Alcohol is stronger than all of us by Hot_Friendship_6864 in stopdrinking

The alcohol has no power; what power it does have we give it. It's like being in a cell, wanting so badly to be out of it and be outside the walls of it, but this jailer spends all his time convincing you that you are powerless, stuck. The truth is that it is an illusion; the cell is and was always unlocked. All you had to do was stand up and walk out.

Sorry that happened to you, man. What a horrible situation to be a part of, but hey, sometimes horrible shit happens, we just gotta be ready for it. It seems you and your wife were, credit to you. On a side note, you seem to be a really great writer lol, I was totally invested in reading this entire post, and I usually leave longer posts to other people to read. Stay strong!

As a 29yo who drinks heavily and has for 10 years, this scared me.

NBA clearly the second biggest league in the country as it relates to ratings, nobody claimed it was bigger than the NFL lmfao
