Let me recap for you.
Loooooooong hours at work, no holidays, possible workaholic to avoid personal issues, alcoholic, drug addict (needs meth to get through each day), keeping medical issues hidden from multiple drs, seeks life advice from a bunch of jerkoff (myself included) muscle heads. Advice from board is that it all sounds great and since "everyone" is doing the same, you should fit right in, falling in with the philosophy that you should eat shit cos 5 trillion blowflies can't be wrong.
Well, you should do fine. #yolo
