Drinking alcohol makes all your feelings and emotions more intense. I've barred myself from drinking unless i'm out with a lot of people who i know can and will watch me. I'd suggest most people struggling with SI strongly try and refrain from drinking. It has helped me. Drinking also lowers your inhibitions, so you are more likely to do something you normally wouldn't. Add that to the intenser emotions, it is very dangerous for SI'ers.

	~He accepts that ambiguity and compromise are a part of life, but he doesn’t necessarily like it. It’s not his way to dwell in gray areas, not to try and resolve complex situations. And yet, if he’s really honest with himself, this time he doesn’t care. He surrenders to what he wants, not what he must. ~
