My Father was an alcoholic the whole time I knew him. He died aged 67 from Cirrhosis of the liver.
My oldest brother was an alcoholic and obtained brain damage through excessive alcohol and died age 30.
I started drinking at age 12 and was an alcoholic by age 16.
Having my own income from age 15 saw me in the pub everyday after work until closing time.
Extreme alcoholism saw me with Cirrhosis at age 32 though it still took me 15 years to stop drinking

@Gusman Wow. And did you or anyone in the family get abused by them?

@jlsdjfhasdljfhasdfa I was abused by my Father for years when my Mother left.
That is why I started drinking at 12. To get myself into my own little cocoon and block out all the crap that was happening.
I slept in my Fathers bed for 5 years after Mom left so I was able to steal money from his wallet that he kept under the pillow.
