quote:
and i'm telling you that some people drink because they like drinking.
I never claimed that everyone who drinks is a problem drinker.
Most people are not problem drinkers. I myself drink wine quite frequently and mixed drinks every once in a while. I like the taste of certain alcoholic beverages, too.
quote:
i'm not depressed or escaping my problems or angry or not contributing to society.
Call me crazy, but to me you come across as angry, especially when you call people names and hurl insults as you so often do.
When I said that it is undeniable that many people use alcohol to avoid dealing with their problems, I was not talking about you, specifically. Why do you think that everything I say is about you, personally?
Listen, if I want to say saomething to you, I will. If I say something about "many people" it means that I am saying something about "many people".
