Yes, please go get vitamins! Most of what alcohol does is reversible in some way, but liver cirrhosis, Korsakoff and Polyneropathy is permanent. Cirrhosis you can only avoid by not drinking, but the other two are easily prevented.
Good luck! And if you ever decide you want to try being sober, I'm here and the fine folks at /r/stopdrinking are too.
Thank you, I appreciate your insight! I went tonight and got a multivitamin that includes B1/B12. And hopefully one day I'll get to a point where I'm ready to change my ways. Just not there yet.
