Sometimes I like to take a picture of Owen Wilson, blurry it up a bit, and use it as a Tinder picture so girls will complement me for looking like Owen Wilson. They typically get really pissed when we meet and I look nothing like him at all. One called the cops on me before.

I've been drinking really weak (<4%abv) beers lately. But like, a lot of them back to back, sometimes 11 or 12 at a time.

It kind of worries me, because I get very little hangover from that compared to mixing or stronger beers, probably because it doesn't spike my BAC as easily or something. Anyway, it's cheap, and I think I'm falling into a habit. Did it last night, I'm rehydrated, and thinking about picking up a six pack to sip on once the sun goes down.

so....I am getting really bad anxiety and depression after drinking now.

the other day it was so bad, I went and did my blood pressure at the local drug mart.

166/112 - not fucking good. Heart rate was racing for 2 days. Could have been some cocaine I did Thursday, but I drank heavily Thursday to Sunday night. Monday was awful. I am starting to feel normal again right now. Slept 12 hours last night, but had trouble this morning because my heart was racing so much. I have a smokers cough now, and my liver enzymes are fucking high. I think I'm at the point where I am killing myself everytime I drink, and I might have a fucking heart attack or stroke at 28.

Fuck me. I have so many people who care about me too. I have 2 beautiful girls in my life that want me to get help, and want to marry me. They have both said they don't want to see me binge drinking anymore, one refuses to be around me at all when I drink. Both hate my smoking and closet drug use.

If you fish in the tidal salt water you mainly get bream, whiting, flathead, trevally, squid, Australian salmon, snapper, mangrove jack.

Up in the fresh and brackish water you get Australian bass, perch, eels, crayfish.

It changes depending on how far north or south you are but that's generally what I catch around the Brisbane area.

Put on some pounds since I stopped working in December. Beetus causes the tendons to contract which results in hammertoes, They were rubbing on my shoes which caused an infection in the bones.

It will help but be careful with it. Do some research before about how much you should take, valium and other benzos are common in treating alcohol withdraw when you have to visit the hospital
If you can go to the hospital that is the best bet though, they'll pump you with all the nutrients you need without having to stomach all of it

well yeah, benzos aren't meant to be mixed with alcohol. just hang in there is basically the only thing that you can do. dont take more thinking its not working because i will kick in eventually. When you're waiting try to drink some water or just sleep if you can.
but if you're taking as early as you're saying it should work within 20-30 minutes, and its not going to be immediate "feel amazing" kind of thing, it will just help with the nausea and anxiety and shaking. The only thing thats going to help you with the want to drink is not drinking

Sometimes I look at myself and how I am when I'm talking drunk and think
"Wow I'm brilliant with my drink in me"
Other times I'm sober some days in and think "this is the sharpest I've ever been"
What can one do facing polarity like this? What is the truth?
Sometimes I think the truth is that there is a God who has blessed us with an eternal soul that will shine one way or another, and all the self hate and judgement is just a way to avoid the extreme truth, that we are loved and brilliant no matter what, the same way fathers love their sons no matter what crimes we commit, we should love eachother and forgive ourselves. We need to forgive ourselves as we need to forgive others. This is how we honor our father, no matter if they honored us.

Been drinking 6 to 8 beers a night. Got into the habit from being homeless for a year. I worked to get off the streets but your day starts so early-like 4AM so I would wander down to the meatpacking district and help unload trucks for cash most days. When I was done I'd meet with caseworkers. This would be anywhere from 7 to 10 AM. Get done with them and what other things you gotta do and it's noon 1PM. Can't go in until 5-6PM and I kept to myself but so tired and bored I'd start drinking to relax and face going back to the shitty shelter. I didn't drink myself shitfaced but to the edge of Drunk. Now I've gotten off the streets and things are going well but I'm still in that street habit. IDK if it's good or bad-I can function,don't wake up hungover,am a happy drunk.

I relate to this post a lot. Almost 2 months sober now, but yea binging is brutal. I was a weekend warrior type. Basically drunk from when I got off work at 5pm until I woke up monday morning for work. It's honestly harder on your body than just continually drinking. All of the stopping and starting will really fuck you up.

Also what you're describing is how WD's start, my dude. Happened to me when I was around 22 or 23. Hangovers gradually transition from nausuea/headache into a totally depraved, uncomfortable feeling that can only be healed by time or more drink

I feel ya about the blood pressure, but know that coming off of a bender is probably the worst your BP will be at and the store meters are terrible. I had awful BP when drinking. Not sure how it is now, but I feel way less bloated, my face isn't red anymore and as soon as I get my health insurance through I'm going to go see a doctor and get some BP pills if I need them again. You won't stroke out at 166/112. It's high and bad for you, but you wouldn't believe how fucking high I saw BP when I worked in the ER. I'm talking 250/140.

