Congratulations ... glad you learned early in life then I :)

For me having allergies turn into allergic asthma because where I moved to just literally beat my body into submission (let's say Mother Nature believes in no safe words ... ever)

Now when I have something, it is for taste, and sadly the decades of drink made my tolerance just "amazing" (enter in a high pitched voice).

Look at it this way ... your life went from loud and living the moment publically to turning into something deep, dark and deliciously deep soul wise ...

enjoy and good luck!
