Help!!

Hi everyone, so my drinking and mental health issues have now ruined yet another relationship, when I drink I can be fine one minute then absolutely lose the plot, smashing the house up, screaming and shouting etc. But the next day cant remember the whole scenario. Well my partner has now left me as says it's too volatile and cannot live this way 😪 I'm now broken, iv booked counselling for my mental health and decided to cut the alcohol. It's just all so hard. Thanks for reading

if you want to stop, my suggestion is to get to AA. What you are describing makes total sense to me. Been there. Done that. Need Alcoholics Anonymous to stay away from a drink. I need my therapist, psychiatrist and meds to deal with my depression and anxiety disorder. But left to my own devices, I drink. Black out. Fight with people. Lose relationships. Jobs. And much more.

You've taken the most important step to seek help about your drinking and that is massive, you've admitted to yourself you need help.

Hi Emma I'm sorry too hear about your relationship breakdown. It sounds like you have realised what the root cause is, like a lot of us on here. I have experienced loss of memory but luckily not the smashing up of environment. You will get lots of support and empathy on here and hopefully, together we can beat the demon. Stay strong and safe❤️
