How to stop drinking in a world that is on its way to collapse?

I know it probably doesn't help much but your feelings about the world are the same as mine and the reason I keep relapsing as well.

It doesn't mean that you're weak for not being able to stop or that your view on the world is right or wrong, but it is incredibly hard to carry the burden of seeing such a future.

I've been doing better lately by trying to limit my worries to things I can influence, and by thinking that other people have gone through famine, war and disaster and came out alright or even stronger. So maybe we as a species can too.

In a way, its like the saying they use in AA: grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, and Wisdom to know the difference
