thinking you have no desire ito drink after the first few days is pretty common, at least i felt the same way. (on my 2nd month, also was drinking close to wat you were a day)

the real challenge is going weeks at a time. the boredom becomes unbearable tbh. the only thing keeping me sane is smoking weed all day from the time i wake up, but even with that, every night is just such a drag, I can't be fucked to do anything longer then 20 min without saying fuck this shit is wack and quit and go back to aimlessly browsing 4chan or other bullshit online.

to anyone with experience quitting lengthy periods of time does your ability to stay interested and enjoy things in thing's ever come back ? for the record i have also been doing an hour of cardio daily for the last 2 weeks, but it has not made any difference on my ability to enjoy things.
when i was drinking i could do whatever i wanted for as long as i wanted and stay entertained it was awsome. still trying to find a way to get back to that without drinking, don't know if thats possible only time will tell.

sorry to everyone for the rambling pointless post, i guess it just helps slightly to put put the shit ive been feeling into actual word's.

No, thank you anon. You asked a question that is at the core of the entire reason I don't stop drinking. I've done it a few times. It was easy to not consume alcohol. However, it was also some of the most boring fucking days (or weeks) of my entire fucking life. You fucking nailed it. To a fucking tee.

As comedian Doug Stanhope put it, "boredom is a disease worse than cancer" ...seems a little harsh, but, I'm happily and eager to murder myself in the future for a chance to avoid boredom....and I've got plenty of outlets, but, nothing seems good enough.

unfortunately no.since i started drinkin at about 16 i always drank to get hammed. i don't like being not knowing what im doing can't even see shit cuz my vision is white drunk, but i do enjoy being alot more drunk then slightly buzzed, there's a very certain sweet spot for me that i have figured out after years of drinking.

whenever i try to have only a few drinks, as soon as i stop or run out, i get really angry and will be left in a completely shitty mood, even if im partially buzzed.

as for quitting, im still going strong but just laid in bed from about 10pm-3am (now) trying to get tired by watching a movie and fall asleep and after about 2 hour's of lying in the dark i said fuck this. i really can't stand lying there just endlessly thinking about nothing. i feel like i don't even have flowing thought's anymore, it's just a blank space up there with a few random thought's that trickle out then nothing. makes falling asleep really hard.

Nobody in here is a real alcoholic. They drank a few times, felt depressed, then looked up online the symptoms of years of alcoholic abuse and emulated the patterns from there. End game is funding the rehabilitative industry in hopes of getting people to feel sorry for them with forced sob stories and hopefully free friends that will suddenly fix their social lives.

Sometimes I can go a few days and especially if I get super trashed then the next day I will chill out. But this weekend went on a bender drank a lot of vodka and beer and yesterday I was so fucked up throwing up all day, sweats, shakes. It was not fun.

I went to one once. Everyone was 20 years older than me at the least, except for one incredibly whorish looking 30 something year old girl. Not kidding, she looked like a prostitute.

This is the UK so it wasn't so HURR GOD but the basic "twelve truths" are the same as they were when they were first written (by some american bible basher) so that's where that comes from. In the meeting I went to they basically explained that the basis that AA was founded on was "god" but they do not force it upon you in any way and they tell you to take what you want out of it. Most people prefer "higher power", as in, there is a "higher power" in you that you can use to stop drinking.

They had a whip-round of stories and by the end I didn't really feel like I belonged there. Their stories were terrible, these people had been through hell and back from their drinking. I didn't share, but if I had, it would be basically "I'm 24 I've been drinking 10 beers a night for 3 years straight and nothing has really happened except I've maybe lost a girlfriend because of it."

Also, everyone there had already quit. Some of them had quit for years but still went to AA every week for some reason. I didn't like that because I was and still am very much into my alcoholism. I felt kind of alone as I was basically sat around a group of people who had risen above what I am still suffering with.

I came away from it thinking, while I do still have a problem, I haven't fucked up even half as bad as those people had, but I sure as fuck don't want to end up like them.

I've got a question for you, /alck/.
I'm not huge on alcohol, the only drink I actually like is vodka. Now I'm trying to get into whiskey, since my main gripe with alcoholic drinks is how they try to mask their flavour by bringing in other flavoures (eg wine), but since whiskey has a high amount of alcohol in it already, I feel like I wouldn't have much of a problem with it.

