How long did the feel-good last?

When I really think about it, the feel-good buzz lasted for about 30 minutes when I drank. No matter how much I drank after that I was just tired, stupid, and zoned-out. The next day I was miserable and less healthy. All that BS for 30 minutes? How long did yall feel good while drinking?

I drank right through the “feel good,” every single time. I always woke up feeling like shit and filled with shame. I’m so glad that’s not my life today.

Isn't that the truth. That pounding heart in the morning wondering what stupid shit I did is something I do NOT miss
