Feeling fake
I’m currently 8 months clean and trying to get sober, I’ve tried multiple times to get clean (this is the furthest I’ve ever made it) and am struggling to get sober from alcohol. I understand I have an issue especially with drinking and I’ve not been able to get over two month sober. But for some reason I can’t get over the feeling that I’m faking my problems, or that I’m exaggerating and don’t actually need help. I worry that people will tell me I’m not bad enough to deserve help and I feel like that forces me to go deeper into my addiction. Has anyone else experienced this and if so do you have any advice to getting past it?

alcohol is tricky IMO ... we look at it as "everyone is doing it ..." or i am not as bad as someone else....
if you want or ask for help i have not seen places refuse as someone is NOT addicted enough. congrats on your amazing progress so far.
