How does one detect a redditor alcohol aficionado via text only?

Oh, you'll know.

I drink alcohol to get drunk

Coke doesn't do anything and it's fucking horrible for you, doesn't even taste good either

Back to the bottle for me. I just came to terms with the fact that I am not who my crush wants. She wants her best friend, and I can see that in how she talks about him. She tried to spare me from the jealousy and heartbreak, but in the end it was kinder of her to let me know. Still, the month or so that we were together was the happiest month of my life. My depression disappeared entirely, I legitimately looked forward to waking up, and I even stopped drinking. Now I am right back where I started, with my lips alternating between the throat of a vodka bottle and the barrel of a loaded gun.

they seized my fucking rifle

>>9695165
A little bit of carbs is needed to process the alcohol or you end up with asian flush symptoms.

>>9695172
>end up with asian flush symptoms
what's wrong with that exactly?

>>9695166
How old are you, 20? Dont ever let a woman do that to you. Falling in love with them is a young man's mistake.

>>9695173
red face, hot flashes, hard to breathe, sweaty

>>9695169

Why the fuck would you walk around drunk with a BB gun in the first place? Especially in yurop with all Muslim hijinks.

>>9695180
that's how you react if you don't drink coke with alcohol?


maybe it's cause you're fat from all that coke

>>9695165
Drink Coke Zero or something retard. If you're going to be drinking alcohol to get drunk it's not going to impede that and also means you can buy cheaper stuff and down more of it over the same period. If you're downing spirits 24/7 without some sugar to break up the alcohol you'll not only fuck yourself even harder, you'll find it tough to get them down as early as the second day.

>>9695183
i SIP but i DONT GRIP because I HAVE NO GRIP ON LIFE ANYMORE

>>9695187
not what i said, at all. i didnt say you had to drink coke with alcohol, merely pointing out that carbs arent something to avoid while imbibing alcohol. most of the sugar in the coke goes to breaking down the ethanol.

>>9695165
>Help me drink booze 24/7
>Eww no Coke, that's bad for you
What the fuck?

>>9695198
see:>>9695165

>>9695187
Coke Zero has no calories. It's obviously not a health food due to whatever the fuck else goes into it but it's not going to make you fat as a mixer.

>>9695202
>respond to post
>links me back to same post

Yeah okay

>>9695175
23, yeah. I knew falling in love was going to hurt me in the long run, but I underestimated the effect it had on me while things were good. I always thought I'd be stuck with my depression, but for it to dissipate so quickly was intoxicating and it amplified the inevitable heartbreak when I lost the feeling.

>>9695208
cause you obviously need to read it again

>>9695209
sure, i can understand what youre saying. learn your lesson and move on though.

>>9695183
alcohol

>>9695209

Get back at her and fuck one of her friends. It always helps me get over women to know that they hate me.

>>9695213
You need to get your fucking logic checked. You want to drink booze 24/7, which is remarkably unhealthy, yet you're worried about Coke. You sound like a fucking retard.

>>9695218
I know, and I will. It isn't like I actively seek out relationships anywaye. Was just a rare thing.

>>9695222
Her friends are an odd mix between /r9k/ and /d/. That's just dangerous.

>>9695226
>you do something unhealthy so you're not allowed to be concerned about your health

I drink booze all day everyday because I have an addiction to alcohol and I enjoy the effects of it.

I don't wake up and eat a 20 piece bucket of KFC every morning, but apparently I should?

Can someone explain to me exactly how this thread is /ck/ related? All the posts are from people wallowing in self hatred and regret, with almost no posts about actual alcohol and drinks, and how they taste.

>>9695255
it's barely /ck/ related

seems the mods just tolerate it/don't care

>>9695255
Nah, can't be bothered. Plenty of other threads for you though.

>>9695255
Nobody owes you an explanation, or cares what you want.

>>9695255

>he drinks alcohol for the taste

Go back to Plebbit you fucking queer.

>>9695265
But I never even stated what I want. What I want is for things to be on-topic and for the shitposters to go back to their containment boards.

>>9695268

Maybe one day you'll finally become a janitor and someone will actually give a fuck what you want for once in your miserable life.

>>9695272

I can't fucking sleep.

I'm trying to stay sober about 12 more hours so i can drive to see my mom for the first time in months, Despite living 17 miles apart.

Been trying since 11pm, Now 5am and I've yet to get 1 wink of sleep.

