Have a buddy that was in real bad shape a few weeks ago, hid a big drinking problem for the couple of years I have known him. His partner finally told our friend group that he had an opiates issue and a drinking problem and has had a few trips to rehab, he thought he had it under control but work has been going well and he got a promotion and evidently that just fucked him up bad thinking about inevitable failure at the new position and he started drinking very heavy again. Lying about going to work and spending his days waiting for the liquor store to open and then just drinking in the parking lot and then coming back home like he worked a full day, wild as hell to me but I am lazy so I don't I think could do that. We reached out to his family in Abilene and they got us in touch with his old sponsor, that dude came and laid the hammer down and basically said quit your shit or you are going back to rehab, seems to have worked so far and he has stayed clean. Kind of crazy how well he hid it though
It caused me to think about my drinking quite a bit as it was said a few times damn I feel like you drink more than he does, uhh thanks I guess. Anyways I am trying to cut back so we will see how well I can keep it together. Also @ztejas man you were right about not starting nicotine shit I don't know what the hell has happened but these past 2 weeks I have found myself bumming cigarettes from people more than I have in the past 10 years of my life. I have to figure that shit out also
