I craved love and attention one on one though. I was always looking for that relationship. The "one". The one that was going to love me, save me, take care of things...the so called knight in shining armor but my expectations of what or how a relationship should be was not reality so they always ended and then I drank that away too.

Even people I knew well in 3D, I did not want to talk with them in person, but via email. I think this was in part, on one hand, being trapped in my own mind and madness, and on the other hand a very pronounced insecurity and self-consciousness that blocked me from getting out of this and interacting normally, also from asking for help.
Misery does love company, doesn't it?

Or maybe a more basic reason is that when we're drunk or stoned, it's much simpler to pretend we're something more complex and enigmatic if we're not being physically observed. Doesn't mean we aren't complex and enigmatic, it just becomes apparent to even the dimmest observer when someone is physically too blotto to stand up straight!
Alright maybe enough, don't want to start a discussion on authenticity now
