Just joined. Need help

I’ve been drinking almost daily. Large amounts. I’m to the point where I have spent way to much money. Have missed work. I isolate myself and drink and watch tv alone. I don’t go do things with friends anymore. I need to stop and just don’t know how. I also need to keep this anonymous as nobody in my life knows just how bad I am right now. I’m hoping to talk with ppl on here.

Hello Maria, yes you took that first step. You have a big problem. My guess people close to you probably suspect or already know and are afraid to come out and say it. The same as you. If I don't admit it I don't have a problem. Detoxing on your own can be dangerous and scary. Above all don't hesitate to go to the hospital or call your dr. Consider therapy. I went to in patient therapy. It helped with understanding why I drank. I believe in a comprehensive strategy to sobriety. Get into a program like AA or similar.
Get educated on alcoholism
Get a good loving support group around you,. Friend and family are best
Get yourself right with God and Pray. It really does help.
I will talk sobriety anytime reach out. Prayers always :blush::pray::tulip::sunflower:
