Alcohol consumption

Hi all.... I searched the forums, and didn't really find anything related to my question. Do any other DG members have any problem with alcohol addiction, or even just that nagging, knowing that you're drinking more than you should? Whereas I know this isn't really gardening related, it would be somewhat comfortable for me, and maybe others, to talk to a fellow gardener about this.

I know the reasons I drink, and I know that those reasons should and could be helped with other forms of assistance. But sometimes (most times) when I come home from work the first thing I want to do is pour a drink. The second thing I do (most of the year) is to do a garden-walk. Then, I can face the rest of the evening. I also suffer from depression, and yes, I know alcohol is a depressant in itself. But it is an endless cycle: I drink because I'm depressed and I'm depressed because I drink.

I would love to talk to others about this, if there are any out there. Thanks for listening.
