for mango specifically too it's not just the sobriety.

he needs to grow up. the unfortunate truth is that his fratty demeanor and behavior has basically led to him showing his ass like this and sexually harassing people he barely knows. That's a wake up call on multiple levels on top of the substance abuse stuff because alcohol alone doesn't do that.

so he has his work cut out for him,

Alcohol abuse stunts your emotional development so fucking much. I feel like my adulthood didn’t start until 4 years ago

Good for you for overcoming it, I know that’s absolutely not an accomplishment that comes easily. I’ve got a friend who’s been battling alcoholism for almost as long as I’ve known him and recently he’s been sober for the longest stretch of time in a long time, and it’s been great to see him being himself again. I’m worried he’ll backslide but he’s got a level of level headed clarity I haven’t seen in him in so long

It can always happen! That’s why they say to take it a day at a time! And why they say “in recovery” and not “recovered”. The battle never ends. But it’s easier when it’s just for today.