You need to get tired or tiredish. Exercise is key. Benadryl helps you fall asleep. On days where im still reeling from a bender I like to walk a few miles or bike a few miles. Anything to help get you tired.

>>9695316
They're right though. This is better suited to /r9k/ than /ck/.

>>9695332
It's part of the board culture. Cut it off and it spills everywhere.
What's with all the resistance in this thread? Is it cause it insults all the redditors that have come to /ck/ and they feel offended?

>>9695336
They enter the thread expecting discussion about the hip new liquors and IPAs and instead get bitter drunks and alcoholics trying to get sober. So they complain and try to get what THEY wanted.

>>9695336
>resistance
from alcoholics
hmmm....

anyone go to large protests or community gatherings with fight juice? i like being around people and outside

>>9695339
You're that same faggot that was bitching about drinking coke.

plus you can add a bit of lime or strong cordial even

Thinking of getting a flask but it would be a step toward admitting I have a problem. I'd go for a water bottle and vodka, but I prefer the novelty of a flask. It isn't illegal to be drunk in public here, so it isn't like it matters in that regard.

where from?

>>9695426
Vermont. Public intoxication was decriminalized in 1978. Burlington has its own policies and often abuses the whole "for your protection" and "disturbance" thing, but it's Burlington. No one respects Burlington.

>>9695440
I'm always drunk in public and it's illegal here, I'm not blatant with the drinking though

Usually I'll use a waterbottle, something to conceal the liquid or drink in a public bathroom

>>9695453
Illegal here too. Coppers don’t give a shit. Alchies are absolutely everywhere in the uk

I want my brain to stop developing so that I can drink more

>>9695740

>>9695948
Just a normal weekend in any town in the uk.
Not exaggerating either, ask any Brit.

>>9695946

I bringe drank from 17-21 and I'm fine

Love my new pukepisspot apparatus. I’ve further upgraded. The 2x3L jugs were filling too quickly, so I’ve now acquired a 33L bucket into which I can empty those. Toying with the idea of installing a water pump so it’s automatically emptied out of a window, or using an old chest freezer to store 33L lumps of assorted alchie effluvia for disposal when convenient. Kinda tempted to drag them outside at night, and build a piss igloo from the frozen bricks... because why not. The local homeless bunch will love it

Get over her or at least don't be her friend/shoulder to cry on. Don't ever text her, if she texts you either ignore her or give very short vague responses. Be emotionally detached like this works on girls that try to friend zone you, then you finally hit it one more time and ignore them for real. Fuck roasties bro and GL.with your booze problem.

Oh wow, this heartburn is pretty damn sincere. I just curled over in pain because I swallowed some raisins. Legit felt like red hot blades flowing into me. Awesome! Fuck trying to eat like, ever again.

I get really bad acid reflux and its brutal, I can actually hear the acid bubbling in my esophagus

after binging on vodka for 4-5 days and saying fuck drinking is really hard for like the first week because my sleep gets totally fucked, on top of withdrawals and lack of sleep. learned exercise is key to getting back on track.
i get super anxious and little things spook me.

>>9696012
wow, twice a week?
youre hardcore bro

>>9695130
Just found this thread. I'm 30, shitty dead-end part-time job, I drink 1 to 2 packs of strong beer a day on average. Most of my days became unproductive and shitty. I try to fight the craving especially when I'm at work, but I'm not ashamed anymore to order alcohol on every lunch. The rest of the time I live at home, lost in my procrastination. I've been stucked in this mess for almost 6 months now.

>>9696598
>>9696684
drink a lot of milk or eat yogurt. It neutralizes the acid and helps with the heartburn.

I went along to a few parties but it was all high school tier drinking games, talking about sports, and trying to get laid. They went to the nightclubs really early and I fucking hate clubs. Too loud, queues massive, can't talk to anyone, I can't dance for shit, and drinks were really expensive.

I prefer to stay at home and stick a film on and slowly get smashed

>>9696815
if the booze is getting you through college then so be it, but when the time comes to transition to a career, you should visit a doctors office and talk with them about various alcoholism meds. i currently take naltrexone for cravings and it works very well.

>the answers you're looking for are probably not in this thread

Probably not, but I came here to feel less lonely and your replies gave me that. I wasn't a heavy drinker before, alcohol invited itself slowly into my life to ease the anxiety. The worst is getting up in the morning, wait a bit, generally until noon, and be given the thought that you won't be able to do shit if you don't have a drink before. You end up drinking and doing shit, regretting, self-shaming and the next day you're back into the loop. Anyway I wish I was still at 750ml per day, be brave anon, you're far from irredeemable.

