Drinking helps distract me from life.
It’s not always the best idea.
Sometimes the distraction is worse than the reality.
Too often I drink alone.
Rarely does it end well.
Anything is better than the world we live in.
Can’t distract myself without it.
Too often it is also the cause of my reality.
I don’t know what to do.
Other people must have this problem too?
Nobody cares.

The Art of Adult Sobriety
The most sober way for adults to live is to let it all end here. The hardest challenge for any adult is taking back themselves. As you go further in life, you realize that what truly breaks you isn't the storms you face, but those moments when you know you should stop, but you can’t.
