Quote:
IMO your comparison to diabetes is apples and oranges.


I don't think it is.

Yes, I have first hand experience with alcoholism and diabetes. And the fact remains, if you're an alcoholic or a diabetic, the only person that's going to keep you alive is you.

You try keeping your blood sugars in control for 40 f'n years with the constant temptation to eat something you shouldn't and shave time off your life.

Everyone likes to believe their struggles are more difficult than the other guys' struggles.
