Chow,
Basically, I drank because I was heavily physically and mentally addicted.
Each quit w relapse caused more brain damage.
I was a nervous wreck the whole time I was drinking.
When I quit, the paranoia began to manifest.
I still crave at nearly 3 years w only minor slips.
I am so much better though. I am a whole different person.
My work mates are seeing the change and I feel they don't get it.
It is a good change.
I don't brag about quitting booze. Normies don't get it.
Active addicts resent it or Don't get it.
Thanks
