Alcoholism... Disease or lack of will (heart, cancer, nerves, treated) - Mental well-being and mental disorders - City-Data Forum

Does that mean what alcohol can do coz half of us people on here suffer mainly depression and anxiety

When everyone around me told me to stop and my life was crashing to the ground, I continued to drink and drug. When I had no money I always managed to come up with money to drink. Being on intensive probation did no stop me from boozing even though I had to take random breathaylzers/drug tests. Being without a roof over my head didn't stop me from boozing either. After overdosing & being admitted to the hospital I immediately signed out and walked a few blocks to the liquor store. I would say I had a lot of will power.

McGowdog (from the McGowdoghouse blog) certainly makes the rounds. I haven't seen him post on SR in a very long time until relatively recently. Although our ideologies are necessarily diametrically opposed, I do agree with some of his points. To his credit, he does recognize some valid concerns from the xA movement. I hope he will make a more regular appearance on here, as I do believe we share common ground in many respects.

What? I don't understand your question.

...a "normie" forum??

Well I did learn the word "normie" from this forum.

I was referring to people who maybe aren't affected by alcoholism/addiction whatsoever.

I don't know. I'm sorry.
