Imagine the stigma I had to go through when my friends would know I was consulting with a psychiatrist for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). More likely, they would only remember that I went to the psychiatrist. Not that I have PTSD.
How ridiculous it was back then when my pay check already had a little extra for small indulgence that when I thought of buying wine, I brought to the counter four Vodka Teasers (Peche, Fraise, Citron and Cassis) and one Vodka Cruiser (Guava). Vodka...
