Day 8 here. Like 14 minutes sleep last night before my neighbours CUNT of a dog began its desperate, daily task of informing the entire street that another person, car or leaf had passed the building.

Eventually it shows through. You can have dates where you both have a lot of wine. You can outpace her a bit on nights at home. You can get drunk by yourself on your nights alone.

But eventually she catches on. So if you're looking for an idea on how to make it past a few months, I'm afraid I'm not sure. But up to then you can make it look fairly normal.

There was this half-black chick that liked me and would have fucked me, and we got into bed on two separate occasions but my nerves were so insane that I couldn't do it. I was even drunk both times too, and I NEVER get nervous when I'm drunk. Like my entire body locked up and was tingling, I could barely talk. Then we just stopped and talked regularly and slept together but we never had sex.
I think it was better that we didn't though, in retrospect I didn't want to fuck her I don't think, she was just my only prospect before graduation.

I understand how you feel my dude. If it makes you feel any better, you're really not missing much. With women, it's always "What Have You Done For Me Lately". You could save her from a burning car, a few days later she'll be right back to wondering if she'd be happier with the hot new guy who just started working at the office. She'll always have a least a few guys on the back burner, waiting for you to fuck up, or even just for her to get pissed off for no reason whatsoever. If you slip up and your social standing diminishes, you come up short on the dinner bill, play a song she doesn't like, etc etc etc you better believe she's thinking about getting revenge with one of her beta orbiters.

The thing you're longing for exists only in the movies. Irl women don't give a fuck about you, even one who says she loves you. The only person in this world who can love you is yourself.

>> No.10178811

It sucks man, but sobriety is an ongoing process. I know this is debatable, but in my opinion a slip up isn't the same as a relapse. Slip ups happen, and honestly a half pint isn't bad. It just depends on how you respond to it. Take it as a lesson, and write down how you currently feel, and how much you hate yourself for having done it. It's a nice reminder next time you get that itch

Hey guys
When most of you use the word ''bender''...
For instance: I've done a 3 days, 4 days, 5 days bender, did this, did that, etc.
Do you mean that you've been daydrinking-->pass out-->drink more-->rinse&repeat for eternity, or you've only been drinking in the evening? I just want to know if ''daydrinking'' must fit the definition of a ''bender''.

Thanks in advance. Oh, and yes, I'm drunk.

>> No.10178879

>>10178873
At least for me, bender implies drinking all hours of the day I'm conscious. It usually includes not leaving the house, not showering, and rarely eating. I'll drink when I wake up, pass out for a few hours, wake up again and repeat until my body literally starts rejecting both alcohol and food, and I have no choice but to stop. Only drinking in the evening is more along the lines of functional alcoholism

If I drink, I’ve relapsed. One drink results in me drinking to the point of being annihilated, which means going into withdrawal the next day, so I drink again. I guess some people drink the next day to avoid hangovers, too. Either way, it’s a relapse, so you’re back on the bottle for.. who knows. Days, weeks, years or until you die, because it was ‘the one’. For me personally, if I’ve relapsed, then if I’m conscious I’m drunk or drinking, from the moment I open my eyes. It doesn’t necessarily require day drinking, merely falling off the wagon and being back on the sauce.

Thanks for the answers, lads. I was asking the question because English isn't my first language, so I'm not familiar with that word. When I translate it in some websites, it's like the equivalent of... ''oh, uh, yeah, being drunk''. So I wanted to know.

I drink a lot on many evenings, which explains my curiosity. Daydrinking is quite scary and I wanted to know if a ''bender'' (as used by fellows here) was concerned by that or not.

Sometimes I wake up on Saturdays and really want to continue what I've been doing the evening before. Never done it, but I'm getting close now... Hence my question. Etc.

>Daydrinking is quite scary

Ya, that's usually the point when you go from binge drinker to alcoholic and start to get physical dependency. Even if you only drink in the evenings, you can usually wake up in the morning and function. Sure, you may feel like shit, but you can still function. Once you start drinking during the day, even if it's just sipping throughout the day to maintain that pleasant buzz, that's when your body starts becoming dependent and you get withdrawal once you stop. You said you sometimes wake up and want to continue, but really fight through it if you can. That's really how the true alcoholism starts

Finally down to a 100ml bottle in the morning and then after forcing myself to do normal things and chores for 6-8 hours I get to drink a 375ml and do whatever.
I bought:
>four 375ml 80 proof of cheap vodka
>four 100ml of the same kind.

