When I drink, I just don't seem to have an off button. It's not that I need to drink every day, (can go all week without) and can sometimes have a glass or two in the evening, but when I have too many, I just can't seem to stop. This often leads to me making a bit of a tit of myself and feeling embarrassed the day after a night out.
I was diagnosed with depression recently and am on AD. They are great and have really sorted me out, but I do notice after a heavy weekend I feel low. I am disappointed in myself and get anxious about how this binge drinking may effect my long term health. My mum died of cancer. I know a lot of people won't understand and just tell me to stop but I don't want to stop drinking altogether, just want to cut down and be more sensible about it. Any advice?
