I am sorry to hear you are struggling with this, but at least you are aware of the dangers you could be headed for. I hear the va rehabilitation facilities can be really good, in the right places. I would at least look into getting involved in the community AA meetings in your area. They are in every town, as far as I know. I have heard they also can be a great support system for those who have problems with alcohol and for those who have family members who are alcoholic. I am no expert, of course, but you may find some good friends this way who can give you hope for yourself. If you feel like drinking beer is affecting your ability to function as you normally do, I would definitely look into some kind of treatment.
Again, congratulations for recognizing this at what seems to be an early point. You may be able to avoid more serious problems (in regards to mental, physical and emotional health.)
