I used to be someone who liked alcohol.
I drank two bottles alone, and when I met with acquaintances, I usually drank at least two bottles. The day I drank the most, I went up to 5 or 6 bottles. I think I drank alcohol about five days a week.
However, after experiencing a recent unfortunate incident, I had many thoughts.
I knew I would ruin my life with alcohol eventually, but I didn't think I would ruin it this quickly...
Perhaps it is a final chance given from the sky. It might also mean to stop before causing a bigger accident.
So, my current thought is to abstain from alcohol for a lifetime.
I couldn't control my drinking, and whenever we gathered, drinking heavily became a habit, and I also recall some mistakes I made. I have forgiven myself for those mistakes over time, but I simply cannot forgive myself for this recent mistake. (It wasn't drunk driving, but a mistake in human relationships.)
I am not trying to force others to abstain from alcohol.
I think it's not a bad thing to enjoy alcohol in moderation and control it. However, for someone like me who can't control it, I wonder if it's better not to drink at all.
I organized my thoughts after some time has passed; for those who have had similar experiences, what kind of thoughts did you have?
