When an Alcoholic Hits the Bottom

When an alcoholic hits the bottom, it's a point at which they can't take it anymore. The alcoholic has to make a change at this point because they know that if they don't; the alternative is death by slowly and painfully drinking themselves into oblivion.

Bottom

Every alcoholic has a different point at which they'd consider it their bottom. The day-to-day duties of life are a chore for the alcoholic who only wants to drink alcohol and to stay drunk as long as humanly possible every single day.

You're Drunk

First, you get ostracized; all of your friends and family no longer want to hang around you because you're drunk and obnoxious all the time. You may find yourself getting paranoid and notice that every one is staring at you all the time when you're drunk, and not in a good way. People will give you a look of shame and embarrassment. It's as if they're saying," man, you look like crap. How could you do this to yourself?" As you walk away and bury your head in shame; the sad fact is that there is no way to fix this in your drunken state.

Insanity

The insanity that the alcoholic faces is getting drunk every day and somehow expecting things to get better. The ironic twist is that the more alcohol you drink, the worse things get.

The Alcoholic

The alcoholic may lose their home, their family, and all the money that they have and yet; even after all of this, they still want to get drunk so that they don't have to deal with anything.

My Alcoholic Journey
