Addiction and being sick, what can I do?? Please read.?

I feel the same way now and wish we could be healing buddies and help each other. I've been drinking heavily and smoking lots each day (addiction too) and got this horrible cold and it's been making me feel very sick and weak, and difficulty breathing for over almost two weeks now. I, like you, want to get better yet if I stop drinking I feel much worse (doesn't make much sense but it's true). I know it's not the best answer but I do wish we can support each other through this tough time. I really don't have anybody and think we could understand and help each other. Take care of yourself the best you can and I'll do the same. Love & peace
