I have dealt with Alcholoism myself and with many others. My Step Brother, My Nephew, my Best Freind & more are DEAD. DEAD. In the fucking ground. DEAD. Another is sick as hell. That however is not enuf of an illistration to stop others from drinking themselves to death. I watched many kill themselves this way and I refuse to watch it anymore. I tried to help and only ended up hurting myself and they killed themselves anyway. I am going to start protecting myself from my own desire to help. I only get hurt again and again. I am totally heart broken over this again. I dont give up, but I have to gove up helping people that wont help themselves. So drink up, Cheers, I wont come to the Funeral. I stopped (only because I got sick – I am a stubborn fool too) & saved my life so I could, Carry On…MM
