Sadly enough, Chief denies self the high-horsepower alcohol. Beer and wine only, now. Years of abuse and overindulgence make Chief's neurons 'sensitized' to Jack Daniels, Glenlivet, etc.--one stiff drink and speech get slurred, 3 stiff drinks and self control begin spending time elsewhere. And, no can stop...whiskey gone? Go get more...and more...and more...able to drink embarrassing amounts...throw up, keep drinking. Chief not get drunk and fight, but sure get sloppy. It also cause roller-coaster ride with Chief's blood sugar...which make some unpleasant demons emerge.

Whisky is just a bad thing for me. And even today, knowing this, if there were a 5th in front of me, I would still drink it up in heap big gulps, make gone in 3 hours, mebbe less and get very drunk.

Alcoholism=family disease that go back many generations.

I feel for you Chief. My brother fights that battle. Alcoholism has taken a terrible toll on Millies family as well. I don't stay awake long enough to get in trouble; I go to sleep after the second glass of table wine. LOL

Wyteyes, in many ways you heap lucky. Chief cannot begin to estimate how much money he has spent on liquor. It is a shameless amount, certainly.

I wish your brother the best. It is a hard, hard battle, but it can be won to some satisfaction. A good woman helps. Keeping busy helps. Avoiding drinking situations is critical, and having the solid support of loved ones make world of difference.
