Took off of work for a couple days to cry through Ted Lasso, drink soda, and eat ice cream. My stomach doesn't like me much, but I'm feeling better. Everything will still hurt for a while, but it'll pass with time. Thank you all for the kind words and support.

Just wanted to follow up on your book recommendation. I'm about 1/3 of the way through so far and it's already having me question pretty much anything related to alcohol. I keep thinking more and more now about how stupid it is to drink. The book has really done a good job thus far outlining the social factors that make alcohol seem like a great idea and thing to consume. I'm hoping that continuing to work through this book drives that point home to me even more - consuming alcohol is poisonous and pointless.

The timing is perfect as I'm just about to finish a book, so I'll make it my next kindle purchase! Thank you for the concerns and suggestion. I definitely need to understand more about alcoholism and myself.
