It depends. If I've been sober for a few days I do feel a little thrill when I decide to dive in to the bottle. And I do enjoy the inibriation, until I start stressing about shutting down the night so I can function the next day and I'm chugging water and calculating how many hours sleep I can get and popping half a Tylenol PM so I don't wake up at 5am and can't get back to sleep... etc

If I'm in the middle of a bender then the quote above is so so true
