Alcoholics drink things with alcohol, whether ethyl or methyl or whatever.
I used to gulp down Nyquil before going to bed.
When I was in treatment, we had a guy who was doing the same with Old Spice, which is my preferred scent, but you could smell this guy coming a mile away.
Kitty Dukakis, wife of Michael Dukakis, drank rubbing alcohol before getting sober.
Personally, I use hand sanitizer (for it's intended purpose), but I keep in mind while doing so that it is alcohol and I am very careful about letting it dry before I touch my mouth afterward.
Old habits die hard, which is okay with me when it comes to alcohol.
And I sure don't use mouthwash with alcohol in it.
