Thank holy mudder of gawd I never killed anyone or myself. It took me quite a long time to grow out of it, but now I'm clean and haven't done drugs since I don't know when and stopped drinking six months ago. I now may have a drink or two here and then, but I don't feel the need to be sedated anymore.
"Sedated" there's nothing wrong with getting *****ed up like you are- just don't be an idiot and drive home. Stay at a friend's, have someone else drive you home, or call a cab. ALL of those are cheaper than if you were to get a ticket for a DUI. It may be a pain-in-the-ass to have to get your vehicle the next day, but I'd rather have to do that, then have my insurance rates go up, lose my license for a year, spend possible jail time, and endure the insurmountable court costs.
And that is ONLY if you get pulled over- wreck your vehicle and it will be even more money. Wreck your vehicle and injure yourself, and it's even greater money. Wreck your vehicle and kill someone else, and your life is over too.

I know too well that we all make a choice eventually. I'm proud of you - and pulling for you. I reduced my beverage drinking significantly last year. I'll still have 3 or 4 - 6 a few nights ago at my own home but gone are the days of 12-24 beers. I don't miss them either.
