Alcohol will kill you!! It eats everything from your personality to your pancreas!! It totally destroys your liver, but your liver can rejuvinate 1 time, but you have to quit drinking! Go to your doctor, and tell him that you are having a hard time quitting, and I am sure he will prescribe something to make you feel more comfortable!! Good luck to you!!! It’s a tough one, but I am sure you can do it, if you have made up your mind!!
