I watched this documentary last night, http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v6vEe6eenpg and I think this is a good video for all, but particularly the young folks who come to MWO. If you are ever on the fence about your use of the drug alcohol, maybe this will validate your hunch that alcohol is not for you.

Thanks
I watched it---disheartening for certain.
Im starting to get my mind programmed to NOT care about anyone else---nor there ability ( or denial) to stay with alcohol. The substance only causes me pain and trouble...what a rotten deal.......4 hours per night of numbness...in exchange for 20 hours of wreckage.
The mathematics of this equation spells?.....ABSTINENCE! -

I watched this documentary last week and really liked it. It's scary to see how fast and how serious damage can be done to the body by alcohol. Most of us are lucky that we quit in time. My heart goes out to those still stuck in the cycle of addiction.:heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

I agree Lead. It is just numbness but I never lasted 4 hours as I'd guzzle the hard stuff too quickly.
K9, I still worry about liver damage as I've drunk for so long, I'm trying to go the attitude of gratitude route, but any pain in my side, whether real or imagined, helps to keep me away from the poison.Sometimes what you're most afraid of doing is the very thing that will set you free.Comment

Fortunately the liver is a very forgiving organ. However, if you are still worried try taking Milk Thistle. There is some very compelling research that suggests it can be a big help improving liver function (not so much if you are continuing to drink) I'm a big fan of Andrew Weil and he swears by it. i take 1000 mg/day.j-vo;1625848 wrote: I agree Lead.

Very hard hitting stuff but unfortunalty some people in their 20's and 30's just ignore the message or don't want to know. Heavy and binge drinking is every where. I wish had learned this at an earlier age as the information wasn't around or as up to date then. But its never to late to learn and stop.Comment
