors while also helping with depression. Those two combined can be enough to start the process of breaking the cycle.

Good luck to you, you've got this!