Very this. I went to AA for about a month. (Not for alcohol really, more for other drugs.)
I stopped going cuz even though everyone in this particular group was younger, like 20-30, it just felt like being part of that community was more destructive than flying solo.
Every meeting felt like a pissing contest of who was more fucked up. And strangely, the more fucked up your stories were, the more people liked you.

I get to literally 2 minutes away from the office and I had to pull over and throw up on the side of the road in front of them. Then I dropped them off at work and drove all the way back home and went to bed.

If you still go to parties or social events where people usually drink/get drunk, do you enjoy yourself? If so, how?

When I quit smoking my biggest fear was not enjoying parties anymore because I would have to struggle with the cravings. Which I find ridiculous today because unlike weed or alcohol, it didn't change my mood. If I had to quit both of the two latter, I don't think I could party anymore.

Missed my Anatomy lecture class. Spent the entire period in the bathroom shitting, trying not to puke, and browsing /ck/

Made myself go to the Anatomy lab class an hour and a half later. Got paired up with two cute girls during the lab, get the sweats during class, so scared they would smell the liqour smell.

Excused myself from class and went and puked. Came back and tried to keep away from everyone the rest of the time.

I hated myself the rest of the day, told myself to get hydrated and be productive. Couldn't get feeling right no matter how much food, water, Gatorade or caffeine I had.

Finally broke down and got some Mexican food at a tienda and ordered some beer. As soon as I had the beer in me I'm already back to 100%. I hate myself sometimes.

Am a 12 beer a day alcoholic of the last 5 years.

As of Monday, I've tried tapering it down with the goal of 0 (although I average about 2 drinks). Trying to work out every day, and it really helps with the anxiety, agitation, and deals with the pent up energy. This is obviously a big change from being a galllon of beer couch potato to jogging/lifting every day and having one to unwind at the end of the night.

Today I had a headache, my first withdrawl symptom, so I had to go to my car during work and slam a beer. I.. I think I'm gonna make it. This weekend will be hard...

Well, if people don't mind me spamming the thread...

One year ago, I was hospitalized. I won't bore you with the details, so let's just say I was struck down with a case of having an enormous penis. Several vials of blood were taken for various tests, all of them coming back positive for a magnificent, awe-inspiring dong, which I was already fully aware of. What I didn't expect, however, was the doctor's first question when explaining my results.

"So ... how much do you drink per day?"

I started to answer, but he threw up a hand to stop me and continued, "If you don't stop drinking right now, you'll be dead before you're 40. You're 35, and your liver is already showing signs of shutting down. Then again, the faster all the drunks die off, the more space we free up in this hospital for people with actual medical problems that are beyond their own control." Then he punched me in the face and hobbled out of the room on his cane.

>> No.5784619

>>5784617

So I quit, cold turkey, after 22 years of what could only be called the my penis of alcohol addictions. That was a little over a year ago, and during that time I've discovered some things about quitting booze that they manage to leave out of inspirational movie montages.

#5. The Stench

For the first couple of days, stretching into the first couple of weeks, you sweat your ass off. Even on cold days, you can't keep a shirt dry with all the king's deodorant and all the king's men ... putting that deodorant on for you. (I'm not good with metaphors.)

As your body works overtime to rid itself of toxins, leftover alcohol and its byproducts that are stored in your lymph nodes will begin to seep out through not only your urine, but also your breath and the pores of your skin.

This isn't normal stink. If it was just persistent body odor, you could do something about it. No, this is stink on a demonic level. This is Stinkotronicus: Master of Stinkalarium, and it will make you do its bidding, lest it destroy you and all of those you hold dear. Showers do help, but their effect is very temporary and only seems to provoke it.

>> No.5784621

>>5784619

How bad is it? Another Cracked writer on the wagon (who posts as Yowhound) was actually kicked off of a public bus because of this ... in Europe. They've tolerated the French for thousands of years, but they couldn't handle one bus ride with a recovering alcoholic.

