There comes a time in our routines, that it becomes purely subconscious. We're on an automatic, alcohol-powered, "hung-over and shaking like mad" driven delirium, that we start flying blindly just to get some liquor in our system to try to feel better.
The drawback to the insanity: It only gets worse.
We drink to quell the raging cravings and to quench the thirst, but the body needs more. The mind requires MORE. Then we may reach a point in the true
allergy phase, where we cannot tolerate as much liquor in our system. It's a bizarre irony that usually ends in tragedy.
