Hi, I have a huge problem. I love to drink. I can not even imagine a day without the booze. I have been "functioning" like this for more than three years. Recently I made myself look like an idiot. The drink was the cause of it. I read somewhere that the problem that I have is called ethanol abuse. Is there a way that I can help myself?

Hi, I am very frustrated whenever I hear that people like to destroy there own lives. The thing is that you also destroy the lives of people around you. You are right when you say that alcoholism is also known as ethanol abuse. Three years is not a short period especially if you spent it drinking all the time. You should consider yourself lucky because you have acknowledged that you have a problem. There is a way that you can be helped. The most important step has already been made. Admitting that you abuse ethanol is that step. Next, you should go and talk to your doctor about it. Depending upon the seriousness of your ethanol abuse, next steps will be made. The doctor will probably recommend a rehabilitation center. There you will get all the help that you need. Support groups are also a way to get over the crises. These groups consist of people like you. You will be able to talk to them about all the problems that ethanol abuse has caused you.
