The problem is addictions. Alcohol is just one of them, altough it is one of the more serious ones but they all come down to the same dynamics. It's about fear. At it's root fear has 3 causes:
- The fear of death
- The fear of being crazy(feeling alone in the universe)
- The fear of orgasm(this is less obvious and more difficult to explain)
There is one more fear which is even more difficult to talk about as it really is basic and far reaching and affects myself now as i write so i will let that be... for the reason of fear
Addictions are ways to shy away from facign these fears...
