I have been functionable for these years but slowly am getting lazier and finding it harder to quit for short periods of time.Got some health issues like high blood pressure,50lbs overweight,anxiety(zoloft),and some panic attacks(klonopin) along with a fatty liver.I stopped for a month this year and felt so good I celebrated with a six pack and wound up back where I was.I figured I could do the controlled drinking thing(1 or 2 beers a day) but that did not work out as planned.I will be going for sobriety again before some major crises comes up from my behavoir.Ive been pretty fortunate over the years considering how I lived,wife stilll here,no dui's,employed,and so on.My habits begin when I get home from work at 3pm and last until about 5-6pm,getting the buzz I like ,eat and then sleep by 8pm only to wake at 2am for a while.Im hoping by writing this I willl get som feedback and have something to do on my off time.Thanks
