He's fine to be around
He's just a mess. He's not the angry type, this situation started as teenage social dutch courage and is now just an emotional prop.

Without drink he wouldn't know what to do with himself. I know the feeling, to be honest.

wasn't suggesting he's the angry type, i got the feeling from what you said that he's not like that.
but alcoholics are damaging to be around. it's a war of attrition.
i couldn't claim to really know the situation, it's further blurred by him being yer bro.
i guess it's easier to not be around to see the decline and fall, as many choose to do.
i'm rambling cos i'm stoned now.
over and out.
