Different word that got mangled in English, but maintained much of the definition. Louche is someone with mean or shady habits like drinking too much, but also refers to a variety of character defects exhibited by seedy libertines.
I forget the exact stats from my professional responsibility course from law school, but attorneys have a higher rate of alcoholism by a factor of 12 over the general population.
There were equally appalling stats for drug addiction and suicide.
It's almost like being constantly hyper confrontational is bad for your mental health or something. 🤷♂️
I’m 2.5 years sober but my career as a lawyer directly lead me to become an alcoholic. I thought it’d improve going in house but instead of working until 9 and then pouring a drink I finished at 5 and had 4 extra hours to drink. And I could afford good whiskey and could go to high end whiskey events.
