Alcoholism

Something I’ve recently learned the hard way: alcoholism is so, so much worse than you think. Even if you imagine you’re aware of the behavioral issues, it’s extremely surprising (and horrifying) to witness up close. In my case, it was one of the people I’ve most respected for over 30 years. 

It’s not just the stuff you’d expect from protracted sloppy drunkenness. It’s a hollowing-out (of intellect, judgement, initiative, morality, kindness). It’s some real vampire/zombie shit. 

Control your drinking.
