>Answer - No: You are an alcoholic, i.e. you have an addiction to alcohol

I wouldn't dump it all on her in one go, then. It's important to have someone you can talk to about things but if you just reciprocally vomit all your problems on her it'll be too much for her to process at once. If you've got a good friendship going (and despite what r9k says, it's okay to be friends with women) maybe find one aspect of your problems to talk about.
It's like that scene in Mad Men where Don quits drinking and just spills all his dirty laundry in the middle of a client meeting. You've got all this shit pent up, building pressure and you want to just blow the valve and let it all out. But that's a lot for other people to handle, it's better to slowly bleed the valve so there isn't a big, scary explosion for your friends to deal with.

The cashier knew, he just didn't care. Stores are insured against losses and employees are discouraged from confronting shoplifters because if they get hurt in altercation it goes on the store's worker comp insurance. Unless a store has hired dedicated security they would rather employees watch the crime go down and report it to the police later than get get shanked by a hobo trying to stop it and have to file a claim.

Since you're new to this:

Alcohol withdrawals cause:
1. Insomnia
2. Strong feeling of depression/boredom due to lack of extra dopamine from alcohol
3. Anxiety. Most importantly manifests as "I don't think I'll be able to stop drinking"

Get over the withdrawals, however long thehy last, and then life is back to normal and you can sleep, be happy, and be confident again.

I barely ever smoke weed anymore but used to heavily. I remember the worst feeling ever was after you scrape out all the dregs from every chop bowl to get a measly half-bong, then smoking it and knowing before you've even pulled all the smoke out of the chamber that it won't satisfy the bong thirst.

>> No.10573582

i have smoked out of a bong only twice in my life and both times it was incredibly dissatisfying and awkward. how do people do that shit? is it only an american thing?

i have a shisha pipe i use for loose tobacco and the hose is fucked so I have to hold it like a bong and use a piece of rigid tubing instead of the hose, but it works and is ergonomic. but why do americans use bongs? why are americans obsessed with building and using things in the upside-down or otherwise in the wrong order?

Here in Australia, most people who smoke weed regularly almost exclusively smoke bongs. We do it differently to Americans though. We chop our weed up really finely, and most people mix with tobacco. Then you pack the biggest bong you can manage and smoke the whole thing in one rip including the ghost. Smoking bongs this way gets you stoned off ya titties.

They go crazy when stocktake comes around because we are both alcoholics and cost them an easy $2k per quarter.
We keep it clean the 2 weeks coming upto stocktake and be sure no video they have on file busts us, but usually I go there late at night when it's just him and another theif. We always make the transactions look legit on camera, but he doesn't put the sale through.

Feeling a weird anhedonia despite having access to alcohol. I don't feel "excited" to drink, or do anything, for that matter. I don't get the euphoric rush after downing a couple drinks and starting to feel it. I'm also not really depressed either, though.

It's probably a degree of depression.
It doesn't only manifest in being "sad".
The most common factors of mine were being quick to anger once the first thing irritated me about someone else's thought process or what I perceived it to be, the general despairing thing, and wanting to sleep all the time.
I caved and took an antidepressant for 4 years and the only thing it changed was making me unable to sleep very long at all. It stopped my panic attacks as well, but I finally stopped taking it after talking to my new doctor and I'm basically the same as I was except I drink slightly less and am able to sleep more. And with without egregious drinking comes less anger. Extremely touchy and anti-social when I get up in the morning though after drinking. It's just not that good.

>> No.10577610

Also I forgot to detail that I don't have panic attacks anymore even after I stopped taking that pill for 4 years, which is a positive outcome I didn't expect to happen.

Does anyone cycle through wanting to kill yourself and wanting to get it together almost every 20 minutes?

I was in a suicidal period for about 3 months, even tried to hang myself in a hotel once. I don't know why but I didn't have enough weight to do it, even when I pressed down hard with my upper body (I was kneeling). Maybe the rope was too thick?

Anyway now I'm cycling very rapidly between wanting to die, thinking "why should I go through all this work of living for no reason" and wanting to get it together, thinking "I can do this, I know how to be healthy - stop drinking, eat better, go to the gym, start work, I have a plan."

I don't think Jack Daniel's is especially bad for what it is, although it used to taste a bit better. It's most people's introduction to American whiskeys and, dare I say it, it's a pretty good representative of the style. But there are many similar whiskeys at the same price point that are of much higher quality.

Interesting. I find Buffalo Trace to be one of the smoothest bourbons around (I won't say bland, but it's just as accessible as Jack imo, without being sickly sweet and fruity), whereas I've found Maker's to have a very prominent, almost glue-like, alcoholic smell and taste that I don't like a lot.
>I was amazed hearing from people overseas whose main experience with bourbon is pre-mixed cocktail in a can things. I had no idea until recently that this shit even existed or was popular.
I'm in Europe, I see these things in every supermarket (we also have pre-mixed scotch and coke, by the way) but I've never seen anyone actually buy or drink it. Bourbon was being heavily promoted a couple of summers ago (before the gin and tonic craze), so these days most liquor stores carry a pretty decent selection.

My stomach is fucked up I won't lie. In an hour or two I'll be dry heaving to the gods.
I can't buy more for 3 1/2 hours but by that stage I know I won't be able to l eave the house.
Thanks anon. I thought it was my liver. I know my liver is totally fucked up. I wonder why I don't get yellow eyes and skin yet but it's still hanging on.
I want to vomit right now. Chat later.

I haven't slept yet but I feel a lot better. Still tired and anxious but I don't feel like I'm going to die in my sleep. Hopefully I can sleep tonight and tomorrow will be a much brighter day. Good luck to you also.

Man we are all fucked in this thread. I feel sad reading this shit, but my life is just like yours.

drank three pints last night. i was working on the basis that it's nowhere near enough to get me drunk or cause withdrawals/hangover, so if i can always just stick to 3 max, i'd be fine. woke at 4am with explosive diarrhoea and haven't slept since because constant shitting. every molecule of this shit is poison.

I'm on diarrhoea pills at the moment. Beer really doesn't help. White wine seems to be the worst for the runs. I think you're supposed to eat some bread or crackers or something dry, but I dunno if that helps, I just take pills so I don't shit myself.

>bread or crackers
wheat gives me terrible heartburn and makes diarrhoea a million times worse. i just need to not drink at all. that's now 4 times in something like 6 weeks that i've tried to drink and its been a disaster. last 3 times i just threw up immediately then shook all night. last night my ass exploded. desu it's a blessing, it's keeping me off booze

I come here every time I mess up and start drinking again.
I'm currently on a bender, and I don't know why.
I feel severely depressed but I don't know if that's coming from the alcohol or why I started drinking the alcohol.

I have really bad nausea and all foods are off putting. Is it possible it's early stages of liver failure? It happens even when I have several "taper" nights in a row and don't drink heavily.
