It is important to know the signs and be ok to say that you do have a problem but look at what the route coming from experience it is more likely that maybe you are depressed or overwhelmed or trying to fit in. For me I used drinking as a way to escape the world to let go and not feel the way that I really was. I couldn't face what I was doing or the people around me so why not just enjoy a drink or two or twenty. It started to be that it was more and more and everyday and every night and then it was all I was doing. Really it was just about my depression and I couldn't admit that I had a problem and I couldn't control it. I went to insightpros.com and started getting the help that I needed and today I am doing better and happy and enjoy life and when I feel sad I spend time with my kids or doing something that is positive.