Going through ferocious vodka WD, and cannot keep a single shot down for long enough that it’ll take effect, lol. Have drunk 350ml and managed to keep maybe one capful down. Having seizures and throwing up while fucking unconscious. Shaking is absolutely insane, like, limbs almost feel like they’re going spontaneously to start flying around. Eyes and nose streaming, entire intestine on fire, terrible fever and I’m bleeding. lol.
Hospital will not have me because I keep relapsing.
Fucking rodeo, motherfuckers. This shit is white-knuckle surreal, I feel like any moment now I’m going to uncontrollably begin screaming and run into the woods to... somehow escape.
Gents this is do intense. Oh my god. It’s so hard to explain this feel, but yo EVERYTHING is somehow.. PAINFULLY vivid. Everything is a threat, and all of my worst imaginable fears feel real. I’m not certain I’m going to cope all night. I’m very very unheard scared.
So.
There we go.

>>9697369

>>9697010
Yeah I'm in that same loop, wake up puking bile and snot, can't muster to do much work during the morning, start drinking at break, drink more a lunch, come back to work then don't give two shits to work and end up getting hardly anything done. Thankfully I work an office job n it appears my other team members are worse than me or its hard to be fired here doing a mediocre job.

This chat is usually welcoming and comfy so post whenever you feel. I'm not here everyday but here when I need it.

>>9697369
Where is the bleeding coming from?
This is important.

>>9697448
I thought I just got allergic to the cats but... Yeah, black puke every morning. Well, black puke after I finally sleep after 4 hours. And uncontrollable sinuses. This is the booze?

Oh yeah, someone was asking about grog way back, it's O.P. Dark rum. 53% minimum, so you guys in Burgerstan would say 106 proof. I think.

>>9697369
If the bleeding is Anal you gotta get to hospital quick. That's a runaway ulcer in your stomach.

>>9697462
I’m shitting and puking pure rd blood. No joke,I haven’t eaten for days, just lots of blood keeps building up apparently. Face is really scarily white/flushed looking and it’s taking me fucking forever to reply, my eyes are streaming so much that it’s hard to see

I’ve had an idea. Halfway through this post it has occurred to me that I can squirt vodka up my asshole. Brb

If you're puking blood it's most likely either esophageal varices or a stomach ulcer. You need to speak to a doctor, preferably today.
Dying of enlarged veins in your esophagus bursting is no picnic, anon.

Shit. Saw cl, my bad. Ok, I should be good, he's in Duff McKagen territory.

>>9697732
You have to taper with alcohol or benzodiazepines.
I don't think naltrexone helps with withdrawals, it's for cravings once you're on the wagon.
See a doc for an outpatient rehab/benzo prescription.

>>9697752
A bottle a day is still a lot, even if some rock-star or Mesopotamian-cave-painting-board-star drink more.

>>9697750
congrats lad

how long on the wagon?

>>9697709
You aren’t mistaken.
I’m sorry all, for that unpleasant episode. I just couldn’t get alcohol into me and I could tell that delirium was looming, threatening, imminent. FUCK DT’s, I think I might rather die than go through it again.
I feel back in control now. In fact I’ve managed to keep the better part of a pint down, and I feel pretty good.
Panic over. Brb sleeping for aeons. Ily al/ck/.

>>9697775
It's kind of hard to say. Once I realized it was a problem I went nearly cold turkey. I had a few slip ups, but every time I did I hated it. Like it just would make me feel dirty when I was sitting there drunk. It's probably been about a year since I've been drunk drunk.

I still have a drink now and again though. I'll have a beer after work, wine for a fancy meal, a margarita with a meal at a mexican place because goddamn I love sour. It's rare though. A six pack of beer will last me a month. Any time I do have a drink I never MUST HAVE MORE. I have my one beer and I'm happy.

God, it's so nice to have solid shits like a normal healthy human bean.

Don't expect it to be completely smooth sailing though, getting off booze is never easy, not even with a slow beer taper.

>>9697909
Love to, but allergic to wheat. Explains why the first one would always shoot out the mouth 5 minutes after drinking it.

Honestly, Thank you. There are people more deserving that need more help, but the fact that you offered your help in terms of your own journey... Man that shit just makes me feel like we can get through this together. On 4chan, of all the fucking places! In all seriousness, thank you. I'd buy you one... But it'd probably be better buying you the meal, because I'd mess up the drinks!

