Thinking of turning to alcohol... please advice/help

po10tial

Hi,

I have never consumed alcohol in my life, but I actually feel tempted in consuming it due to the following reasons

•

Anger issues

•

Bullied in the past, and have loads of haters

•

Unemployment

•

Depression

I feel like alcohol to get rid of my problems and maybe make me happier.

What are the alternatives to alcohol? Something that will make me happy

alcohol will not get rid of your problems-they will still be there when you are no longer drunk. im sorry to feel the way that you do-if you want to relax now i would suggest just going for a walk outside/a change of environment. i dont really want to advise on the rest as indont know the context and might make it worse-maybe talk to a close friend/parent/helpline?

I get pissed all the time. I just like getting pissed. However it doesnt do much to overcome serious problems such as unemployment or depression in the long term. Alternatives to alcohol include recreational drugs but you will end up a right bell end taking that crap.
