Tool – Sober Lyrics 4 years ago
@[HammerFloyd:37542]
Hi, one if the best comments on the lyrics of Sober that I've read. I just had to say something as I haven't thought about my alcoholism for a long time, I occasionally need reminding as I finally succeeded in overcoming my burden 18 years ago(probably the hardest thing I've ever done, as I originally really enjoyed social and going out, and wasn't addicted)
My addiction happened rather quickly...
(a year to becoming an extremely heavy drinker of vodka, a
"self-medicator" - which then lasted a year or so, including trying to hide the amount that I drunk. Litre of vodka daily, plus wines and beers. )
....in my late 30s after a series of circumstances.
I was successful after several failed attempts as an inpatient, then finally realising that it was causing others so much pain, and a specialist doctors support and encouragement. I was very lucky that my body managed to recover.
You are very perceptive. Plus excuse my messy sentences and paragraphs, I rarely type.
Regards
John in England.
