I'm hungover as fuck and thinking about drinking a bit to balance out, the last time I did this I wound up being drunk for 3 days straight. But I think I can handle myself this time. Good idea y/n?

No. Not a good idea. Past behaviors are a good prediction of future actions.

I cut myself off this evening after four tall cans, on another note. Gaining better control of my life. I wasn't a full-blown drunk but it was starting to head that way. This thread made me realize that.

Hey guys I just learned a new trick for myself. Others might know this but I'll post it anyway.

I wanted to get a bottle of wine open in a hotel room but didn't have any access to a corkscrew.

Hold the bottle sideways, and forcefully "tap" the bottom of the bottle against the face of a couch arm. Just keep doing it for a while and the pressure will start forcing the cork out so you'll be able to just pull it out the rest of the way.

Cheers.

Further - I'm getting married in a month. Instead of buying 160 bottles of wine, I made it. 35 fucking gallons.

If I went to the store, that'd be $1,700 to $2,250.

My cost? $320 and 6 hours of work.

It'll take far longer than a couple months. You'll feel better in awhile. Your body still needs to adapt to living without alcohol. After it does and you get some type of balance, your mind will start healing itself. Devote yourself to something.

i used to drink a pint of 100 proof smirnoff every night with a couple of beers, but i've weened off and have been drinking just once a week on either saturday or sunday, depending on my work schedule. it's been great, but the first 2 weeks, i wanted to kill myself, and had heart palpitations and some panic attack like breathing problems while trying to sleep. i also noticed some caffeine sensitivity. around day 15-16 i started feeling fine, though.

It's just a battle of willpower. There a few things that can make it a little easier though:

Find things to keep your mind occupied: hobbies, books, movies, whatever. Something that if you're bored won't make you think about or be tempted to drink.

Eat lots of food, seriously. Eat to the point you can't possibly eat any more. I find if my stomach is totally full to the point of or almost at the point of discomfort I have absolutely no desire to drink.

Build new habits to replace your drinking routines. If you found yourself coming home and watching a certain show or listening to certain music or something do not do this sober. It will just remind you of booze and tempt you to drink.

i feel like i need to drink all the time or not at all
like i dnt get hangovers any more but just terrible terrible anxiety the next day. like tight, painful chest, manually breathing, blurry vision, panicky thoughts, etc, until i can get drunk again and then it goes away

but obviously this is no way to live. it would be ideal to give it up for good but i feel like it's essential for pretty much all social activity amongst the people that i know

i try doing stuff like just going and having like two drinks but even as the effects of the alcohol start to wear off i feel the anxiety creeping in, so i have to have another and before i know it it's 2am and i'm wasted with work the next day

i have gone for periods of like a week before without drinking and, after the first 3 days or so, i feel fantastic, but then i get invited to something and i can't help myself

Need up in the hospital a couple weeks ago with an atrial flutter heart pattern and severe anemia. Doctor said I probably have major GI bleed somewhere and ordered a scope down my throat and a colonoscopy. Scope revealed minor bleeding in stomach, colonoscopy is happening sometime next week. I'm still severely anemic, can barely climb a flight of stairs without feeling faint and dizzy with high heart rate. I shit blood multiple times per day. I am severely depressed and suicidal whenever I'm not drinking.

Well, off to buy another couple bottles of wine. Drink up, /ck/....

Today is my last day drinking. Probably for about 3 months give or take. I have a shit ton of interviews this month and my first one is next week. The DTs should only last through the weekend, so I should be fine.

Wish me luck.

I've been on a 4 month bender, so I'm not too far gone yet, but I've gained about 20 pounds, have abdominal pain and nausea everyday, and have noticed my memory and mental health has gone down the shitter.

Managed to be a drunk idiot and contracted gonorrhea and haven't done anything about it because supposedly you can't drink after taking the pills for it. I-I'll get it together before it's too late...

Hey why the fuck can't normies get off my dick for drinking a lot?

I'm not even an alcoholic, I just like to get shitfaced once or twice a week by my own because my working times allow it and I have to deal with my anxiety issues and loneliness somehow. It's just the way it works for me and it doesn't affect my daily routine (I'm a productive guy) or rare social interactions.

You judging me just makes me want to drink more you fucking asshole. Just leave me be, I'm fine.

I remember when I was at the very cusp of my blazing alcoholic days, back when it was still enjoyable, and I would drink all night. I'd usually pass out around midnight then wake up a couple hours later and continue the drinking basically until the sun would come up...It would always catch me off guard because I didn't realize how much time was passing and being wasted while I was continuing to get fucked up.

It's weird I have a small nostalgia for those times, because I'd end up sleeping a few hours, wake up, and start drinking again. All fucking weekend.

Mondays used to SUCK. I never want to go back to those times

That's what addiction is though. There is a reason why only a small minority of drug users for any given drug become addicts. Part of being an addict is irrational behavior.

