You dont get paid at all at Rock in Prevention....and coming from me, I did a telethon for them from 12:00am to 6:00am one day, and granted I was tired but I felt better. I do not make the best choices for myself, but the few people who really know me (srry guys they are all female and they know who they are) know that Im battling my own deamons with alcohol. I wish that people would drink in moderation. I used to drink till I passed out, but now that my tolerance for alcohol is so high, hence the being able to chug an entire bottle of Captain and still not feel sick at all, it would be life-risking to drink till I passed out. I would be the first to admit that Im battling the first stages of alcoholism, sad to say but true. My life hasnt been all roses and sunshine lately and people keepindirectly putting me down. I am so glad I have friends that understand that I drink and Im not exactly proud of it. Im on the other side of the fence than Adam, but we have the same views. Granted it doesnt seem like it, but I do have values and morals too. I dont show it through my actions but Im trying to change my life. I quit smoking anything entirely all together....I know, big deal, but I am trying to turn my life around.
Alcohol ruins lives. My great-grandpa is dead thanks to the effects of alcohol on his liver. My grandpa beat the habit after 30-40 years of hard drinking. My father battled alcoholism all through his 20's. And here's me, a 4th generation alcoholic....I wish I knew a way out.
The people who say to me "Just quit drinking...." are the ones who dont know what it feels like to be depressed and feel like alcohol is the solution. Im trying to replace alcohol with school, intermurals, working out, and a job. I want to quit, not for good cause this is college, but not so much in my life. I am a smart drinker nowadays and I drink in moderation...and I feel that others should do the same.
Thanks for reading this cause I needed to get this off my chest.
