Does constant drinking alcohol affect other group home residents, and other things?

Is that why they don't like me because I drink alochol but I rarely cause problems. I feel alienated from my peers and I feel isolated. I drink because of past trauma, particularly from the group homes last residents who we're very problematic - The care company only cared for high packages but been told by the new area manager that they will only move someone in who is compatible.

I drank to deal with TBI, failing marriage, death of father. A bottle of wine a night cost me my Gaul bladder!! Now only drink lager at week ends. Spent he last 20 years redefining my character, loss of social life. U need to work on y character. Relearn many social skills, will take time, patience to develope new social skills with those y trust. Sounds harsh but life can be a bitch?!! Good luck and please share y progress to encourage us?!! We keenly await!!
