Most of us who engage in heavy alcohol use do so to self-medicate. And we self-medicate because we don’t know how to feel, process, and sit with our uncomfortable emotions. There are many ways to avoid uncomfortable feelings; heavy alcohol use is just one way (among many) to numb out, avoid, or escape. A lot of us who have abused alcohol, myself included, do so to regulate our emotions, or we think we are regulating our emotions through self-medication.

Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

To assume that Arthur Goldwag’s The Politics of Fear: The Peculiar Persistence of American Paranoia is a simple review of already well-trod contemporary politics would be a serious mistake. The short (284-page) work offers thoughtful and important insights on a country he describes as “marinated in conspiracy theory.” (4) Goldwag takes his reader on a journey that is vast in its historical depth, and sometimes breathtakingly disturbing.
