So you just keep drinking & drinking until you start losing things, like you friends, your job, your home, your family, etc. It happens -- and it WILL happen if you keep this up.

Be careful -- VERY careful. Alcohol also KILLS. I don't want you to die.
I too stepped cross that line into alcoholism,when i was in my early 30s,am in my late 30s now and no longer drink,but it's been a long hard journey to get back,the self respect for my self is still not complete,and i dont think it ever will be.Please talk to someone rather than medicate with alcohol,please
Thanks for this!
