100%. I wouldn't be surprised if the sober year was a year of depression anyway - he has nothing, fucked up everything + elderly mother. As scary as his rotting body is, the scariest thing for me is the destruction of grey matter. Low IQ, slurred speech even if you're sober. Colloquially called wet-brained - but does he have some Korsakoff syndrome already?Before he started getting open leg sores.
We now know that the Beetus is outright reversible, even curable depending on youth and a number of other factors but with him spiraling out of control and just wanting to drink until he dies there is zero chance of being able to exert the necessary self control to have mastered his own body let alone his drinking problem. You can fix your pancreas but you cant fix late stage nerve damage.
