i don't know what the fuck to do. i'm leaving for college in a week and i know we both have extreme alcohol problems. i was thinking about taking his whiskey and leaving a note that says to talk to me but i don't know. should i leave him be? should i ignore everything? i know he loves me to death and i would take a bullet for him so i don't know what to do here. we both have pretty extreme alcohol issues
i'm an 18 y/o girl

can't help others if you can't help yourself
once you're sober and with purpose, alcohol actually seems disgusting.
when I was in your position a year ago, I didn't see fault with drinking. Now I realize it's just a waste of time.

It sucks OP, but the best thing you can do is just sit your dad down and confess everything. Just you and him. Keep it between you two. You can help each other out on the DL since you're so close.
You're going to have a really rough time trying to get through college as an alcoholic. Luckily, my alcoholism didn't really kick in until I was in my last year. You're going to have to really be strong and vigilant to not let it ruin your academic career....
I finally quit recently. Life is much better without it. You can't really make people understand that until they've been through it though. Just try to lean on your dad and let him lean on you for support. You're lucky you have someone so close to help you!

hey. after one year you do not have extreme alcohol problems.
stop drinking. spend less time at the house. work out. do anything it takes to be able to go to bed tired. go to college, only drink at parties.
