I'm very loss for the loss of your mum, and recent troubles with your brother and now ex boyfriend. Unfortunately drink won't make you happy.

It may temporary until the next time you're sober, in which you'll feel a lot worse and damaging your health in the process.

Maybe you are still grieving for your mum, and/or have not talked things through properly with your ex to get closure?

You need to see a counsellor, as it seems the problems you mentioned earlier are the cause for this. You know first hand how drink can affect people, please do not see alcohol as the thing which will make it better.

Once you have identified and talked about your problems with a professional - they can give you more advice than what most of us here can give - then you can start to put your life back in order and get to those steps of feeling happy again.

I wish you lots of luck, let me know what you decide to do. :).
