I had and still have to deal with the aftermath of alcoholism, not me but a person close to me. It's hell.

It's stupid, on one side you might be tempted to get away from all the **** it creates by drinking too but you're not being any better than the problem itself. So all of that made that I will probably never really enjoy alcohol/drugs so I don't drink/smoke at all.

Plus, when I drink, I still feel like I'm all there just a bit dumber and can't walk straight. Not worth the money if you ask me.
