Alcohol

[lupestripe]

Can any one substance cause more problems, more insecurity and more trouble than this one? I'm starting to come round to the opinion that it should be outlawed (although I am aware that that will never work or happen in reality).

Either that or I really should never touch it again as all that happens is I feel like shit the next day and regret everything I did and said the night before.

Alcohol shouldn't be outlawed but should be treated with caution whoever touches it.

I wouldn't use the drink as a means of escape from problems, hell, i did it once a few years back, big mistake but I learned from that, never did it again. what you need to do is either think about the intake in future (ie. enough to keep from hangover) and just be more aware of your emotions before you start. I know you're a bang up guy and so does everybody else, we all have our moments of feeling insignificant. It's just part of life.

Thanks for your kind words hun, they're much appreciated.

I have had bouts of alcoholism in the past, benders that have lasted three months because of my unhappiness. I have also had people be worried about my alcohol consumption, particularly as I was drinking to the point of causing my liver to permanently ache.

I learned a lot from those days and will never go back there again. Unfortunately when drunk, my own sense of insignificance comes to the fore and it is this that causes problems *hugs*
