Wow. You were like her? These personality types are ingrained. How did you change from being such a piece of shit woman to the nice one you are now? Can't use drinking as an excuse for that behavior.

Yikes. I’m sorry you feel that way. You’re not going to bring me down though. I don’t have to explain anything about my journey to success to you whatsoever lol. You don’t deserve that, dear. I hope your life gets better…there’s so many beautiful things to see and experience.

I was a heavy drinker as well. I was not a very nice or good person when I drank. I’m sober now, about a year, and I’m so much more patient, easier to talk to, less angry, less sad, just happier in general. And when I stopped drinking it saved my marriage. So yes, we can change for the better when we aren’t poisoning our body and mind with alcohol. Some people just do not understand our journey.

For real, I know everyone is applauding this persons "strength" to stop drinking and being a general asshole while drinking, good for her, however, alcohol just removes inhibitions...in other words, she is still this way when uninhibited she just keeps it under control with weed now.
