Alcohol Kills People

Alcohol is a disease that can ultimately kill you if left untreated. We can joke about it all we want, and yes, when you have not suffered the immense consequences of alcohol addiction, it can be funny, however when you watch a loved one slowly fade away because of this disease or you yourself slowly lose any understanding of who you are...

This is really the truth. Alcohol addiction is insidious and the true devastating effects might not become evident until it’s too late. There are many functional alcoholics in the world, but eventually their addiction catches up with them and their families.

In order for you to avoid the devastation that alcoholism can wreak on your life and the lives of your loved ones, you should get the treatment needed to help you kick your addiction and take back control of your life. It won’t be easy, but it will probably be one of the most important things you can do in your life.

Many people are oblivious to the many disadvantages that alcohol carries. An example of this is where the same person who only enjoys drinks socially can start to develop an intense resistance to the consumption of alcohol. In conventional cases the person who absorbs an amount of alcohol will have it immediately hit the bloodstream and it will then be transported to various points in the body. Delusional thinking and hallucinations will be a direct side effect of too much alcohol consumption. This is why, among other reasons, it is never recommended to drive while intoxicated.

Cat On Cocaine - A True Story

Here's as true story...

A cat was found in the eastern suburbs of Sydney, high on cocaine and benzodiazepines.

Double Bay clinic admitted an eight month old Himilayan cat with dialated pupils as well and a racing heart. The Cat was found locked up in a cupboard overnight, according to a Fairfax newspaper.
The cat was acting very strangely; pacing around and jumpy. Apparently inserting a thermometer into its rectum also made the cat anxious (I don't blame him, do you?).

After speaking to the owner's wife, the vet was informed that the cat might have licked one of the 'cocaine plates' served at a party the night before.
The owner had to go through counseling, after which he was able to take the cat home. No legal action was taken.

Moral of the story? Wash your cocaine plates after you're done with them... but seriously... if you're throwing cocaine parties, you're way too rich and need some help.