>>9697750

Explain, as if I'm drunk, how much 1500ml exactly is. I down a half a handle of 35% rum every day. Who's in deeper, me or him?

>>9698320
You just drink everyday morning to evening, your tolerance raise, so you slowly drink more daily.
That's how I went up to about 100cl daily. I would most likely drink more now if I hadn't stopped.

The hard part is having enough money without working, and maintaining enough health to not be forced to rehab in hospitals. Eating food once a day and taking multivitamins seems to be enough.

>>9698356
a handle is 1750ml

>>9698354
175ml an hour

every single hour

every single day

I just don't get how people do it

>>9696922
Confirmed this tonight. One of my main problems is that she is one of the only people I've talked to for months. Had a falling out now though, so unless I kill myself I'll probably learn from it.

>>9696580
Eh. Too late. Already did for two months. Funny that it never goes both ways though.

Probably offing myself though. We'll see after I finish all the alcohol I have in the house. See you on the other side.

>>9696974
is that even a woman on the right or a man in drag?

>staying in hotel on business
Not Drinking Tonight
>room has minibar
>r.i.p minibar at 10x price of buying if from a store
>fuck my life

>>9698388
Yes

>>9698385
did you want to bang her, but instead just talked to her for months?

>>9698434
I didn't want to bang her. I just wanted to protect and treasure her more than anything. I saw her as wife material rather than mate material. She's manipulative though, and tried to get money out of me near the end. It was all just an act. She lied about a ton of things.

>>9698127
I’m currently trying to handle my urges to drink with the help of Xanax. I hit 50mg to avoid the lunch trigger and another 50mg to set off the high risk situation that is the end of the day when I leave the workplace.

Is there anything better than the palpable, slow descent into drunkenness?

the first few days after withdrawals end and you start to feel happy, clean and full of vitality

then of course boredom sets in once you get using to not killing yourself and you start thinking about a drink

>>9698507
Nah, I'm legitimately not in the slightest. It's kind of like strawberries vs passionfruit. I love strawberries and can eat them all day. One taste of passionfruit just kills my appetite and makes me wanna puke. I'd say that's 0%. I don't even like penetrative sex.

It's rare, though. Sure.

>>9698190

I hope you mean .5mg

yet if someone took an MRI of your clitoris while showing you gay male porn you would still get turned on, just like every other "lesbian" on the planet. The vast, vast majority of women want to be dominated by a big strong man, regardless of what they say.

Wait until you're in your mid twenties to develop a habit.

>>9696012

Good on ya lad. Nothing wrong with drinking responsibly.

>>9698556
Yes 0.50mg (2x0.25). For now I’ve found the method to be effective but it slows brain activity so much that I’m growing sick of it rapidly.

>>9698603
I only drink less so that I can continue drinking

when I go on a huge binge I can't drink for at least 12-16 hours afterwards

Some people have trouble with passionfruit. I can't remember if it's an allergy or if it's like genetic like cilantro/coriander tasting like soap.

>>9698642
Yes
And then a little bit more

>>9698642
>>it's not that pleasurable anymore
Because you wake up withdrawing too much to be able to drink, and have to shove vodka up your ass to not go to the hell that DT are, and as soon as you're able to keep anything down, proceed to drink yourself into a blackout and pass out, only to repeat the circle every few hours?
Drinking more doesn't help on the long run.

>>9695287
This is why

>>9695276
Redditor found

I can only drink on the weekend because of my job.
I get black out drunk on my 2 days off and I think it's ruining the only free time I get.

>>9698696
That's what I did for a long time. Now my schedule is more chaotic so I just get buzzed every night but never drunk. I'm not sure which is worse.

>>9698696
i know how you feel, was doing the same thing for 6+ months

felt like my days off were non existent and then id return to work feeling hungover and shit

mostly just lay around on the couch watching tv getting drunk and sleeping all day

i find if you can at least do one productive or enjoyable thing you feel much better

for me it was just the smallest thing like going out to buy groceries or cleaning up my house a bit

I wake up every day with some scotch then get into the kitchen. I'm getting severely depressed ever since I had to split with my ex (heroin addict, needed to get away from the area) and I didnt go with her
I thought she was dead, then she texted me the other day and said shes coming back in december for christmas
I'm trying to get in shape again and stop drinking so I can improve my life, I've been in a dead end job for too long and I need to start teaching art like I'm supposed to.

