I did something terrible Friday. I’m not proud of it. It’s embarrassing. And it left me terribly sick and nauseous for the next 24 hours.
I could say it was the peer pressure, I could make an excuse that I just wanted to fit in and be “cool.” But the simple fact of the matter is that I made the choice. I did it.

I ate a double down.
I want to link to the part of this that most accurately sums up how I felt about myself, but the whole thing is spot on. So read it.
And please, I beg of you, learn from my experience and shame and don’t recreate it.
