I'm incredibly sensitive to stress. I sort of, I absorb a hell of a lot from my external environment. Definitely one of the major reasons I drank was to prevent myself from feeling all of the impact of all of this external stimulus, you know, even though it wasn't preventing the external stimulus from affecting me, which is then manifested in terrible hangovers.
