I have been questioning myself for a while and have talked to my parents. They don't think I have a problem. I can't help but wonder. Someone, whose opinion I put some credit to told me that I have a form of alcoholism. I don't drink regularly. When I do drink it is usually ridiculous. And I have displayed this tendency to be at extremes in other areas of my life. Does anyone else know what I'm talking about or what it is that I'm experiencing when I talk about being one to go to extremes; like I went from being someone who suppressed emotions to someone who says everything that she feels and thinks. But anyway, when I do drink it's to the point of intoxication sometimes to the point of being falling down drunk. The thing I've found that I like that intoxicated feeling. I guess I feel extremely happy, sociable and my inhibitions or harsh feelings toward others, particularly toward the opposite sex seem to relax some. (I was raped by my stepbrother at a young age, which I think effects my relating to the male gender). Does anyone have an opinion or view? Thanks in advance for any advice.
