DEPRESSION: Your description is one of classic depression. Your alcohol use contributes. Your tobacco use is self-destructive and and another symptom of depression. You will be unlikely to "lift yourself up by your own bootstraps". You need professional help. Seek counseling, whether that's psychological, psychiatric, clergy, spiritual, in a group or individually. Please get help. Do it today. The time is now

Stop alcohol: and see a doctor. Your situation will require a doctor spending time to review your history, examine you, and maybe even getting some blood tests. Drinking alcohol moderately (your profile says) definitely does not help. On the other hand, you may already have tried to stop drinking and can't stop without help. If that is the case, talk to your doctor and get help to stop drinking alcohol.
