Alcohol - a dangerous friend

[D2134]

I have stopped drinking almost completely lately...I am amazed at how much sharper I feel. It's like my IQ jumped about 10 points.

Whenever I used to go on a heavy drinking binge (between 10-20 drinks in a night) I would feel like crap for 1-2 weeks afterwards. The only way I can think to describe it is like life didn't have as high of a frame rate. Things just weren't smooth. I mean, yea, I seemed fine, but now I know I really wasn't 100% there. I had so much more inside of me that was just being drowned away...

What made you stop drinking?

It was a very long process. And no, I havn't stopped, just moderated it. I can't rule out another relapse...but that just means that my guard is still up and I know I can't ever think I've beaten it.

Just got sick of feeling sick. Sick of the hangovers, sick of the guilt, sick of dissapointing people.

The only reason I do it is legality. I think it is the most insidious drug that exists. It has all the dependance with so much more damage to the body than other drugs. On top of that, let's mention that it does make you gain weight and lose even more self-respect as your body image suffers.

I can drown away my pain all I want. It won't produce a hero, a saviour, or a solution. It will only destroy me...Sometimes I think experience is the only way to realize that.

its good to do that now and again...not only does it open your eyes to how people look at drunks...but it makes the alcohol more effective next time you go drinking