>but fuck I love scotch so much, I've gotten too used to the depression. but if I cant get her back this time, I'm just going to drink myself to death

>>9698731
I do get out of the house and do stuff but most of the activities I'd do involve drinking.

I go fishing a bit but I take a cooler full of booze.

Sometimes me and a few friends go for a bicycle ride along this beach path that has a lot of bars along it, we stop at every bar and by the end of the path we're drunk.

If it's a hot day we go kayaking and swimming in the local creek, end up drunk every time.

Just typing this out makes me realize I really enjoy doing these alcohol fuelled activities.

>face is on fire
>again
>just like every other time I've taken my medicine over the past 3 years
Flushing sucks bros. Don't get sick. Alcohol makes it worse.

>>9698825
I take multivitamins to stave off malnutrition and antidepressants to stave off suicide

>>9698836
Medicine that helps protect myelin sheaths. For a neurological disease.

>>9698809
yeah, I'm not really seeing the problem

sounds you like you do what you enjoy and have a good time doing it

I was literally getting home from work, starting to drink and the next two days would be me in and out of consciousness drinking and lying on the couch/bed with absolutely no human contact

sounds like you have a pre-conception that you can't enjoy the activities or your time is wasted because you were drinking

Fuck that

>>9698864
If all my friends are busy I'll just drink myself into a coma at home alone on the couch.

>>9698809
>I do get out of the house and do stuff but most of the activities I'd do involve drinking.
Same here, playing pool and playing disk golf.
usually my buddy and I slam a case or 2 of hamms and end up passed out. Pool is tougher since its usually in a bar.
I found it helps to actually try an get really good at something, and I'm shitty at everything when I'm drunk

>get drunk to the point where I'm drooling onto my pullover
>keep drinking
I don't want to become an alcoholic, what do I do?

>>9698877
but you made it sound as if that's not the regular

I mean really if you're getting out of the house for at least one of those activities or other things in those two days I don't see a problem

just because drinking is always involved doesn't make it a bad thing to go and do

>>9698640
mainly curious if people thought it was sustainable, I've also never quit a job

>>9696698

Pull up a chair and get comfy you're among friends here senpai.

It's been more than two and a half years, but I still miss the Everclear. I would black out quite frequently, but I was also taking benzos daily too. I actually miss blacking out. Beer makes me feel bloated and most liquor makes me feel like shit.

>>9696815

Why not? You're still plenty young and have a future ahead of you. Start a taper and enjoy life. Leave this board and never look back.

What are really bad withdrawals like? Also, talk about your worst alcohol-related health problems. I'm on day 2 of sobriety trying to pull myself out of a slow spiral into alcoholism and motivation would be helpful.

>>9699034
gib texts

>>9699055
really bad desu, only withdrawals from benzos and opiates are worse, kratom and nonalcoholic beverages help in a pinch, but you have to make lifestyle changes, don't go cold turkey, wean yourself off slowly

>>9696684
I get this. You open your mouth and it sounds like popping candy on a tongue coming from the back of your throat.

>>9699154

She didn't let (((them))) jerk off in front of her during auditions.

lol

>>9699055

Even minor withdrawals sucks. Waking up every night at 3AM sweating your asshole, severe mental guilt, anxiety about what you are doing to yourself, yet at noon you already feel cravings it's awful.

Then once you progress beyond that point it's not even just sweats, general sleeping issues, difficulty sleeping unless drunk. General confusion, heavy fog about you for weeks until dry.

After you go deeper into alcoholism it becomes much worse, morning sickness, general inability to function well, if at all, without a few drinks leaving you small windows daily to operate. This is the point many people lose jobs and relationships.

Once those are all gone it just becomes a downward spiral to constant drinking and literally just living in a stupor until you get out of it.

>>9697369
fuck man i wouldve called an ambulance at that point go to the hospital

Guys I need help

I just transitioned from drinking a half bottle of whiskey a day to a few beers a day.

Today after I got home and tried to relax after dinner, I began forgetting things that happened earlier in the day. I'm still having difficulty remembering things.

I know there's a word for it but I can't remember that either. My heart rate is up, I can't remember a lot of shit right now. I'm trying to calm down.

I just cracked a beer thinking it was the DTs.

Is this the DTs?

What do I do?

>>9699229
This is probably it, she wouldn't put out on the casting couch.

