In the UK doctors are seeing exponentially more young adults with cirrhosis. People in the mid twenties. People who would describe themselves as "social drinkers" only. Media doesn't cover alcohol abuse. For every news article that has a new case study on negative effects of THC they will have one "1-2 drinks a day increases brain performance" or some BS.

yeah, my mom's cousin just dropped dead from an aneurysm in the aorta and my mom just had her gall bladder removed because she was also diagnosed with the start of an aneurysm (they say it's genetic) so the whole rotting insides thing really bothers me and I should honestly take better care of myself, stop drinking so much, stop taking large amounts of pills just to sleep.
I think this latest episode of acid reflux was brought on because I had a couple energy drinks the past couple days (for sale day) and I'm really sensitive to that. I've also been drinking a lot of fruit juice, which is also a killer of insides. blech. I'm a disaster.

I've gone pretty natural the past several weeks but the liquor is obviously not as healthy as the rest of the stuff going into my body.
the eternal struggle of someone who can't deal with sobriety.
