I found the psycoactive/dulling effects of alcohol rather more intense than the effects from smoking, so i'm not supprised my brain threw more of a hissy fit when i decided to quit drinking than smoking .
Knowing what I'm like, I'm sure i'd find that true if i'd tried "harder" drugs .
My life is a journey of experience , i like to share and exchange experience with others who've coped with simmalar things as myself , if one peson who found alcohol the overall bad experience as i did and is aided by something i've done or said here then thats great .
I'm also aware of how complacent us humans can become and i'm aware of it in myself , so by encouraging people newly sober it reminds me of where i once was and don't want to return to . I doubt if i will go back but it's worth being proactive about such things .
