Smiling, I didn't like beer so I couldn't be an alcoholic. It took a long time to register, it isn't what you drank or how much you drank, it was what it did to you when you did drink, whatever it may be. I fell in love with Coca-Cola at the age of 14. It was forbidden and I was not allowed to drink it because my mother heard that there was coke in it. When I was 17 I left home, got a job and then I could buy it for myself. When I was drinking, you could take away my alcohol if you had to, but God help your soul if you took my Coca-Cola.
The substance is but a symptom of my disease, my problem is me.
