Oh i know the damage from first hand myself, i mean i was kind of an alcoholic at the age of 17, i mean i would get up around 10, get drunk 12 then again around 8 and this would go for months, by the end, my hands would shake, my head would hurt and i wouldnt be able to talk normaly unless i've had my drink, it was sad really. Managed to get over it though (Jesus saves) and went back to normal drinking, maybe less than 10 times per year. However after my onesided love i started to drink again. Im trying to get my shit together for the university and hopefuly go back to normal. She wouldnt like a drunk anyways.