#4. The Nightmares

The stench isn't the end of the world (even if it smells exactly like how you imagine the apocalypse smelling). No, it's the insomnia that's the first major ass-kicker.

For many hardcore drinkers, "going to sleep" and "passing out" mean roughly the same thing. I personally never got black-out drunk, but I always went to bed with a good, deep buzz. I did it so often that my brain got used to the booze as a sleep aid. So much so that when I finally quit and the toxins began to disappear from my body, my brain became more active at bedtime and simply refused to shut down for the night (once more, this is common among detoxing alcoholics). But then, once you finally drift off, is when the fun starts.

That's when you get some of the most frequent and realistic nightmares you've ever experienced. Intense feelings of dread and anxiety thump through your sleeping mind, as if the stench demon decided to drift into your cerebral cortex.

Remember that your brain is not only more active but also in panic mode. It has become so used to having alcohol that it started thinking it was one of your normal bodily fluids. Imagine if you suddenly gave up food, taking all of your nutrients via an IV instead. Even if you were getting everything you needed, for a while your empty stomach would still send out the pain alarm that says, "INSERT FOOD OR YOU WILL DIE, DUMBASS!" The inside of a detoxing alcoholic's head is freaking out in the same manner.

>> No.5784631

>>5784621

One of the most common nightmares among alcoholics is the terrible recurring dream where you fall off the wagon. You fight all day to stay sober, then in your sleep you relapse. So in the dream you now have to explain to the people around you that you slipped. Not only do you feel all of the guilt and shame and frustration while you're dreaming, the feelings stick with you long after you wake up.

Like all the symptoms, it passes. What does not pass so easily is ...

#3. The Poop

It's like my grandma used to tell me: "John, when you really think about it, it all comes down to shitting. Now put in that VHS tape marked '5 Hours of Me Shitting' and I'll show you what I mean." Now, that video was a compilation of several different movements set to the "Moonlight Sonata," but if I had tried to make my own such video the camera's battery would have run out before I finished just one.

Alcohol has calories. Since a whole lot of an alcoholic's caloric intake comes out of a bottle, most alcoholics have very poor diets overall. So for instance, I would eat lunch, but by early evening, food would be replaced with booze. Drinking keeps the stomach busy, and alcohol suppresses the appetite. Then, maybe you binge on tacos at 2 a.m. As millions of college kids can tell you, the following day's result is known as "beer shits."

>> No.5784644

>>5784631

When you stop drinking, you subtract from the body all of those thousands of liquid calories, but now you're hungrier, so you eat to replace them. But a system used to digesting gallons of beer suddenly has pounds of meat and cheese to work on. It'd be like if a normal person spontaneously decided to spend a week slowly eating an entire moose.

The point being, have you ever shit an antler?

Because that's what it feels like. The intestines extract an insane amount of water from your feces, leaving you with a bowel full of granite. For me, this lasted for over a month before my body adjusted, and now I can pass a life-sized statue of the crucifixion through my colon. I'd write more about this, but I'm considering turning it into a book instead, as soon as I can find someone to illustrate it.

#2. The Urge to Murder

The first thing to go during detoxification is the mind. It starts to wander. Short-term memory misfires. The simplest tasks will require as much focus as defusing a time bomb.

There was a day in the first week of my own detoxification when I walked into the living room four times in a row to get my phone, but each time I forgot to pick it up. We've all done that before, right? The difference is that mine was ringing at the time.

Part of this lack of focus is because you're constantly tired from the insomnia/nightmare combination, part of it is the nervous system not having the security blanket of booze it's used to. And with that, came changes in mood.

The smallest things would irritate me into a full-blown rage. Little annoyances, like the person who was sitting at the same picnic table as me who wouldn't stop tapping his leg up and down, shaking the whole contraption. I wanted get a gun and murder him and all of the other people in the world who had failed to murder him up to that point.

>> No.5784647

>>5784644

Some people in that situation may have a few people close to them who sympathize with what they're going through (assuming they connect the bad mood with the alcohol at all, and they may not if they've never tried to quit). But to everyone else, you're just being an unmanageable twat. Fortunately, I still had my friends to make me feel better.

