Yeah, my exabf used to blame it on the fact that he lived in a cr*ppy house with a bunch of slackers.
I tried to explain that most normal healthy people don't deal with bad livigin situations by DRINKING-that drinking is a maladaptive coping mechanism.
Not to mention, if he wasn't spending money on going to the bar, he could save up to move out.
I might as well have been talking to the wall.
That was my first inkling he had a serious problem, frankly.
And of course, he moved out of that house 2 yrs ago but still binge drinks like crazy.

No reason. Every reason.
