Somehow when I quit drinking my wrinkles started to appear more noticeable. My acne has come back with a vengeance. The overall texture is red, blotchy, and waxy looking. After 4 weeks of sobriety I looked even worse. Skin was horrible, hair was dry and brittle. I can't stand the thought of living the rest of my life like this. You can call me vain and try for the rest of your life to convince me this doesn't matter, but to me it does.
