Hello again

Well, I’ve been talking a lot to my therapist this past week and how i am handling this change in my life….and the very negative ways i am dealing with it – drinking mainly. I am doing the right thing in talking to her and sharing things with close friends, but the alcohol has become a little bit of a crutch (I’m not an alcoholic by any means, but I’m abusing it). And quite frankly, i feel like my life amounts to nothing now (rationally i know this is not true, but the pain of my divorce has been so much more than i had ever anticipated)

She has suggested CODA meetings, AA meetings….i need support from my peers nd people in my shoes. Does anyone have any experience with this? How can i get to place of acceptance and self-love….i am failing here. Im struggling and my mind is in bad shape. What else can i do? She has even suggested i might consider going into a 24/7 treatment centre for extra support because my head has now developed some unhealthy thoughts/obsessions. my desperation is reaching new levels.
