There's a cognitive dissonance where you know and can literally see that you're fucking yourself and your life up, even mid-act of doing something monumentally stupid cause you're wasted, but doing it anyway because the drink is making you feel better. Truly a fucking illness man. I'm not sober. Keep telling myself I need to stop 'oh but not yet... This week at work was so hard... My anxiety is just a bit too bad to stop now, it would make things worse.' fuck man. It gets you

that's not why he's drinking like that though. he's doing that because he stole money from an organized crime group and they were soon to find out where he was, and what he did, once his plot to pin it on someone else fell short.
he's drinking like that because in the film Training Day he's about to get fucking smoked in the next scene or two.

I've been drinking too much beer lately but keeping it to a consistent amount daily, last night I "broke my rule" and went and walked to the store to buy another 6pack, and on the way back I found a subway gift card for 7 dollars labeled "To: Child of God, From: God's Servant", I picked it up, I brought it home and checked my receipt and saw that my beer cost $6.67 after tax, I ended up dumping it all down the drain.

Last time I went to detox and rehab, I walked in and blew a 0.42 after not drinking for a few hours. I was drinking 1.5 liters of vodka a day for 3 months and on days that I couldn't handle the vodka on my stomach, I drank 5 liters of 14% franzia boxes of wine a day to stop the shakes.

I couldn't go more then a few hours without a drink without withdrawling. If I ever went more than 6 hours without a drink. It would take chugging 3 bottles of wine in a 15 minute period and waiting 45 minutes for it all to hit before I was "normal"

i was drinking a 5th a day during the pandemic, and probably around a pint a day for the last 8 years.

proud to say i'm down to less than a pint now. slowly weening off. sometimes abstaining during the day drives me to extreme anxiety and psychosis, but i can see a path to sobriety.

At my absolute worst, I woke up one morning still hungover thinking I had stormed through the worst. I made breakfast and sat down at my table to eat. I finished it and within 15 minutes of finishing my meal, a great wash of anxiety and fear hit me like I never had before. I didn't even know what was wrong, but I was pacing around my home just waiting for the stores to open so I could buy some booze.

The day I went to get detoxed at the hospital, I bought a bottle of whiskey first thing in the morning, chugged like 1/4 of the bottle and it didn't even help. I was too far gone. Scary stuff. Being sober is gay, but it's better than that hell.

Not really like that, but I've heard of vodka-only fuckers getting their allotment for the night then having to shake and quake their way into the liquor store and then have to do that in the parking lot. When I do dry out, it does have to be a gradual taper though of titrating down the dose, otherwise I literally can't sleep. I think that most of the DT hallucination stories are the same as meth junkies where they just haven't slept in days, so you start hearing opera to white noise and shadows start to animate.

It's so hard to be a chef, and still abstain from alcohol. I used to be a hardcore alcoholic, and even lost my job because I couldn't stay sober long enough to get through a shift any more. I got clean, and got my job back, and the past two weeks have been great, I regained my passion for cooking and coming up with specials and tasting menus for special occasions, really looking forward to Valentine's day service, but theres still a general tradition amongst the staff to start drinking at the end of their shifts, waitresses bring us a free beer in the last hour before close, and closing is basically just drinking and cleaning. They KNOW my issue, but they still try to bring me a beer every night, and always say things like "come drink with us chef" or "you can have one beer boss, you'll be fine", and dear God if that ice cold beer doesn't always look like heaven in a glass, at the end of a long and busy night. I'm staying strong and denying them every time, and actually snapped at them all tonight and reminded them that they work under me, and that we're here to work, not socialize, but still. I'm thinking about that beer right now, there's still time to go to the store and have a beer, but I know that I'll just go back to slamming gallons of whiskey every day.

I'm a Leaf but there was a period in my early 20s when I had basically no friends because I couldn't stand being around drunk people. It was intolerable being the only sober person in a room full of drunks, even if they were mostly my long-time friends. I'm past that now and I've reconnected with that group, but I was miserable for a few years and alcohol was one of the primary reasons for it.

Binge-drinker here, I've got you anon. I don't eat on my drinking days because it slows me down. If I eat first, I can't get the level of blitzed I like, and if I eat after I just zonk out and go to sleep. The next day to recover, I'll start with a Mt. Dew for a blast of sugar and caffeine, then switch to water. Once I've got my fluid levels back up, I'll have a can of soup and a glass of milk to get some soft protein and carbs to work with. Then back to water and naps.
I don't really get hangovers, just a little cranky since the booze doesn't give you quality sleep, but easing back into eating works best for me. By nighttime I can cook myself a solid dinner with protein, starch, and veg.

yea i had so many of those "fuck it" moments, often but not always followed by blacking out.
just try to be sober for 1 week. see how it goes. you'll notice things that are shitty that made you drink before, and you'll really want to drink, but nothing changed when you drank. i dunno man it's hard to explain. just try to be sober for a week.

alternatively, fall down the stairs and be so drunk that someone with less than 0.20 bac would be dead. thats what i did. been sober ever since. had about 1/8 of a drink since june last year.

I've got that hard band of visceral fat that makes it hard to binge-eat like I used to. Not to say I don't get hungry, but I fill up fast and can barely pack in a burger and fries in one sitting without feeling full.
Some days I don't eat at all, or just one meal at the most. Between the fat compression and what I assume is inflammation, I just can't sit down to a gigantic meal like I could back when I started drinking.

No, because no matter what I did she turned it out so that I was to blame. Gaslighted me, basically threatened to commit sudoku if I leave.
