- hug 9y agoMan, that sucks. Like really sucks. Not that you were self medicating -- that's probably, like, not the worst thing you could have done, all things considered -- but that you have ADD & bipolar. I hope that, despite the setbacks you may have faced and despite the fact that alcohol may have been a crutch for you, you've landed on your feet. Thank you for replying and sharing the tiny sliver of insight into your life. It might not mean a whole lot to you but it means a whole lot to me. I'm not bipolar, I don't have ADD or depression or any number of those other things that alcohol might be a mask for: I just really like drinking. But I hope that if anyone else reads this recognises that something might be wrong, it helps.
