Discussion Anyone else want to because they can't quit alcohol?

[PapaYeehaw]

I've tried multiple times to quit alcohol but I just keep going back, which makes me feel like I shouldn't even bother and just either let the alcohol kill me or find a way to do it myself because dying from alcohol is an extremely terrible way to go. I wake up with awful health anxiety knowing I just downed a bottle the night before. Imagining my body just getting worse makes me want to give up because I simply don't think I can quit. Anyone else?

Do your alcohol abuse and your suicidal desires have a common cause? Something's driving you to drink, right? Is it something that definitely cannot be fixed?

If only drinking oneself to death was simple

No because I want to die mostly because of anxiety, but I don't even know why I drink anymore. I just feel the urge and can't stop myself. It's strange.
