Alcohol and anxiety

How can I break this cycle. I'm constantly anxious and have been drinking heavily for years. At least half a bottle of spirit. I have started a new job but am now drinking in the morning to calm my nerves and in the evening to get to sleep. I don't know how to break this cycle. On my days off I drink more to the point that I'm too intoxicated to leave the flat. The only days I don't drink is when I'm too physically I'll. I feel my life is a mess I've lost partner, my child, my family. I'm losing my looks and my health now and have no confidence. Has anyone found something that really works? My Dr won't give me antabuse.