>>9699269

It really depends on how long you've been drinking anon. A half bottle (750ml?) is not actually that much. Now if you have been doing it for decades, that's different.

Definitely taper off, but know this. I only drank heavily for 3 years, roughly didn't drink 2-3 days a month in that period, and I am currently 10 days sober and I forget a ton of shit I do earlier, conversations. It's a typical mental fog that can last from a week to about 2 months depending on how long you've drank.

It will pass, you are more anxious than anything.

>>9699269
i get sweats if the withdrawals are significant enough. are you shaky? sweating? drink the beer over 20 minutes and see how you feel then. if you feel better, you were getting withdrawals.

>>9699055
Imagine the most crippling anxiety on earth, Now imagine that 10 fold with seizures and hallucinations.

Stop drinking while you can

>>9699269
Sound like moderate withdrawals to me and brain fog. Relax, that anxiety is definitely withdrawals.

I've accepted I'm going to die from something alcohol related and I will never live a sober life.


Oh well, God and the afterlife aren't real so fuck it.

We only get one ride around, Might as well make it a happy/drunk one.

>>9699347
you sound naive to be honest mate.

>happy/drunk

lel. there is pain and fear ahead that you can't even imagine.

>>9699385

Nah, I'm with that Anon. The day drinking is no longer fun I'm taking the Big Sleep.

>>9699429
That's a different approach which leads to less suffering. Anon is planning to die from something alcohol related, which is more like this:

>>9697369
>>9697491

Actually drinking yourself to death is literally torture.

>>9698187
Trees Lounge also.

>>9699461

Under the Volcano is the pinnacle of Al/ck/ kino and /lit/. I cried bitch tears friends.

Love this shit

>>9699482
I went to Mexico and did a lot of drinking there after reading that book. After I got back, I read the wiki for it and discovered how much I didn't know. Really a classic.

>>9699055
pretty sure the only drugs with withdrawals that can kill you are benzos and alcohol

>>9699055
I have constant bladder pain from nerve damage and I'm only 24

>>9699509
those are the only ones that are still common yeah. barbiturates, ludes all other sorts of downers have the same problem.

>>9699524
explain how alcohol fucked up your nerves

>>9699442
I usually start drinking myself to sleep at midnight. I have an appointment tomorrow at 1100 hours, so I started drinking 2 hours early. Think it will work?

>>9699546
first thing from Google
https://www.foundationforpn.org/what-is-peripheral-neuropathy/causes/alcohol/

>>9699524
I've got peripheral neuropathy from the alcohol. Feet always hurt, fingers numb.

>>9699546
Alcoholic neuropathy isn't controversial anon

>>9699566
shit sucks. I've got to piss almost every hour.

>>9699581
I don't have that one. Sounds terrible. When is it catheter time?

>tfw tingly limbs

So is this shit reversable? Probably not, right?

Weight loss anon here; tldr 6ft 160lbs dropped to 138lbs during a hardcore 7 day binge. Stayed busy today, bought another bloomin onion. Things are gonna be okay, God willing

>>9699610
right. Nerve damage is a one way ride. For now. Maybe they'll come up with something someday. It's also a symptom of diabetes, which is usually part of the alcoholic sequela anyway, so it's all tangled up. You can get it from taking statins, too, and since alkies usually have high cholesterol, their well meaning doctors prescribe those, too.

>>9699564
>>9699579
i thought that shit was mainly caused by diabetes and congenital disorders. you learn something every day

>>9699602
it's always catheter time. Just shove that bad boy in there and never have to worry about going to the bathroom again
comes with free UTIs

>>9699610
i get that stuff during w/d's but it goes away when i sober up. i think its related to b vitamin deficiency but i could be wrong...

>>9699695
I was only catheterized once, when I had a kidney stone. They they gave me dilaudid. Worth it, desu.

>>9699602
Hopefully never. I carry something to piss in in my car though.

>>9699793
It was no treat. They went in dry because I had the audacity to wake up the ER doc.

>>9699269

I'm this guy.

Oh my god, I've never been hit with the DTs before, but jesus christ that felt like I was dying. I went to go get some whiskey because I was trying to detox on high percent beer. Not a good idea.

Looks like I'll be weening off on whiskey for the next few days to weeks.

DTs are scary man.

>>9699802
Transient global amnesia. Not unusual. Short term memory gets short circuited. It should come back.

