I'm the last person to give advice as I've been trying to nip this in the bud for over a year since joining SR. I think you really need to just accept the facts at hand here. This is risky behavior that will lead to major health problems. A few days ago I felt like I was having a heart attack coming off three to four days of heavy drinking. It was a close call to say the least and I never want to feel this scared again. Don't let it get this bad for you because it eventually will if you keep drinking. I was lucky to make it out alive.
