You take solace and comfort in wine, beer and any other alcohol you can get your hands on. Until recently you spent most of your days in a pub, inn or simply on the street drinking yourself into a stupor. Why you drink is not something you like to think about, probably because it is too painful. Being the town drunk does have its advantages though, for one people often leave you alone and barely even notice you're there. When they do notice you you can often play to their sympathies and get them to spare a coin or just one more drink.
