i can’t cope without drink in me but it seems like most times i drink i turn into a shitty person. i don’t understand why. every time i start to feel sorry for myself i convince myself that everyone else is just overreacting bc the things they’re upset about are minor. i don’t even know what i do wrong. no one understands, no one tries to understand and that’s what makes me feel like i’m a shit person. idk

i dont think youre a shitty person. addiction is a difficult thing to deal with. have you tried asking them to understand and explaining it to them?
There aren’t any shit people, but it does sound like a shit situation. If it brings you any comfort, you aren’t the only one. I think they understand perfectly well, those not in such a bind, they just don’t give a damn.
Understanding is lovely, but unless you have the resources to help, it just draws you into the same doomward spiral.
Drinking is really damaging. Cut back.
