Hey,
I'm new here. I think it took me a while to accept I can't beat this myself. I don't really enjoy alcohol, I can do without it, but I think I need something to be anchoring enough to help me fortify that thought. I just need someone to talk to ...at the very least to talk about why

Hello Panse, most people can't beet it alone. You might try going to some meetings. AA is the more popular but there are others. There are also online meetings here and others. I've heard the one here is good. I have yet been able to attend. The book Alcohol Explained by William Porter is easy to read and understand what alcohol does to your body to keep you drinking. I hope this helps. I know you can do this. Any more questions or comments just reach out anytime.

There is a app It’s called the meeting guide. No matter where you are it will tell you where and when three next meeting is. We can’t do it by ourselves. Go to a meeting. Meet new people. Get some phone numbers. Listen to what is being said. You will find that you are not alone. We get and stay sober together.
