The Human Obsession with Labels, our Identities, and How To Stop Drinking When You’re Not An “Alcoholic”

Fuck the norm and what people expect of you. Fuck trying to be what other people want you to be just to make them feel better.

Fuck alcohol for making you think something is wrong with YOU. When really you are perfect, and it is poison.

Fuck the people around you for not understanding that life is not, and never will be, so black and white!

  1. Love what you said here: “But I wanted to be in a new Universe. I used to look down at each drink as if it were a stepping stone that might lead me closer to where I longed to be.”

    Yes! That’s what it was mostly like for me, too.

    Also yes to ignoring unhelpful labels; labels are as labels do. 😎

    Also what Dwight said! 👏💛👌😍

    Labels can get you in trouble. We think that our labels define us. We think that it speaks who we are. No, out labels is just a title that places us in a class with a certain group of people. It’s nothing wrong with having a label or title in front of your name displaying who you are in society but the troubles comes in when the individual with the label don’t perform the task of what the label entitles itself. For example you can have the label mom or dad. If you don’t train your up in the way that shall go so when they get older they will not depart from it. It doesn’t matter what you are or want to be referenced as because you didn’t do the duties of the mom and dad. Titles and labels can get people in trouble because it’s more to a name then just being respected as that name but there is a certain job assignment attached to the title, label, name that few many people desire to have but few actually want to live up to the responsibility of it.
    Remember to who much is given much is required.
    Duces!!
