Drank 5 bottles of wine around the clock on my last binge.

Went through a heavy coke phase where I was smoking it on top of a lot of booze...and chain smoking. I remember looking up at my friends. I'd been standing there and just fell over a coffee table, completely blacked out for a second.

Drove absolutely blotto countless times. Amazed I survived that, never even got a DUI.

Fell off the toilet into the bathtub, because a shower curtain obviously didn't break my fall. Hurt like hell. Several years later I had a chest Xray and the doc said "Do you know you have five broken ribs?"

Almost got hit by a train while tripping in college.

Have spent 3 days at music festivals on tons of alcohol and multiple substances. One of our party was a doc and she thinks I was going into serotonin syndrome.

I do have slight neurological damage. I believe I was in the very early stages of wet brain when I stopped. I had 2 of the three signs. If it had continued for another few weeks I'm sure it would have progressed.

This is why I have committed to NEVER taking a sip of alcohol again.