Well, I would have, if it hadn't turned out that most of my friends were in fact just drinking partners. When I told them I was quitting, they'd sort of nervously laugh, waiting for the punch line. Then, they'd respond with a genuinely surprised, "Really? Why?" Then they'd reassure me that I didn't have a drinking problem (because if I had a drinking problem, it meant they had a drinking problem).

That's when I'd find out that drinking was all we had in common. Then they'd start slyly trying to get me to drink, and I'd have visions of punching all of the skin off of their faces. So, for the first couple of weeks I wound up just avoiding people when at all possible. It sounds like a chickenshit way out, but it got me through the first of the bad spots without hurting many people in the process, and I murdered almost nobody.

Once the irritability subsides, you're about to reap the rewards of ...

#1. The Blissful High

For a few days after a person becomes completely detoxed, his body will get an unexpected dose of oxygen, real food and natural chemicals that will put him on a natural high. It's just a symptom, just like the pooping, and likewise it won't last. Truthfully, you don't want it to.

But in the mean time, rainbows will shoot out of your ass, and it will feel like the final scenes of Independence Day. You've overcome your addictions! The alien ships have been destroyed! You just did what they all said you couldn't do!

Except you haven't. There is no finish line with alcohol recovery. Ninety percent of alcoholics relapse within the first four years. There are still shitloads of ships up there, and each one of them requires Randy Quaid to improbably fly into it at the exact moment it attacks with its giant laser beam.

It turns out that drinking doesn't make a person an alcoholic. The part of a person's brain that makes him drink to excess is what makes him an alcoholic, and the mechanism for the addiction is still there. This is why people in 12-step programs say that you'll always be an alcoholic, even if you're not drinking. Alcohol isn't the disease; it's a symptom. Or rather, it's an attempt to self-medicate the disease.

It's hard for people to understand why I can't just downgrade from "alcoholic" to "moderate drinker." There are plenty of people out there who can drink in moderation.

If you're a drunk and have started to realize that your story is going to end with a bunch of your friends telling hilarious drinking stories at your funeral, I promise you that quitting is totally worth it, despite all the bad stuff I described above. I'm one year sober as of last week, and I've never felt better or more proud of myself in my life. And in that year, I have not woken up even one time with a cock drawn on my face.

Functional alcoholic here. I don't volunteer just how much I drink, or how much I spend on alcohol each month. I understand I have an addiction but I'm not going to broadcast that. Of course, everyone drinks sometimes, so I don't have to go out of my way. I maybe take steps to dispose of my empties in a way that my neighbors won't see and think I'm a degenerate. That's about all.

Everyone has their flaws, everyone has something they'd ostensibly want to improve about themselves (but choose not to for whatever reason). I think it's ugly to make these things known for no reason whatsoever. Public displays of weakness and self pity are disgusting.

I entirely disapprove of how negative consumption is portrayed, hence the appropriation of being out of the closet.

I think alcoholism and alcoholic are weaponized phrases, which is why I use the term alcophile.

I also don´t think regular imbibing of alcohol should be viewed as a weakness or a flaw. As long as you keep your shit together you should do what you feel right.

You don't think alcoholism is a thing? Are you some kind of wishy-washy naive hedonist?

I feel the same about alcohol as I do about sexuality. It's nothing to be ashamed of, but it's still disgusting to stick your tongue down someone else's throat in public. Conducting yourself with some basic class isn't the same as "weaponizing" a phrase.

If you order or buy from a store that deals in a lot of sake you should be fine, they wouldn't be likely to sell you a three year old bottle of bad sake.

Regarding whisky in my opinion Japanese whisky is not for cost sensitive drinkers. When it's great it's *great* but expensive (minimum $100). At the lower end it's just priced above its value (just my opinion).

If you want a user friendly cost effective whisky I think tomintoul 16 is decent. It's about the same price as Laga 16 maybe a little less in some places.

I told them I didn't believe in God and I wasn't going to stop drinking, but for the duration of the time I was in the program I wouldn't drink. They said that was fine. So after four weeks of them trying to force me to believe in their God the day finally comes when I would be out of their horrible program. As I'm getting ready to leave they sit me down and ask me to stay for another week; I decline and said I was going to go and pick up a six pack.