So far it seems to be working.
I try to limit it to only 4 of each kind in case I accidently a bender.

I was buying 2 handles and splitting them into 500ml portions every day but the urge to keep drinking on an open handle was too strong.
Hopefully within two more weeks I can get down to just buying a 375ml of something half decent and drinking on it all day instead of needing the 100ml bottle when I wake up.

I also got me a half gram of some good speed to get a bump of in the mornings to help me try and get off my ass and do yardwork or bathe more.

I came to the conclusion that I was drinking because I was bored and it was amplifying the fun experience of normal things I did anyways. Now Im almost 6 months off weed + alch. I'm honestly not sure how I did it but at first it was just a day at a time but now it's like drinking doesn't even seem like an option. I just forget about it if it ever comes up in my head. I've had some pretty hard impulses to want to drink too. Ever since I quit I went from not having a job to having a shitty job and now I have a great job. I basically realized if I want to accomplish anything I have to stop being a little bitch and actually go out and do what I want. I also don't use AA (had to do it mandatory for a couple years from DUIs) because in my personal oppinion talking about drinking all the time just makes people want to drink while also putting drinking on a pedestal. Furthermore, while I did feel as if I had a lot in common with the people in AA I always thought that most of the people there just didn't have enough ambition and used it instead as a dick rating contest to see who's the more macho alchoholic. I will say running everyday helps too as well as eating healthy. My ass is about to run a marathon in a couple weeks.

How much are you drinking? Remember to take multivitamins and drink plenty of water, and if you have a healthy enough heartrate for it physical labor/working out during the day helps me sleep more still and not toss.
Since I started this go out and do normal-people stuff for 6-8 hours (aka not sitting on 4chan or staring at the internet) It helped me

Oh yeah I remember when I did that, I grabbed a machete and a shotgun and ended up deep in the woods alone and passed out there. Did that multiple times, but once I mistaked the neighbors goats for gnomes and killed one and tried to bury him under a fallen tree.

Day 8 of nothing. No drugs, no benzos, no booze and definitely no fucking sleep. Last night I dreamt during the 14 minutes of memesleep I eventually got, that I had to climb an 800,000ft mountain, by way of pulling myself up a broken ski lift with my hands. When I got to the top I couldn't speak the language of the people who I found there, so they couldn't understand my screams as I dangled 80k feet in the air saying I couldn't find a place to get off. Woke up at that moment so drenched in sweat that my mattress is still soaked now. All pretty obvious, sub conscious symbolism for the situation in which I find myself now that I'm sober, and still flailing round like a directionless fuck up who's scared to death of either relapse, or having to be sober forever and not knowing how the hell to achieve it.
I do take supplements and I'm actually eating for a change, I just hope the constant temptation to relapse doesn't fuck me, because I know I'll be instantly fucked again if it does.
Hope you can stay within booze levels conducive to continued improvement mang. I fear the road to irreparable insanity isn't too far off for either of us if we don't keep it together.

How fast do you drink that 375ml?
I would need to slam it, and would still want to drink more.

>> No.10179647

>>10179578
Well I normally do:

Early morning : Awaken fitfully again but this time can no longer take it so I pour up 100ml vodka bottle , 100ml water , and 200 ml healthy juice into cup
Morning-early afternoon: Try and keep as busy or focused as possible to ignore symptoms and try and go as long as possible not drinking

Then from roughly between 2pm-8pm I try to go as long as possible between drinking
125ml vodka + 75ml water with 200ml cranberry juice in my 450ml (roughly) coffee mug.

sometimes I fuck up and down all 3 coffee mugs worth within 2 hours because I am starting to feel pretty good so after each 125ml (1/3rd) I take out from it I add roughly 62.5ml cold water in the bottle so I technically get 375ml and then a bonus super watered down drink.

Yes I have a massive measuring station in my new improvised kitchen. Don't laugh
Tapering with liquor is dangerous so If I stick to this I will hopefully one day be able to just buy a fifth of something good and sample it whenever I want because I will learn self-control.
And all this measuring makes me feel like I am making and taking a medicine to stop the symptoms.

I hope that made sense? I am not looking to catch a buzz or get drunk, I am trying to taper with liquor until I get back to only having to deal with PAWS and no more intense physical shit.

That sounds like one of those wildly realistic dreams that is genuinely terrible that people here keep getting, Sounds terrifying.

