Many, many people have some counterproductive habits that don’t rise to the level of a disorder, and this includes drinking. Let me give you an example: one DUI doesn’t automatically make one an alcoholic, but a second DUI probably does. That first DUI should be a wake up call that one does indeed have a problem, however.

On the fucking up spectrum, DUIs are somewhere on the extreme side. One needn’t go to that extreme to realize that drinking is counter productive. It seems to me that Andy realized this and, most importantly, took action. As a result, his quality of life improved greatly.

Thanks to Andy sharing his experience, I’m taking a hard look at some of my counterproductive behavior, my bad habits. I waste a shitload of time playing computer games. Just for today, I’m not going to play. I’m not vowing to never play again. I’m deciding not to play today.
