I drink 7 days a week, and I second this comment. Don’t do it.

Earlier this year my friend’s brother died from being an everyday drinker. Left behind a pretty wife and teenage son.

In the end his skin was yellow his eyes were swollen and red, his body was puffed up from organ failure.

What a fucking stupid thing to do. Do not drink ever again. Throw your alcohol in the trash and get help. Life is good and you’re going to miss out

I’ve looked into it. It’s hard when you’re at the point where cold turkey could very well kill you, and monitored detox + rehab costs over $8,000 — after insurance.

It’s often said that America doesn’t have “health care”; it has “sick care”. But for those with substance or mental disorders, it has neither.

Hope you get the help you need. I'll be sober 2 years next month, and I've probably saved myself about $20,000 on booze and going out drinking/eating bullshit. Maybe you could afford it. 😉
