And if i dont understand it, than no one else can either. until i figure out whats really wrong with me it wont make any difference if i'm sober or not.
im not sure if that was on-topic or not, but i had to get it out
For me, the alcohol is a symptom of the other problems in my life... And ALSO, it's a cause of many more problems in my life.
Would I have ever taken too many drinks if my first marriage hadn't sucked ass? Perhaps not... but would I know what jail is like without alcohol? Almost certainly not
