how long have you been waiting for someone to create an alc thread?

[Anonymous No.5685452]

Not as long as you, OP.

Reading through those threads makes me feel better about my life, though, so godspeed.

2 days dry.. oh man the shakes, the fucking shakes!

im so socially withdrawn that it isnt even amusing.. im hardly moving out of bed unless i have to.

[Anonymous No.5685515]

The mods deleted the last one I made so I didn't bother to make another.

>>5685510
I know that feel. I'm going on 2 days myself. My withdrawals were so shit last night/this morning but I'm feeling a lot more calmer now. I dread tonight though, I'm afraid it'll happen again.

If you get the shakes get some Gatorade. It's largely because of the drop in electrolytes.

Alcohol is my only friend now. My parents don't listen to me, my friends don't respect me, and I have no social life. I have to drink in secrecy and I can only get alcohol in very small windows at certain times during the week so I spend most of the time in agonizing sobriety.

Anyone else an alcoholic with taste in quality Whiskey? I usually drink a bottle in two days, but the other night I poured a glass and realized I poured way past the half point of the bottle and that there wouldn't be enough for me to drink the next night, so I just drank the entire bottle in a single sitting. It was a $70 bottle of Whiskey.

[Anonymous No.5685728]

>>5685726
nice - what bottle?

[the_boar No.5685745]

this is appropriately timed. I spent the weekend drinking apple pie moonshine and bookers bourbon. I suffered the last 24 hours with the worst hangover Ive ever had. Could barley walk, hallucinations, shakes, fever, and bad anxiety attacks. drank nearly two gallons of water which did barley anything. felt human this afternoon, so Im just having a few IPAs to get back to "normal". Thank god I work with nothing but English alcheys who cut me some slack at work.

>family is full of alcoholics

yup. on my moms side at least everyone is beer drunks and winos. nobody on my dads side will touch the stuff, at all. I inherited the alcoholic tendencies and am hoping the genes from dads side will help me keep it under control.

deep down I know thats all bullshit though and I drink because I am not controlling myself like I should, it has little to do with my moms whole side of the family being a bunch of lushes. at least I get along better with them, I guess. we just all get drunk and have a good time.

In a world where Robin Williams kills himself

the only thing left to do is turn to the bottle

[Anonymous No.5685834]

>>5685806
not fucked at all, thank god. by roll of the dice I've been gifted with excellent health. from my first day of kindergarten through my last day of highschool I never missed a day of school or really got sick. I drink hard liquor every evening and never get sick or miss work, I've actually changed my diet and workout program and have gotten in a lot better shape. people tell me I look five years younger than I am.

the only times I feel like shit is when I don't get drunk in the evening. not trying to sound like I'm bragging, this shit sucks. I know that since my health is so good that by the time it finally catches up with me I'll be deep deep in the shit.

[Anonymous No.5685836]

>>5685809
Yeah, well...that's all I drink. Pretty much just straight cheap vodka chased with water (or nothing at all) and sometimes maybe something else.

Man, we don't know if he actually killed himself yet. The media ALWAYS jumps the gun on this shit and acts like it's fact. They're still doing an autopsy. This is the same shit they did with Heath, Brittany and Michael; all immediately screamed fucking suicide.

The media is so retarded.

I want to drink so bad right now because of RW. I'm so fucking sad about it, he's always been one of my favorites, fuck. I'm on day 14 of not drinking, though. I CAN'T fuck up now. I'm doing so good. I'm really screwed, drinking is how I've always dealt with grief or pain. WAT DO. Ugh....why did he have to go and die like that.

[Anonymous No.5685877]

>>5685858
instead of drinking for him you should dedicate your two week sobriety to him and not drink tonight. he also struggled with the sauce and successfully went through rehab and got clean. don't fall off anon.

I could really go for a few drinks though. I don't have a drop of alcohol around me.

[Anonymous No.5686461]

I did that last night. It was so hard. I didn't really go through withdrawals per-say, but I really wanted a glass of whiskey.

But tonight! I have beer and gin. And I'm going to sit here and watch The Slayers while drinking a beer boot of EPA.

I wasn't going to but then I did :(

I had a good three months of sobriety this winter, I was feeling so goddamm superior. but this summer it's been escalating and now I'm back in full al/ck/oholic lifestyle again.

[Anonymous No.5686469]

had a pint bottle of whisky this afternoon before work. then had two beers at work (i work in a restaurant with lazy managers, so i just pull my own beers). just got home and on my first beer.

tomorrow before work i'll probably buy a fifth of whiskey that should last me all day and night

Cheap Bacardi is my water. My fiance teases me because all I ever want to drink when we get drunk is rum, preferably Bacardi white.

Everything else (except perhaps, top shelf gin) makes me sick or leaves a bad taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of. Even good vodka leaves a horrible taste on my tongue that the most cloying, garlicky, spicy food can't cover.

i hate it, I rotate between 5 or so. normally I'm really affable and like to have conversations with people at stores but I feel shame at the liquor store. the worst is when I go to the Asian run liquor store for 1/5 of my bourbon supply and the qt jumps up and yells "ayyyyy, OLD CROW!!! TOO LONG, TOO LONG SINCE YOU COME!!" jesus christ. I am shame, if only she knew.

I'm with you bro. I'm on day 15 of not drinking, and while I haven't actually weighed myself, my ankles, wrists, hands, stomach, and face are all noticeably thinner. It's water weight, being an alchie keeps you bloated (edema). I can't wait to see how much actually weight I really drop from quitting in a year or so. The last time I quit drinking (4 years ago was when I started again), I lost a total of 38 pounds.
