If you have ever watched a loved one go through alcohol withdrawal, you would never touch another drop.
I have watched it and I do touch drops. The addictions of others have no bearing on my behavior.
Should I stop eating because some folks have eating disorders?

“If you have ever watched a loved one go through alcohol withdrawal, you would never touch another drop.”
Many people enjoy it occasionally, and have no alcoholic risks. The abuse of a few does not discourage me from an evening on the porch with a couple of whiskeys. Takes the edge off a cold boring Saturday and is a good thing. And I don’t think its a disease either. No more than too much pizza and linguini is a disease.
Not everyone who imbibes is destined to become a raging alcoholic.
I have watched an alcoholic go through withdrawal and am dealing with another alcoholic right now, who just is a non functioning human being.
He was sober for 7 months and literally jump off the wagon one night and has been on a roll for now going on 4 months.
Constantly scamming people for his partying.
I didn’t drink for a year, to be an example to him.
Didn’t make a bit of difference, as I expected but, wanted to demonstrate that a decision can be made.
He hasn’t been home but a couple of days and I sure would like to hear his scam pitch.
Dude has never worked in the 25 years I’ve known him, which kinduh makes sense since he spent 1/2 that time in jail for stupid things.
Still, he never wants to work so he can afford anything.
He really believes he can go on like this forever.
Moron knows everyone in Hollywood too and I’ve heard celebrity friends give him life talks about moving past this insane lifestyle that prevents him from ever doing anything in Hollywood.
His drinking has screwed up some amazing opportunities over and over again.
Idiot.
Me? I went had beers with friends during World Series and the occasional drinks with friends since.
Don’t drink December as a rule, so I can never be pulled over for DUI.
A friend was killed in an auto accident. I still drive.