Do you ever think you can learn to moderate your drug/alcohol usage or is totally abstaining from them a more realistic goal for you, I understand that constant temptation thing thats why I would rather just be honest that I can never totally quit everything but learn when to do it and when not too.

Also If I fuck up and drink all of the 375ml before 5-6 pm I just have to suffer for 12 hours till I am allowed to have a 100ml bottle no sooner than daybreak. Although sometimes I have lasted till 7-8am without the 100ml bottle.

I am on a weird schedule when I have to do 24/7 care of an elderly lady 5-6 days out of the week.

She is up and down a lot , but 6-7pm is normal bedtime for her and 4-6am she tries to get up but I tell her I am not turning the coffee pot on until 6:30am every morning. (she loves coffee) It also helps her keep what little schedule she vaguely understands (routine is important in dementia care) and it helps me with pacing.

I am doing better with the whole downing the whole thing in one go and then suffering for 13-14 hours.

But for once I have some willpower to say no, I will not crack the seal on a new bottle. Never been able to really do that before.
Although I am not a saint with willpower right now, I am able to have restraint more and more each day.

It is working better than the beer tapering which made me just chug beers after a while and vomit foam and have liquid shit n sweats.

Unless you are not being sarcastic and thanks.
But I do know that it is a silly concept.
It works 5-6 days of the week and I only sneak in a little extra 1-2 days a week.
Although I have a bad habit of fucking up 1 day a week and buying a random bunch of sugary malt beers and random ass exotic shit and then making myself sick all day.

But this is better than 750-1500ml a day.
but the ideal sounds pretty silly to me too, but it is so far the only vague hope of moderation I have found, even if I cheat sometimes.

>This study looked specifically at the effect of alcohol use disorders, and included people who had been diagnosed with mental and behavioural disorders or chronic diseases that were attributable to chronic harmful use of alcohol. Of the 57,000 cases of early-onset dementia (before the age of 65), the majority (57%) were related to chronic heavy drinking.

>The World Health Organization (WHO) defines chronic heavy drinking as consuming more than 60 grams pure alcohol on average per day for men (4-5 Canadian standard drinks) and 40 grams (about 3 standard drinks) per day for women. For early-onset dementia, there was a significant gender split. While the overall majority of dementia patients were women, almost two-thirds of all early-onset dementia patients (64.9%) were men.

>The authors also noted that only the most severe cases of alcohol use disorder -- ones involving hospitalization -- were included in the study. This could mean that, because of ongoing stigma regarding the reporting of alcohol-use disorders, the association between chronic heavy drinking and dementia may be even stronger.

Definitely be careful, my friend. As others have said, day drinking is the fast track to alcoholism. I went from getting drunk every night, so spending my whole weekends getting day drunk into the night, and then moved on to waking up and drinking a little to just ease the hangover. From there, it blossomed, slowly but surely, into NEEDING to drink in the morning and all throughout the day just to function.

As >>10179090 said, it becomes way too difficult to even maintain your normal life once you get to that point. You start missing out on all kinds of opportunities, and you hate yourself for it, so you just drink more to make you hate yourself a little less....this of course makes everything worse when you wake up the next day and realize how low you've sank.

I gotta say I'm a little nervous, but at least no one there nows about my relationship with alcohol.

I heard a story on the radio on my drive to work last week that went something like:

>when i was a kid an uncle i almost never saw was coming to stay with us for the weekend
>my parents told me not to spend too much time around him, because - now that i'm older - they could tell me that he kind of has a drinking problem
>dad went out and bought three handles of jack daniel's (uncle was only staying for 2 nights)
>get together seemed to go well, uncle was friendly and sociable, and all three handles were empty at the end of the weekend, but i only saw him have a drink once or twice
>ask my mom, "what's the deal with uncle so and so? i never saw him drunk"
>mom puts her hand on my head and laughs, "honey, you never saw him sober"

I get the sentiment but I know we don't. Wouldn't it be amazing to reconnect with an old friend on 4chan, though. Especially one you thought was a turbo normie. Being able to talk about old times without the disingenuousness of insecure highschool druggies. Never ever.

>>10184388
Wish I could tell you but comparing and contrasting highs is a bit too abstract for my fried brain to muster up anything useful. I guess I'll try anyways.

