Yes, they did. Especially your story. You should be proud of yourself man, really. But like I said in my post, I had some 6 years of heavy drinking and bad diet. I'm taking my supplements, trying to exercise and not drinking for a month now, and things are getting better already.

I'm 24 years old, so in a way I'm blessed I'm doing this now.

I just wonder if I will recover enough to regain my full intellectual potential. And I wonder if drinking once in a while ( a heavy night out every 2-3 weeks) will harm me?

I saw drinking as something that calmed me and made me loosen up.. I don't necessarily crave for it, but I guess I will miss the going out and go wild part from time to time. Not sure I need to give it up entirely or just moderate my use..
