I'm 28 and have been a functioning alcoholic for 7 years
If someone who was non-alcoholic took up your habits, what would happen?
Die of course, but I'm different.
I'm sorry that alcohol is taking so much of a toll on your life. You need to try to stop that now before it becomes too late with liver disease or mental impairment.
It's just a better way to enjoy activities, not an alcohol problem.
I think you might be in denial about what alcohol does to you. It's so sad when people succumb to addiction. It's best to admit you have a problem so you can get the help you need.
