re: Second student found dead in a dorm at Loyola (NO)

When I was in rehab, a dude got rushed to the hospital and died from alcohol withdrawals. He used to drink a case of beer every night after work, and that was it. He was like 31, and had a young daughter, good looking wife, nice job, and had just built a house. I was in detox with him for like a week before that happened. It was a wake up call to cut back on my frequency of partying.

No heroin or oxy addicts went to the hospital while I was there. They for sure felt worse detoxing, but I don't think they had as much of a chance of dying as the alcoholics


Eta: Each drug had a certain feeling that people like. Hell, it's hard for me to turn down booger sugar when someone offers it. Still think about it, and think about it every time I look at my Adderall bottles, but I don't do it anymore. Some people like to speed, some people like to slow down.
