Yes. Not specifically illegal, although that definitely figured in the Venn Diagram of the Big Bad that I became convinced would occur if I kept drinking the way I was. I would wake up with the constant thought that sooner or later Something Bad was going to happen -- something that would cost me my job, friends, family, and yes, maybe even my liberty. That my luck would run out.
There are so many joys to not drinking but freedom from that fear is one of the main ones for me. Thank you for reminding me of that today.
