wanting to quit drinking

I have anxiety and drinking takes away my worries.  I don't like myself at all and have been trying to be this perfect girl my whole life.  Well, it isn't working.  When I do something stupid like drink ......i can't remember what I did...then I get down on myself more.  So yes I drink because of  reason.
