Fallon, I more or less had the exact same mental debate with myself a couple years back. I had become so accustomed to not having to deal with the cold harshness of 'reality' that I was losing my grasp on my ego... my sense of being. I didn't know who I was anymore. It's a profoundly sad feeling to find yourself looking in the mirror at someone at not recognize who they are. I've been there.
I openly admit that I still have a few emotional problems to work through, but I'd have to say that I have made significant progress since I quit drinking and doing drugs. Escaping reality by drowning yourself in chemicals is ultimately pointless. All it does is waste your money, waste your time, and kill off braincells. (Yes, I actually *do* feel far less intelligent than what I used to

I re-read my response to your entry and I just wanted to make it clear that I wasn't trying to make it sound like I'm preaching to you, I just want to help you out because you're my friend and I really feel like I can help you. I am a very therapeutic person if given the chance. :]
