Been trying to stay sober, after four days I stayed up all night drinking. Drank 24 beers and wanted to go and get more when they ran out... this is going to be the death of me but I can not make it stop! The only thing that helps me feel better is more alcohol!!

Hey James. I totally understand. I've been sober for almost 7 months and it seems like yesterday I was in the same boat as you. Good news is if I can do it, TRUST ME, so can you. Find a group of other sober people. Doesn't matter if its AA, SMART Recovery, or anything you can find. Don't do this alone. Search online for somewhere to go for support. You can do it.

Hi James. I’m glad you trust us with this. Please check into detox or other form of treatment. Tap sober help to view listings of available treatment centers.

Please find a meeting as Mike suggested.

There’s more to sobriety. The first couple things listed should be a great starting point for you.
