Honestly, stages 3-5 are superfluous since they also happen between every other two stages. And before. And afterward.
True, but prior to that, it was happy drinking. Now it’s just “hide the pain, Harold” drinking.
I’m still between steps 1 and 2. I should maybe try progressing along the path.
NGL, stage 3 suuuuucks but it gets (a little) better after stage 4.
Push through it, lightweight - stage 5 is where it’s really at!
(Please don’t actually do this - nor listen to anyone idiotic enough to suggest this unironically:-D)
With the exception of 6 I’ve been following the same trajectory. I’m not even American and I’m not sure my liver is going to be able to take it.
That’s called alcoholism
I should know because I’m a recovering alcoholic.
6.5 is a weird cusp to get wedged in
But 2 through 5 is just my whole life?
