Alcohol is a depressant, but we crave for that feeling that alleviates our mood for a short while.

It just becomes another vicious cycle of pain, until you know whatever method that will pull you out of this cycle.

But in all honesty, I drank a while ago and got really wasted. The after-effect was so terrible, I had to tell myself it will end up worse if I continued. From the incident of emptying into a plastic bag at a friend's house, they refused to let me drink above 1/2 a cup anymore.

It's a detrimental process that you will embrace for now, but it's gonna kill you eventually.
