Personal stories
Hi, I'm 21 years old. I've been sober for two months now, after a little more than a year of touching the uplifting, yet utterly dangerous drug alcohol, but not really doing well mentally: I've got a feeling I took it too far. I find that I can do perfectly without alcohol now, though. I don't want to damage myself even further, but I fear it's too late to save my head.
So on to what I'm really looking for, because I personally feel it's often overlooked, whenever I read testimonies about people dealing with alcoholism:
a) Has the alcohol affected your brain?
b) How do you cope/ Does it ever get remotely fixed?
I know, I've made a similar post before, so I don't want to be annoying, but I'm really anxious and would like to hear from others, who go through the same ordeal as me e.g.: trouble with memory, taking in conversations, not much thoughts going on, very down in the dumps.
