      I am very fortunate in that I love to drink and alcohol makes me happy and friendly and silly. I have the potential to embarrass myself but almost no risk of terminating a friendship.

        Same. I just get real talkative and all my negative emotions leave my body (at least until hangover time comes around). By contrast when I’m sober I’m usually very quiet and stay out of the conversation. Drinking fairly regularly for two decades now I’ve never had a “drunk asshole” moment like a lot of people seem to do. Even when I’ve gotten into arguments and things like that. I just don’t get angry.

        Same, except the hangxiety says something completely different. Don’t drink much anymore.

      My brother’s first roommate was an alcoholic. First time I saw him sober it completely caught me off guard cause he was so much fun to be around when he was drunk, but a completely normal and boring dude while sober.

      I hope he got the help he needs.
