It's because....


You're an alcoholic.

[sarah14]

u could say that again.. but why do i do it in the first place?

[AppealToReason]

Because you use alcohol to cope with your problems. You need a different way to cope with life rather than drink alcohol and cut.

[sarah14]

why did i cut though i never have before? and i could be an alcholic but i only dirnk when things get to bad to handel .. which is like less than once a week or less but i guess ur still right

[AppealToReason]

Well, I don't believe you're an alcoholic, but drinking is not a good way to deal with things. You don't always have the best control over what you do when your drunk, which is probably why you cut yourself. Being upset + drunk usually = bad ending for some people.

yea been there done that ...

[sarah14]

tonight my mom told me she was gonna stop drinking cuz it gave her headachs.... do u think she knows? :( ... i feel kinda ashamed now.. i dont want her to me angry with me but i do have to say drinking is stupid... im stupid ... guess it dosnt even really matter now....

[AppealToReason]

I'm sure a lot of people have been there and done that. Hell, I've been there and done that more times than I'd care to admit, lol. You're not alone in this, so trust me when I say that it's a horrible habit to start.

i feel like im being talked down to by a parent... but i know its what i need to hear.. im not gonna let myself end up like my sister...i cant let that happen...

She's not an alcoholic. How old are you, sara? 15? You clearly do have a problem dealing with stress or emotions, but I don't think for a second that you're an alcoholic. Alcoholics will continue to drink whether or not a family member disapproves. You're young. You get to make mistakes. Just don't keep doing this and make a habit out of ignoring problems or feelings by way of substance abuse. It WILL NOT turn out well. Best of luck.