At typical doses, Tryptamines and phenylethamines can feel like upgrading your vision to 4K while overlaying your vision with beautiful kaleidoscopic patterns and turn sounds into liquid pleasure streaming into your ears from all directions. On LSD and Shrooms, you notice things you never saw before. You pick up on all these hidden universal patterns that are present in everything. If you're friendly with your own reflection, you will see yourself honestly and objectively, faults and everything, and you'll accept it. You can feel every individual cell in your body, the blood running through your veins, the air filling in every nook and cranny of your lungs and cascading out your mouth in a celebration of life. You move with the grace and fluidity of a dancer, effortlessly cutting through the air around you. You feel connected to the universe and eternity. You might get a sensation that everything suddenly makes sense, as if you caught a glimpse at the math equation that makes the simulation work. You'll dance and sing and play and laugh like a child in the garden of eden.

DXM is not like that. A light dose will feel like you're drunk and high at the same time but you're starting to lose track of your mental map and you can't seem to walk or talk normally. As you approach true tripping territory, you'll notice your vision start to slip away from you and some textures turn to ooze and drip down the walls. (1/?)

ugh, won't be long until waking in a cell becomes part of the routine. going cold turkey behind bars is god-tier awfulness. just a room with a wooden 'bed', guards who won't even respond if you're screaming because you're losing your mind in withdrawal, a water fountain, a toilet with no toilet paper, camera watching you 24/7 and invariably at least one lunatic in a neighbouring cell losing the plot/generally trying to kill.

Whereas LSD and Shrooms bring out beautiful sacred geometry, DXM is constantly assaulting you with a cacophony of random shapes, patterns, and colors which is made all the more disorienting by your increasingly unstable and now doubled vision. This (https://youtu.be/Dkk3YLb4QfE)) is a pretty good video to give you an impression of the "computerized" visuals it tends to produce. If you close your eyes at this point, prepare to be teleported into another universe that's so vivid you sometimes forget your eyes are even closed. Sounds becooooooome veeeeeeerrrrrry loooooooongggggg and deep and textured. Listening to music is like using an electron microscope. There's no gurgling and hissing like with LSD and Shrooms, instead there's a whirring, pulsing, chugging, and buzzing like an electric generator. Very fitting, because if you've taken a step at this point, you'll have realized that you've turned into a robot, awkwardly moving around with muscles you can no longer feel. Ever see one of those videos of an AI getting better at walking with each successive attempt? You're generation 40 or 50 compared to a sober 80. Be very careful when moving around because you can destroy your muscles without even realizing it by overexerting yourself. I once stood up from a crosslegged position without using my arms or twisting my trunk. Maybe I'm out of shape and not flexible but just fucking try that.

Sorry for the shitty formatting and grammar, I don't talk or post much. Kinda running out of steam here, any effects I didn't cover or that you want more details on?

I did a LOT of dxm back in the day, and that feeling of walking around like a robot is the most spot on thing about your description. It's not really a high you can easily put into words, and isn't at all like most hallucinogens. To the anon who asked about it initially, all I can say is that 9/10 people I introduced it to (who had done plenty of other shit before) absolutely hated the experience, but I loved it, and always got a calming sense of clarity when I was coming down. When you're peaking you basically have waking dreams with your eyes still open, but it's not at all like with shrooms or the like. Pretty sure I fucked up my liver drinking cough syrup long before I became an alcoholic.

Well for starters it's longer, has a smoother come up, sharper visuals, and is all around more stable than a mushroom trip. You're a lot more in control of yourself and connected to reality than mushrooms. While you're still prone to negative thought patterns, it's a lot easier to recognize when you're thought train is going off the rails and make a conscious decision to move to a new environment or change the music so as to re-ground yourself, as opposed to shrooms which tend to leave me in a state of confusion and emotional flux with the occasional bout of transcendent clarity. Acting sober and interacting with the normal world is easier but personally if I'm tripping I don't want my stream of thought to be interrupted or hijacked by the mundane world of sober people's lives.

I'm personally a bigger fan of LSD for its manageability, price, and duration.

a good analogy i heard is that acid puts you in the driver's seat, whereas shrooms puts you in the passenger seat. i think that's generally true, and agrees with >>10184799's characterization. acid is more lucid overall. there are other distinguishing factors between the highs, though. shrooms feel more organic, both visually and mentally, and seem more emotionally-oriented. shrooms are also more sedating at high doses, whereas acid is energizing and spurs my desire to adventure. another thing i've read and agree with: acid is like a videogame, shrooms are like a movie. they're both worthwhile experiences. i also love microdosing shrooms,
