Method Could I die from alcohol within a few years?

I drank heavily some months a while ago, and my liver values were already off the charts. Does this mean if I continued, I would be so weak that it would take only few years to destroy my liver and die?

That's probably what it would take as long as you kept of heavy drinking on a daily basis. It's one excruciatingly painful way to die though. It's not like you just keel over and die. Lots and lots of pain to get to the sweet release of death. I know. I saw my cousin and sister both die from liver failure. One drank herself to death (2 years) and the other had liver cancer. Both extreme pain that drugs barely helped. It's a hard way to go I think.

Yeah, it's not what I intend, but fear that it will be how I end up. So I need to get more help from psychiatrists or ctb before I fall back to drinking or other drugs or some other slow-destructive behavior.

You'd have to drink all day, every day, and the strong stuff.

My friend drank heavily when he was in China to teach Eng. He got there just before lockdown, he had nothing to do but drink all day, every day.(he drank brandy) His liver started failing, and he was very sick, he came back to SA for treatment and I was shocked at how yellow he was. He went back to China after a couple of months of being here, but started drinking again. Now he's dead. It was a very unpleasant death from what I've been told. He said how terrible he felt when he was here. Tired, no appetite, feeling sick all the time.

You'll go through the pits of hell if you try this. Alcohol addiction is horrendous. And you'd have to be drinking an awful lot for this to work anytime soon. More likely you'll end up physically and mentally addicted. Been there, done that.
