I have been looking at her wonderful image. Bless you and thank you as well. St. Theresa was my father’s saint. He carried her pirture in her pocket every day. I have prayer beads and an angel of love. I cant tell you how much your prayers mean to me. I may be out on the streets in a few months. I struggle to care. I cry a lot. I hate myself often. I was sucidal before. Alcoholism is a thief. It literally took everything from me and continues to this day to take from me.

You are in my prayers, especially to Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal. Please, I beg you to go to an AA meeting ASAP. You can find out by calling the AA number in your phone book. I’ve been where you are, thousands of us have been there too. And there is help and hope.

take a look at this thread, please and starting at #18 there is a fellow Freeper who I think doesn't yet know that many know exactly what he is experiencing with his alcohol issues...

PING, this thread might be of interest to you! Freegards, RobFromGa

You CAN stop it. You have to ask for help. Unless you really want to die then no one can help you.

I felt the same way over twenty years ago. I got help. I went through it. You can too, if you want.

Prayers for strength for you. May God's hand guide you. May you learn the power of God's love.
