Hey all,

I am currently finishing college and I seem to have a problem. I don't drink all the time due to being busy with school, but when I do, I drink to excess. I wouldn't call myself an alcoholic for several reasons yet I know drinking to excess is not normal or healthy. Most of my drinking causes me severe fluctuations in anxiety and depression. This is also enhanced by the fact that my dad passed away a few months ago. The friends I am surrounded by are constantly drinking to excess and I am finding it difficult to participate in activities that do not require drinking. It would be great to have some support in this tough time! Any suggestions??
