what do you mean by late stage? Is that like developing alcoholism late in life? I have been sober for nearly 8 years.

Anyways, I'm so depressed & alone. I feel hopeless & like completely giving up on everything. Nothing matters. I feel like getting drunk & continuing where I left off, frankly. Which of course happens. I don't care anymore. At least alcohol made me happy until I had too many that day.

What were the negative things that you associate with alcoholism and alcohol abuse. What happened when you stopped? Did you go through withdrawals or detox?

Then I'd just go to sleep, anyways. I was never proud of myself for sobriety.

Why do you think this is?

Anyways, I hear alcohol calling me back. Its very far away, now since I'm on 4 yrs. But the voice didn't disappear. I know for a fact alcohol will give me an enjoyable day.

If alcohol made you happy and have good days then why did you stop drinking?
