    I must say somethings have happened to me over the last few months and somethings have made me realise over the last few days that its time for me to really take a good look at myself and take affirmative action in my life and just stop this downward spiral from continuing.

    Rewind back twelve months and I was a very happy, popular, outgoing and carefree young man who went out with his friends from time to time and really enjoyed himself.

    Contrast that with today and im a completely different person, Im erratic in my behaviour, moody taking it out on others who dont deserve it most of the time, im depressed plus I absolutely ruined it with a girl I really liked and who really liked me too and really gave me the benefit of the doubt for a very long time but ultimately my mood swings and behaviour has meant that even she grew sick and tired of it eventually and now shes gone and im pretty sure theres no going back and Im finding it hard to accept that but I know its time I should but I really dont know how. Ive only got myself to blame at the end of the day.

    Im unsure what has caused me to change so much but Im sure it has got something to do with my drinking habits which have really gotten out of hand over the last 8 or 9 months. I was only an occassional drinker as in maybe the once a month type but now its often twice a week and this has been the case for so long. In addition my behaviour whilst out drinking is a lot different to my old self as it seems I am getting in trouble a hell of a lot more and ive dont some stupid things im not proud of and I no longer enjoy myself going out with friends or drinking as it seems that night after night I either get in trouble or I just simply dont enjoy myself. Ive really lost my way in life and am driving people away as a result and Ive decided to take some action and grow up a bit starting by giving up drinking. I dont particularly enjoy it anymore so i figure what better way than to take responsibility and turn my life around

    hi op
    it's good that you've realised that the drinking is affecting your behaviour and in turn, your life.
    don't be too hard on yourself. you've made mistakes, everyone does. but you seem to be at a stage where you're willing to change things for the better so i'll wish you all the best in doing that. make 2016 a good year:)
