I was always a whiskey drinker but as my disease progressed and I started needing a drink every couple hours I switched to cheap vodka as I believed you couldn't smell it. To be honest I can barely even stand the slightest thought of it now as I literally get nauseated.
As I progressed further into Hell I became less picky and started drinking wine and then beer. I wasn't drinking for taste but rather to stave off withdrawals. It was a horrible time in my life and the thought (and smell) of any of it now just sickens me.