>Benzos are very similar but much, much better for your liver/stomach.
Sure, but arguably they lead to cognitive problems quicker, and have a more protracted withdrawal due to their half life. Although both severe alcoholism and benzo addiction can lead to life-threatening withdrawal, it is easier to get to that point with benzos. Especially since most people's first foray with them is through a doctor's prescription for their anxiety. In the long run I would argue that alcohol is worse in a sense since it's the only recreational drug that will lead to the degeneration of myelin. But the differences are so small you're effectively handicapping yourself for life with an addiction to either.

Regardless, you can laugh at the people here who have massive physical problems from prolonged alcoholism, but one form of therapy with a (relatively) high success rate for addiction is the combination of positive reinforcement (e.g. addicts relating to each other over their drug consumption) and perceiving the negative health effects. This is the most well studied in tobacco addiction for example, where the therapist will say things along the line of "Oh that's great that you smoke it must feel great, and provide such social benefits and all that, it's a worthwhile price for cancer, COPD etc...". Of course, the therapist will be more subtle than my example.

I do think these threads are valuable to the addicts who browse it, though I'm no clinician (But I sometimes work with them).

I hide bottles of rye throughout my house and take sneaky swigs when my girlfriend isnt around, and then when she goes to bed i get hammered. This is really unhealthy for our relationship and my health as ive been drinking about 300ml a day for 3 years.

Im thinking of switching to something more quantifiable and less abv. Like maybe have a case of tallboys in the fridge, and after 2 a night my girlfriend would probably call me out.

Does anyone have experience on switching from hard stuff to beer? My biggest fear is the buzz wearing off too quickly and when that happens i get anxious and agitated.

I told this girl who I could not get it up with last month because she was fat and a total slut who fucked over 100 guys that the reason why I stopped talking to her is because I am not attracted to her.

I'm this Anon; Ended up getting very drunk that night, smashed half a bottle of bourbon and a good 15+ beers. It's now 6:00am Saturday morning Australia and I'm planning on going on a decent bender this weekend. Starting drinking with an alcoholic mate of mine at 12:00pm and drinking all through the afternoon and seeing where it takes us. Most likely going to pass out and continue drinking when i wake up early Sunday morning.

This thread has really turned into my personal blog. Any other young people here who know they're slowly turning into an alcoholic but don't really care? I'm not even depressed, there's just no other substance that gives me the same feeling as alcohol. Three years ago I would get drunk once a fortnight when going out with friends, by 19 I was drinking alone in my room once a week in conjunction with going out, now that I'm 21 I'm drinking heavily 3-4 times a week. This is my last year of university and I haven't worked full time yet, and I'm scared that I'll be forced to stop drinking once I do. Anyone a "functional" alcoholic here who works a decent full time job? I need a little inspiration.

Couldn't agree more. After going on benders for a 2-3 days, I'll wake up feeling weird. Then I'll get panicky thoughts, feel my heart beating faster, feeling really guilty. Never happened until recently and I've been drinking pretty heavily on and off for 5 years. Not sure why it started.

I used to binge for a few weeks and just woke up with hangovers. Now I never get hangovers, just this anxiety bullshit.

2 months sober here. I REALLY wanna get drunk, but at the same time I feel so good every day its amazing. Instead of waking up for work every morning hung over and hating every minute of the day until I could drink, I've gone to the gym nearly every morning and feel awesome throughout the day.

I just stopped taking antabuse a couple days ago and am planning on drinking in a couple hours. I was only on 250 mg, and I only took it for about a week, so hopefully drinking won't fuck me up too much.

I have a new system that I think will help me keep my drinking under control. I'm only going to drink light beer, and I'm only going to start at 1:00 a.m. I live in a state where alcohol sales aren't allowed after 2:00 a.m., so by the time I get the urge to go out and get more, I'll know it's too late. And I'll only buy enough beer to get drunk, but not black out drunk (a twelve pack of Miller Lite). That way, I'll finish it all and will have none left when I wake up, so I can't turn the binge into a bender. And I'll only allow myself to do this Friday and Saturday night.

Wish me luck!

I don't know if this is even the right place to ask because I assume most people here are more alcoholic than me. But I'm wondering; is it possible to reduce cravings for alcohol by having fewer drinking sessions? (By session I mean binge because I always drink until I don't want to drink anymore, and that's NOT after only a few beers) I usually get alcohol cravings mid-week but I'm now trying to reduce it to only drink once a week. Will this work so eventually I won't feel the urge to drink more than once every week or is it doomed to always go in one direction: one wanting it more and more?

Well, it worked pretty well. Got drunker than I expected off ten light beers (on an empty stomach), so I've decided that from now on it's just going to be ten light beers, not a twelve pack.

I'm set for tonight, got a date in the evening, then when I get home I start drinking at 12:30. Then not again until next Friday.

Yes, work until 5, maybe do something like work out, mow lawn, make dinner or a combination of them. Then drink light beer.

I used to drink good beer, but that hurt my wallet, so I settled on Miller High Life. Then I went back to my high-school roots of Busch Light when I realized that 3 'schlights equal 2 high lifes in both calories and abv, so I just always have those on hand.

Saturday and Sunday seem to be lost causes unless I have something to do, though.

