My annoyance is that we aren't taught about alcoholism or that alcohol (and caffeine) are drugs.

Once your brain chemistry is changed, it takes significant pain to get it back. And according to the book Power of Habit, it never goes away.

Then alcoholics have the need to make everyone else drink. It's a cycle.

I'm glad I was addicted to alcohol and weed, easier to break. But I still relapse.
