I want to get help but I can't. If I tell someone I am suicidal and drink alcohol to cope, they only tell me that they wish me well but have to let me go. I have grown up an orphan, and everyone tells me they care, but nobody really cares in the end...

Andy, I care...I need help too. Your not alone, I've been drinking massive amounts everyday since I turned 20. Only thing that has stopped me is not having enough money, even then I still find a way

Let me tell you why it’s not ok to drink at work, as someone who got fired from one job for having an open beer at my register, and as someone who permanently ruined their spine at work, while drinking a Gatorade full of vodka.. if something happens at your job, and you’re drunk, you become liable. It’s not an ethical issue, it’s a liability issue. Even if it’s not your fault, being drunk makes you vulnerable to being scapegoated. Personally, I needed help, but I didn’t get it til I had a back surgery and became disabled.. ritalin helps me, I don’t drink at all now, nor do I use cannabis. Ritalin, Concerta, or Adderal can really help because it gives you a kick of dopamine, just enough to not be craving liquor. Now, stimulants may make you very fiendy the first couple days you take it, but as you get used to it, things become much better and you can have a brain full of dopamine without risking your literal life and freedom.

A lot of errors. So many errors. It is becoming an issue for us. Otherwise...they are excellent. Great attendance. So its hard to tell whats happening. Plus our work is military related. I kind of dont mind that they get drunk. I smoke myself. But try to focus. I tried asking them if they are ok because i noticed they make a lot of mistakes IN ONE HOUR. But they say yea they are fine. They even laughed. Feels like i should start documenting their errors and have a talk with my boss. Im not the only one who noticed their behavior. I suspect others mentioned their behavior before yet they dont see to fix the problem. Im actually worried more than anything. Feels like they are sick and trying to find help.