Get checked out. BP will go down once you quit drinking as will the anxiety. Liver can heal itself.

Take it easy and don't let the boredom suck you back in. Also don't be a degenerate polyamrous fuck. It will just cause problems down the road.

>Also don't be a degenerate polyamrous fuck. It will just cause problems down the road.

I know, my close friends have told me this. It's hard, because when I get into an argument with one, the other one is always there. Sometimes "when it rains, it pours" neither are liking me. And sometimes I can't speak with one on the phone because I'm with the other. I need to do something about that, and it's an added stress in my life to be honest.

I also wouldn't discount the coke on your BP. Drinking, cigs and coke is a fucking hammer on your heart. I started vaping bc I picked up smoking when I got sober because I was stressed out a lot. It's alright. I think I'm actually losing weight though. My gf says I have.

Other stints are like 5 days here, 4 days there never more than a month since I started drinking at like, 15.

I didn't find I was getting WDs when we were on vacation, but I am shakey, not terrible, but shaky when I stop after my usual 3 or 4 night binge. I usually drink 15 plus tall cans a night when I'm drinking. I have a fully stocked bar of hard liquor I don't touch, i always buy a bottle of duty free when i cross the border. I stopped drinking whisky a few years ago because i was told by close friends how unhealthy my drinking habits were. usually a mickey chased by a 6 pack. i was getting pretty sloppy drunk and i am more composed off beer. or so i think.

Father died last year from boozing. Not exclusively boozing but he was mixing his drinking with fentanyl patches which lead to his liver failing. I never went a weekend without drinking for around 6-7 years and I was just getting tired and feeling like shit on days I didn't have a beer in my hand. I had my first drink when I was 6 years old. My father made himself a drink and put it on the fridge and I somehow found a way up and drank the whole thing. I'm surprised I didn't die that night but I look back on it a lot.

Technically yes, since you're consuming a stimulant and a depressant at the same time, and that's not so good for the heart and shit.

I'll admit I'm a boozer, my family is, my friends are, my girlfriend. If I wanted to quit I can't because it's that engrained in our culture and people who don't drink are seen as outcasts or weirdos it seems teetotal folk are more accepted in the states.

I just want to stop being greedy with my booze.

sober 12 yrs april 16. Was drinking in my basement and decided i was a fucking loser (true dat,was.)Made a phone call and was in another state within 2 months. first two yrs. wanted to drink every day (but it was like a dull ache). Did the deal right (twelve steps), sponsored people etc. I begged to die or get better, got the latter. If i can do it anyone can but it happens differently for everybody. Pray even if you don't believe there is something big out there, trust me.

These threads are unlike anything else on 4chan, possibly the internet. You guys agree?
I once said these are the realest threads, I think maybe because so many anons who post here are dying literally or are in a hellish existence of their own making. This isn't a whine about the world thread, or a place to try and scare eachother. We blame ourselves the most, and we don't need to be scared straight, we already have the fear.
Sometimes I think we are dancing with the devil, other times we are running from him in fear of our life. And yet in the end, I can't help but feel we are battling death itself, an ancient form of evil, and possibly winning. It's when you stop sharing your situation and stop caring to read other posts, that's when the darkness beats you. Until then even when posts go without a reply, they matter here in a way they don't in any other place on the net. Flashes of light, signalling eachother at sea, knowing that we are not alone.

I got called into the office today and my manager and his manager were there. They asked me about my "sick" absences. I had to come clean, and my supervisor said he understood the difficulties of alcoholism, and that the issue was also close to them. I've never been in a position of closeness like this at a work place. It makes me want to get better. I wish my past bosses had reached out to me in this way. al/ck/ is the only other place I've ever felt understood. Maybe this is the right job to really clean up for.

Exactly. And if you're the least bit exceptional you have to expect that jealous cunts will be innately interested in cutting you, they want to bring their friends in to replace you or make the boss consider that maybe youre not so great. Giving them information or personal details about your life is just too damaging. And the sick thing is despite knowing this I still do it in almost every job. I am really more cut out for freelancing where I can tell clients to fuck themselves when they push back on everything or question me too often, and where you never open up to them as friends.

I don't know, friend. Make peace with it and remind yourself you will be okay no matter what, there is something metaphysical and magical about hedging your bets, shoring yourself up, forgiving yourself for not being perfect or doing and saying all the right things. When you feel dependent on a woman or employer is when they will always betray you, when you shore yourself up and actively look for other options they stay loyal. The problem is you can't take things back, and you can't trust them, and if you showed your belly once you have to be a predator from then on out and it's exhausting.

during my last bender the woman who sorts out my volunteering hours called me and I have no idea what the fuck the conversation was, it was pretty long though. Did I agree to more hours? Have some cancelled? Simpy burst into tears? I was quite enjoying being around people who don't know I'm a worthless drunk but so much for that I suppose. Fuck knows how I'm going to ask her how that went without looking like a complete spastic

I live in the Boston area which I read recently is one of the most drunk big cities in the U.S. and they didn't include Universities in the study.

