[quote=Anonymous]I never got to the 'need alcohol every day' level of alcoholism, but did have a binge drinking addiction. I quit about a year ago. In general I was always pretty happy, but always felt like crap for a couple of days after a binge - not just physically, but I'd be really down on myself for my inability to control my drinking, etc. So it was a bit of an emotional roller coaster. Logically I knew that the alcohol was the cause of feeling bad, but drinking also made the bad feelings go away, at least temporarily. I had to quit completely to break the cycle. Now that I've quit, I'd say my day to day normal level of happiness is about the same, but I don't have those down days. So my average level of happiness has probably increased even though my happy days now aren't any happier than my old happy days, if that makes any sense. [/quote]
