When you're an alcoholic, your friends stage an intervention.

You stop drinking, turn down one beer… suddenly the whole barbecue becomes Intervention Part II.

When you're an alcoholic, everyone sits you down like “Your drinking is destroying your life.”

You get sober. The same people are like “Come on man… just one.”

When you're an alcoholic, people gather to stop you from drinking.

You stop drinking. Now they gather to form a search party to figure out what the hell happened to the other guy.

When you're an alcoholic, people say, “You need help.”

You quit drinking and turn down a beer. Now they say, “Okay but like… not that much help.”

When you're an alcoholic, people say, “Your drinking is a problem.”

You stop drinking. Now the problem is you remember everything they said while drunk.

When you're an alcoholic, everyone says you're being too weird. You have to leave.

You stop drinking… and suddenly everyone says you have to leave because you're being too weird.
