People say that I’m drinking too much lately. Maybe blackouts aren’t normal to everyone else, but I don’t mind it. When I’m drunk I feel so free. I can laugh. They say alcohol is a depressant. It doesn’t make me depressed. It takes away my depression. I admit that I’m more impulsive when I’m drunk, but that’s okay. I can get myself out of any trouble I get involved with. I’m still in control. Maybe not when I’m passed out in the backseat of a friend’s car, but they watch out for me. I just prefer to be in an altered state of mind. Reality is so overrated.
