Hello, stranger :-)
For me it's a self esteem issue. I don't think that people would be interested in knowing me straight, so I have hidden behind drinking in the past.
I know that I have to develop stronger coping skills = a better self image so that I am less vulnerable to slipping up. The associated guilt of feeling like I failed is crushing.
