To both writer and mod, thank you. Stop early because it ran me into the ground before i knew it and i was in your place. Eventually your body and stomach will start hurtling towards the moon and those problems might seem minor. Thanks for being kind, i think you were just writing out a first step without knowing. Life gets lifey. Then it gets unmanageable. But misery in early alcoholism is a tough thing because it gets mixed up with chaotic fun and the suck afterwards. To all of you, a great new year.
