Hey it sounds like you have undiagnosed and untreated alcoholism. I'm a recovered alcoholic, just got sober on June 25th, 2017 when I was 25.

" It's gotten to the point I just want to stay home and do my own thing. "

-Yup at that age I always isolated myself in my room and played computer games. I hated high school and having to be around people. I always felt awkward and angry. It felt like everyone except me knew how to function and be happy. The best part of the day was going home to my room and play video games so I could forget how uncomfortable I felt out there.

"it's just that when I have one upcoming, or am laying in bed I get this awful awful feeling that wrenches my gut and nothing I do can get rid of it it grasps on to me, even if I think and know there is nothing wrong with those events it strangles me "

-That is the mental side of alcoholism. I remember going insane overthinking the simplest things and this always leads me to take that first drink. With that first drink comes a feeling of relief, suddenly life isn't so hard and scary. I suddenly feel a feeling of warmth overtake me, I feel ok, in fact I start to feel like I can take on the world.

-The hardest part of getting help will be the fact that you are 15. At 25 I thought I was too young to be an alcoholic and I'm sure you'll think that too. But my drinking and my thinking is exactly like yours and I can relate to everything you're saying and that's why I think you have untreated alcoholism. I'm not sure how much impact I can have since I'm just a stranger on the internet, but as a recovered alcoholic I need you to know that your drinking is not normal. Normal people do not need to drink every day at 15 years old. And don't use the excuse of Dyspraxia to not seek help for your untreated alcoholism. I bet there are tons of people with Dyspraxia that don't drink every day like you do.

-Here is what I suggest you do.

1.First check out Alcoholics Anonymous online: https://www.aa.org/pages/en_US/what-is-aa

2. Look for a nearby Alcoholics Anonymous meeting: https://www.aa.org/pages/en_US/find-local-aa

3. If you don't want to check Alcoholics Anonymous I have heard that this book has helped some people. https://www.amazon.com/How-Quit-Drinking-without-Self-Help/dp/076151290X

​

Alright man I hope you seek help, Feel free to reply to this comment or direct message me if you need help.

Didn't see this as a post... but I have come across this book at Barnes & Nobles in the past, and had a cup of joe while reading through it:

I've been able to find control through all matter of stuff... Yet, I still have a few (3 or 4) a night. And I'm content with that. I'm not getting drunk to escape. I'm enjoying a mild buzz before I call it a day. _/_/ Cheers!
