As you know, I go through the same thing. Hits me like a train every time. I avoid alcohol when I feel it coming on, or even when I feel high as a kite. After all, it is a depressant, but I'm also not going to preach about that on my fake "high horse", considering I know I'm an alcoholic. I have no right to tell you to quit, but I will ask that you keep cautious with it. Reafer is a nice counter, sometimes.
