I bought a fifth of gin last night after work and drank a lot of it, felt like shit today for the most part. Then finished it today after work and took a lie down (and honestly felt a bit better).

But this is really bad, right? I did the math and a 750ml is 17ish drinks. But I did drink from like 5-11pm last night so it's not like it was all at once. And I didn't finish it last night. So I averaged about 2 drinks/hr last night and probably had 5 today and I did eat dinner.

Regardless it's bad, I almost went and bought some wine tonight but decided against it and am chugging water.

I'm not saying i'm a legit alcoholic but I'm really disturbed by my actions and by the fact that I wanted to buy more tonight even though I'm 100% dehydrated still.

Any advice on how to resist this?

Well today was evidence of that working I guess.

I had some bad shits today but I'm drinking water with a probiotic tea bag in it right now which will probably have me feeling better tomorrow.

Honestly I probably have some shit to sort out, I'm just "bored" when I'm sober. I usually try to smoke weed after getting off work but I wanted to stop for a week or two so of course that means I've been drinking a lot more. It's a bad cycle and I probably should quit both for a long time (if not permanently) but at least when I'm smoking weed I feel 10x healthier, sleep well, wake up early and am in a generally better mood and mental place.

This is what therapists might call "falling into complacency". By this, they mean that although you are sober, you stilll aren't truly "living". What they mean by "living", I still have no idea. It's like they think former addicts or alcoholics can just be excited or enthusiastic about life again with the snap of a finger. The truth is, after a true bout of alcoholism or addiction, it may take years to mentally recover. Physically, it might take weeks or months, but the mental part is where it gets fucked. Whether you are doing a depressant or a stimulant, when you stop, it all leads to depression without the drug. You have a lot of work to do, anon. Perhaps for the rest of your life. For any alcoholic or addict there willl always be that devilish voice in the back of their head that urges them to just take a drink or a hit or a shot. It's the nature of giving in to substances and the price you have to pay for the days you have robbed from other people of their love for you. Time to give them their love back by giving love to yourself.

If you're reading this Shmirnofbro, you know the best solution is to stop again. It'll take a dozen rehabs if needed, but it'll eventually work. And this time, when you fall of the wagon, throw the booze in the drain and hop back on ASAP. One night of drinking is not an excuse to start again.

I'd say I'm an functional alcoholic. Not a destructive, drunk driving rock bottom alchie.

I just really really enjoy being sauced up, the sensation of feeling loose, happy and relaxed. Never to the point of nausea and blackouts. 3-4 glasses of wine a night and I'm solid.

And on the weekends it's a whole day affair. But I'm not stupid. I never drink and drive, always hydrate between drinks and take my B complex vitamins.

But it does worry me sometimes. My mother drank herself to death and it sure as hell wasn't with wine. When they found her corpse, they also found DOZENS empty Evan Williams, littered through out her home.

She started out just drinking wine after work. Shortly after my younger brother passed she began drinking heavily. She'd go through 2-3 bottles of wine a DAY, even while she was working. Finally when her mother passed, she went straight for vodka, bourbon, whiskey, anything she could get her hands on.

It destroyed her life. She quit her prestigious career, went on Social Security and just stayed home all day, sipping the sauce and puking into a bucket.

I like to think I know when to say no but it's ever present in my mind that some day I'll end up just like her.

I'm glad your dad is recovering. There's truth to what he said. Functioning alchies are some of the best liars around. Rationalization, excuses, anything to keep the buzz going and the bullshit flowing because hey, we have jobs and stuff...

Sometimes I think I'd be better off just giving up the sauce but then the thoughts of never being drunk or loose again keep me imprisoned. Thank god it's just wine (never cared for beer and I can't stand hard liquor/spirits/mixed drinks) Just give me my Merlot and I'm content. And that's another excuse I've concocted: it's just wine everybody, full of antioxidants and low on calories!

It really hit me when a former colleague approached me shortly after mom died. They were both certified nurse midwifes, each with thousands of healthy births to their name. Best of the best, an obstetrician's best friend and savior to expecting mothers everywhere. The pay was good, the prestige eh not so much. "It's a labor of love" my mom always told me.

But I was told my mother was sneaking booze between deliveries. She'd deliver one baby drink an entire flask of booze and carry on. She did this for 20+ until she finally said fuck it and made drinking her career. I was too young to know, I figured then she was just tired.

Is it my brain lying to myself when I think "oh, it's after work, and if I want to enjoy this time of day between having to wage slave and sleeping, I guess I should drink"

Last night I didn't drink and I was just so...bored. I didn't even feel like putting on netflix and I got into my bed at around 11:30 and sat in bed for an hour reading /ck/ and then fell asleep. But on Sunday afternoon I was drinking all afternoon then watched some archer and I felt like I was having more fun and was motivated to cook dinner.

This all sounds insane and I'd be embarrassed to write it out anywhere else but does anyone else feel this? Like they do more things and have more fun doing things when they're drinking?

I kind of want to buy a bottle of wine but my stomach still kind of hurts from drinking a bunch monday night. And I'm probably going to drink tomorrow and friday in some capacity (plans with friends).

Agree with this guy, you get a literal physical dependence on it. If you go without, depending on how far you've gone, you lose normalcy and can have everything from hangovers to seizures.

Weird thing with me, I've never had a hangover, I mean, I haven't felt well after drinking but I've never had these meme hangovers where people have epic headaches and chug coffee and eat fatty food. Maybe they're just being over dramatic.

Yeah I was a clerk at at law firm, had all sorts of errands to do when I wasn't trapped in the office. Lots of drinking.

Considering the degeneracy that went on there what I did wasn't so bad. Reminds me of one time, I'm about 20m out from the office, it's like 440, they ask me to file this motion which if it's not the file is lost, and the damn place is a 1.5 hour drive away. So I moseyed my way through traffic, got the motion, then drove like a fucking maniac, on country roads passing 4-5 people at once. I had to be there at 430, burst into the clerks office at 429, they're gone, but dog bless the clerk who took the motion. Also why the fuck isn't this shit electronic.

I can confirm that.

When I was young there were a couple times I got seriously blackout drunk and I woke up the next morning (early!) with no symptoms whatsoever.

If I do the same thing now (mid 30's) I have a seriously bad day the next day.

I can also confirm that what you drink has a huge impact as well. If you drink really cheap sugary shit like bumwine, 4loko, etc, expect a bad hangover. Ditto for bottom-shelf liquor. But if you drink better stuff there is much less of a problem. Hydration helps a lot too. Make sure you get plenty of water.

Continue drinking, everything is going to be OK, you're going to be able to stop as easily after decades of abuse as now, no need to worry about liver or brain damage or being unable to walk down a street with any establishment or store selling alcohol without relapsing to pretty much literally hell or even being able to feel joy or pleasure at all.
