Post Body

Personally, when I have plateaued and I continue to chase that high; then it becomes abundantly clear I’m tip-toeing with abuse. I do my best to recognize the signs of abuse, as I am an completely functional alcoholic as well. While I know I have abused alcohol, I picked up my nitrous journey after a decade. It’s becoming frequent, almost every third day for the past 3 weeks. Of course there’s the health concern with frequency of use; along with mixing with alcohol. Overall I’m not sure if I’m really “overdoing” it at this point, or due to my past addictive behavior to go ahead into recovery? Or to just stop completely.
