Some have expressed concern about my drinking. It is embarrassing at times, I'll admit, to have the bottle with me wherever I go, sure, but there are many more signs of a drinking problem one must consider.
Symptoms I may exhibit;
Drinking myself to sleep,
I'm moody without my bottle,
I nap often,
I am technically unemployed,
I have a habit of soiling myself,
I do throw up routinely,
My lunch is almost always in liquid form.
However, the following signs are also glaringly absent;
I have made no enemies,
I have never been in a fight,
I have never been fired from a job,
I haven't been involved in any drinking and driving incidences,
My family actually encourages and enables my habit,
My older brother did so at my age without any long-term consequences.
Let's face it, yes, there are times when a drink just puts me in a better mood. Studies show that this is a normal phase for young people to go through. No more does a threesome in college make you a lesbian than a hammer of Thor bottle habit mean that I have a drinking problem.
Truth is, I could quit at any time, I just don't want to.
