I was sober except for the part where I maybe wasn't except in a legal sense and then on top of that suffered a bunch of other ailments that made me drive into a pond, over a curb and some other shit

On good will I hand it to this person that this sounds american-with-no-alternatives as fuck and they didn't frame it as a sort of passive "I got into an accident" but like still

I really don’t miss drinking. I remember having to spend two days sobering up and going through hell just to dry myself out to drive so I could get more booze

let’s just say I’m doubting the narrative here, as a person with some experience

You would wait to sober up? You're a better alcoholic than me. I thank my higher power every day that when my alcoholism got REALLY bad, I didn't have a car anymore. Me driving drunk so often was probably the worst thing I did in my addiction. At least at that point, it was just beer, but then again that's an addict excuse. After I couldn't drive anymore, I switched to vodka because it's much cheaper and I knew I could drink as much as I wanted without putting other people in danger.

Thankful to be sober and not driving anymore.
