Autism and alcohol — only my experience — your mileage may vary!

Before Prozac was invented, I drank all the time, heavily, everyday. Then one day I woke up and realized something is very wrong. But what was wrong was: for the first time in my life, nothing was wrong. It was a shocking, unfamiliar feeling. I didn't feel like there was something terrible and it was my job to figure out what it was.

The thing is, not only did I stop drinking immediately, but I didn't notice that I'd stopped drinking for three days. I didn't even notice that I had stopped drinking! Now it's weird to think that I ever drank alcohol at all. It's like drinking gasoline.

Do NOT borrow some from somebody else to try because it definitely won't work! You have to take it for a whole month and you have to have a legitimate supply from a doctor. But I can and am telling you that If you drink alcohol not because it helps but because it numbs the constant horror, then you should see someone who's capable of prescribing it if he agrees with me that it might help you immensely.