How do I stop myself from drinking? I've had hard liquor every night for the past couple weeks. It's not too bad (relatively) yet, but I got a new job recently and am starting to get my life back on track, and I'd rather not succumb to alcohol dependency so quickly.

>>9699821

That shit was frightening. Thought I was having a stroke there for a few hours. I couldn't recall anything that happened earlier in the day. After two shots of whiskey everything is coming back and my heart rate is going back down. Starting to recall things that happened earlier in the day.

>>9699821

Doesn't TGA affect the person while they're under the influence, and not when they're sober/detoxing?

>>9699858
It's like dissociative disorder. Very frightening when it is happening. This is not some "where are my keys" level of mental instability.

>>9699890
It can happen before, during or after.

Eat.
Force yourself.
One bite of apple and I feel quite a bit better.

>>9695166
Ever heard of Hookers? They fucking changed my life.

>>9699703
I’ve only been sober for days so I’ll try to be optimistic.

I love how these threads help me to keep taking drinking seriously as a problem. It’s easy to forget once you’re sober even if you have been through horrible withdrawals.

>>9699627
Nobody cares but I managed to get back to 152lbs as of today. I go back to work Thursday. Been eating entire jars of peanuts. 6000 KCal each. Also so much Taco Bell. I want to be back in fighting shape by Thursday . You wouldn’t imagine my poops

>>9699801
LOL

they went in dry on me too, when i came in with public intox (benzos and alcohol)

woke up to a mad-looking nurse yank the dry cath out. hurt like a bitch.

>>9700017
you are right about that.

>>9700047
everybody cares. you are doing well right now, keep it up man. and if you gotta binge try not to go more than 3 days for christ sake.

>>9700066
Thanks anon. I don’t PLAN on ever drinking again. But of course 1 day at a time and all that. Praying hard.

>>9700011
Really? Hookers helped? How?

>>9700011
I wish I were wealthy. Hookers are just too expensive for anything more than an occasional treat.

I wish alcohol was illegal. I can't take this.

>>9699986
>tfw I completely lose my appetite on a bender

woke up at 5am drinking hard spirits again

here I am at 2pm waking up with a horrible hangover

why is morning drinking so difficult to continue all day

>>9700084
i say this to everybody. look into naltrexone. makes it easy to stop it from becoming a bender.

>>9700099
Because the body actually hates alcohol and does all it can to let you know it's time to give it a break

>>9695252
you drank yourself retarded, retard.

>>9700092
it really should be

>>9700222
Prohibition does not work. Illegal alcohol simply means you risk jail, it costs five times as much, tastes like hell and is filled with methanol.

>>9700251
I would never drink if it was illegal. I don't even go out of my way for weed.

>>9695130
What's the consensus on hand sanitizer, boys?

The girl at work dared me to squirt some onto our tongues to try it out and I was shocked at how palatable it was. It sorta numbed my tongue but it tasted just like a strong, floral vodka.

I'm guess it'll make me blind though, right?

>>9698528
not to mention that first good night's sleep after the withdrawals end. so fucking comfy.

>>9700259
stop doing shit women dare you to do

Does sugar make withdrawals worse? I swear to God, I can't stop fidgeting and shaking. I'm going fucking insane.

>>9698596
i started drinking regularly at 11...

>>9700283
absolutely. fructose (byproduct of sugar) directly competes with acetaldehyde (byproduct of ethanol) for metabolic resources within the liver and therefore slows the rate at which your body can break down alcohol. sometimes very significantly, like, more than double.

>>9700354
Lovely. This is going to be a goddamn long night.

>>9700283

>>9700354 here, sorry, i thought you said hangovers. i'm not so sure about WDs, although what i said is possibly still relevant depending on how far out of the woods you are (but you also probably already knew it)

>>9700360
Well I managed to quit for two weeks then hopped back on board with a Canadian mickey of 45% vodka. for 5 days.

>>9700354

Anyone get moderate but near constant abdominal pain that migrates around the gut area? Sometimes it feels like it would be my kidneys, sometimes liver etc. Been going hard (10ish or more beers oer bight) for going on 10 years. Its not a chronic pain but after months with it i am getting anxious i've done some permanent damage

>>9700663
you might be fucked, you might also just be bloated or having stomach issues from constant irritation

try taking a few days off of drinking to see if it decreases, see a doctor otherwise

>>9700711
I had a week off and it did seem to settle down but not go away entirely. Am.only 32 this is fukd
