Hi EH.
A lot of alcoholics talk about feeling there was something wrong before ever touching alcohol. I was like that, I felt like a misfit. I am sure others suffered from all kinds of things. Then along came alcohol. It was not the problem, it was the solution, until it stopped working. When alcohol stopped working, another solution had to be found.
