I'm a high functioning alcoholic, and denial is extraordinarily strong amongst us (other HFAs). Denial is just another enabler to being essentially blotto all the time. I lived in complete denial for 15 years before some of my HFA buddies started burning their lives down in rather spectacular ways. I didn't want my life to serve as a warning to others, so I quit. Luckily, I didn't lose anything along the way, but many have, even many of the HFA's I used to know.