I just got on my feet after a year on the street. But my days are still kinda the same. Today I woke up at 3AM-your day starts early on the street/shelter-went to the produce markets,worked 4 hours and made 80 bux,came home,read,and got on 4chan. Between 11 and 1 I'll go get a 12 pack,drink about 8 throughout the day while talking with random people I know,come home eat and fall asleep. That's what I did when I was out except I would work at the meatpacking district. Most of my friends work in street outreach,rapid rehousing,or the medical field and either drink like I do or are in the program (even before I was out). I didn't drink like this before-I got priced out of the place before this. I can't seem to change my street routine which you need unless you want to become a shelter dweller for life yelling at people and doing what you want no matter what. Anyone else relate to this? I can't be the only one who has went through this can I?

i've never been homeless but i've spent enough time with homeless people to know that i'd rather be on the streets than in a shelter. aren't they ludicrously violent? over here loads of people are just thrown into a building and left to it. everyone there is either going through booze/smack withdrawal, hiding from the police for whatever reason or is simply insane. i'd much rather chance it on the street. if i were to go to that extreme though i'd relocate to the woods, hide a tent, drink rainwater, forage/hunt (using a catapult) for food and pickpocket for cash. being homeless is imo one step above enduring diagnosis of a fatal disease.

Well weather is a real issue in the winter and to get assistance you gotta be in the system. I spent most of my time with a contract bed which is separate from the main part-The Arena. I was quiet,knew how to act,and like I said have friends who work in that field that I've known for a long time so I was lucky. But if you're making an effort and aren't a junkie or shitface getting drunk then you can be put in a better spot. Still a shelter though.

At this point no unless it paid very well. The way it's set up is that if I got even just a minimum wage job I would lose my healthcare and housing assistance and there is no way to live here on less than 50-60k a year or with a big family that sticks together.

moon shiner come find her
she's broken by the river
and just can't find her heart
oh this devil drags her down
sweet sixteen
seen things you ain't ever seen
still got his eyes open
on following a dream
but he don't know
that this devil will drag him down

but I, I, I, I know
this devil drags them down

tonight has finished me off again
I just can't keep up
and try to kick the drink
but my baby knows
that this devil drags me down
long nights make for longer days
you'll never see it coming
till it puts you in your place
but I, I know
that this devil will drag me down

but I, I, I, I know
this devil drags me down

it ain't so tough
being all alone
until you just can't take
being all alone
you can't keep on closing
and locking all your doors
cause darling you get older
it ain't easy anymore

but I, I, I, I know
this devil drags me down
and I, I, I, I know
this devil drags me down
and I, I, I, I know
this devil drags me down

At first I stayed on the street because of the reasons you listed-prison is safer than The Arena in a mid to big city shelter-but my friends told me that I wouldn't be able to get help unless I was in a shelter. I tried but couldn't do it on my own. And I was tired and had no hope and said fuck it. At first it was pretty bad but then I got moved like I said and changed my hours around so I never really came into contact with the general population,kept my appointments,didn't cause trouble and let my people do their job. I'm a good risk and they need wins too so it was only a year-a little longer but a year in the shelter system. I'm considered a success story believe it or not.

Help. I stopped drinking hard liqour and tappered with beer and wine and weed. like a month ago i switched to weed only, and now i've been off the weed for about 2 weeks.. but the issue at hand is... i feel like i act way more autistic ever since i went completely sober. Ain't it supposed to be the other way around? More clarity and normal behavior when sober.

It's called Post Acute Withdrawal Syndrome. You didn't get fucked up in one week and you're not going to clear your head in one week. 10 miles into the forest 10 miles out of the forest. Not that bad but you can see what I mean. Just do your best to keep your chill. You will be alright in a while. And you'll notice the progress. Hang in there and sperm out on here-everyone else does. Maybe go to an A.A. meeting just to see how bad some people got it. Not to shit on them but to see how much worse it could be.

I think that's called having a personality. I noticed the same thing.
People like me more for it, I'm a super introverted asshole when I'm drinking or smoking everyday and just want everyone to leave me alone. They can tell and they don't like it. Takes a few days to start being a nice person again and saying things that occur to me, usually jokes or keen observations. I'm just generally smarter and a better person after staying sober for a few days. If only I could make it weeks months or years.

Entering day two. Again.

Jesus. That's known as a sign of demonic attachment amongst numerous spiritual schools of thought.

I knew secondhand of someone addicted to porn and alcohol who would hallucinate insects. Irish descendent.

Then I had a friend who (admittedly on drugs) hallucinated being covered in snakes and it traumatized him. His parents were both alcoholics (scottish descent).

This is in America, not that it matters.

The friend lived in a haunted home. Many interesting experiences there spending the night
