If you give yourself some breathing time though, it does seem to go away or at least decrease significantly in effect.. you just really have to shove away from the table for awhile. I mean, if your dip you head in a vat of acid and sprinkle random white powders on EVERY surface, from your wheaties to your bathroom counter for a few years running, then it's possible that the damage is irreparable- so party on cause you done did it, ain't no comin back now! But if that's not you, take a vaca for a couple weeks, hang out with your mom, read some books, take random little kids to movies, get 8 hours of sleep, knit... or even just bar hop but just have a beer or two earlier in the night and watch people get sloshed, it's pretty fucking funny. The hard part is just saying no to going OUT out, especially when you feel like you're missing out and your friends can't imagine NOT going, but you really will feel better if you Ultimate Challenge yourself and just do it for a few weeks, plus you'll save some cash to blow on your celebration when you go back out to do it again.
