MODERATORS
Alcohol withdrawal can kill you. That alone makes it more dangerous. Serious addiction to alcohol (physical dependence, 20+ units a day every day, no longer eating properly) is a completely different beast to moderate consumption. It is very, very hard to quit.

Would you like me to tell you in detail how my mother died from alcohol?
Ok ok it's not a competition. My condolences.
I think he acknowledged that when he called alcohol "a crazy bad substance".
To me it sounds like he's downplaying the results of alcohol addiction and saying that nicotine addiction is much worse. And that's simply not the case. Abusing nicotine can lead to cancer and other illness. Abusing alcohol will inevitably lead to liver failure.
I'm not and alcohol can straight up kill people
For me the tingling sensation stopped eventually, so there is hope.
