Alcoholism killed my grandmother, my mom, and I almost killed me, quite literally. It would have killed my brother if he did not stop.
I would have to say that my tattoo is much safer.
By the time I picked-up my last drink, my liver was shot, and I was only 32. My memory and my nervious system will never be the same. Some things do not rebound completely. The medical literature doesn't scare us with info that is 'overblown'. On the contrary, our culture seems to encourage drinking- the mass media spends big bucks showing how cool it is to drink.
Well, it is not cool. I hid behind alcohol a long time and it worked for a while to help me deal with my anxiety. However, alcohol is also a depressant. It has played a large part in helping me become the messed-up person I am today.
