My name is jay, and I'm an alcoholic.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure drinking is a fine thing to do if you can handle it, but it's a shitty escape from reality. The problem with me was that I would drink because I was unhappy; it would make me feel different, but not better, so I would drink more and more. Then it would make me frustrated, sometimes angry, always confused, always crazy. The blacking out wasn't fun either; being told about all the stupid stuff I did by my friends... terrible. At least I only ever hurt myself; never drove a car thank god.
I'll still have a beer or a wine if it's time, but I just nurse it because I know what it does to me. I'm glad those days are behind me.