From all my experiences--and I'm not much older than you--I'd say that there's no such thing as a functional alcoholic. You either mainly stay sober and fuck up every once in a while as an in-between, or you stay drunk and lose everything. Functional alcoholism is a TV drama meme.

My family tree is basically a grape bush, and it's the same thing over and over. Let me tell you that the idea that a functioning alcoholic isn't going to fuck up and have compromised judgement at some point is horseshit. You can't follow some sort of set of principles with discipline if you can't even keep yourself from becoming a full-blown addict.

If you're worried that your drinking is going to fuck with you working regular hours, it's a good time to cut down. If you're worried that working regular hours is going to interfere with your drinking, then it's a good time to consider going to rehab. If you want inspiration, a thread of mutually-feeding alcoholics probably isn't the place to get it.

And I'm telling you this as someone who's easily a borderline alcoholic.

at home drinking and cooking tonight. smashed 7 boring ipas and smoked half a pack of lights then finally got the motivation to cook.

drinking: a juicy italian red; farnese fantini primitivo puglia $14 but its half decent. got a $15 bottle of valpollicela up next and a bunch of ale and port on hand if I get sick of wine

cooking: seared pork cutlets salt and white pepper rub, red onion marmalade with above mentioned wine, half a cinnamon stick, a couple cardamon pods and a small star anise pod (plus a bit of salt, corn starch and demura sugar to thicken and balance flavour), blanched skinned cherry tomatoes assorted varieties in apple cider vinegar, steamed green beans with lemon, new nugget yellowflesh potatoes (i think yukon gold), butternut squash with butter and a dusting of demura sugar. might make a port poached pear for dessert but I don't have any decent pipe tobacco on hand to match it with

sorry for the blogpost, just kinda lonely. sick of people IRL after managing a large agricultural operation all week. Most weekends I just wanna get drunk, hang out with my dog and cook. tell me what I should spice things with or call me a CANDYASS or whatever.

Kind of a waste, I habituated myself to drinking for grad school interviews and conferences, and I drank 3-4 drinks a couple times a week in the months preceding to habituate myself to it since alcohol isn't my drug of choice. It worked.

I guess the point I was trying to make was drink a bit, but space it out and don't get wasted.

Also experiment with things like b vitamins and alpha lipoic acid when you drink and when hungover to see if that helps.

Dunno what it is about alcohol. I've tried like 30 drugs and alcohol I just can't walk away from even though it's easily had the worst impact on my life both psychologically and physically, and socially by FAR

There's just nothing like that feeling of euphoric relaxation and merryment

I need to quit drinking but i can't imagine a life without it. I am so depressed and anxious and alcohol cures it

One time I was fucked up on rum in punta Cana and my friend had to carry me back to the hotel room. When we got there he found some guy we didn't know asleep in our closet. So naturally he threw the guy into bed next to me. He left in the morning without talking to either of us.

Psychiatrists who treat/think alcoholism is the primary issue you are having are garbage. Enjoy your shit vistaril because you can't ever be trusted. Meanwhile you start drinking again because their shit drugs are shit, they regularly don't help you and they can't help you any further or it will make them feel bad.

When picking a psychiatrist and psychologist. .. if they have an extensive ongoing substance abuse treatment background, be prepared to look elsewhere. Look for someone with at least 10yr experience too, but not so old that they fall asleep during your appointment. Shop around for someone who actually helps and doesn't say 'you're an addict- cope and here's some super weak benedryl. LOL addict scum.'

Not really sure how to describe it, only had it a few times and it was always mixed, plus I was always already drinking for a while by the time I had it. Not offensive from what I recall. Honestly though from what I remember Henny is the only brand of cognac I can recall people having at their house or at parties or whatever. Not saying it's the best by any means, just seems to be an acceptable brand to the people who drink cognac generally.

Anyone else have really odd sequences they only realize is fucked up until you stop and actually think about it?

Example. I work night shifts. I'm leaving in 30 minutes. I'm pretty tired and can fall asleep pretty quick if I wanted to but the only thing I am really contemplating is whether or not I should drink and play video games when I get home. Despite it being gym day and making sure some loose ends get closed today.

Only thing that matters is my booze.

My life is 4chan, and immersing myself in as much music as I can, which is useful because I'm studying music.

I don't smoke, and I've managed to make it that I'll be able to spend around £18-25 on food every week, leaving a fair amount of money free.

I'm just scared I'll fall into drink. I'm a bottle of red in already (it's 10 am in the UK) and my only limiting factor is my parents getting home from work.

Damn son, I started drinking when I was 18, but I don't think I got to a full bottle of wine in a night until I was 21 maybe, and never drank in the morning until I was 23 and that's when I truly hit full blown alcoholism. I'm about to be 27 now.

I drink beer because I drink hard liquor at the same pace I drink beer.

That means I pass out in like two hours where as with beer I get to enjoy nursing a buzz for about 12 hours until I'm so drunk I have to go to bed.

It makes me chubby but at least I don't get the drink pass out wake up 4 hours later drink pass out rinse repeat cycle that gives me killer WDs.

im a hard liquor drinker and always wonder how people like you drink beer? not trying to sound offensive here im just genuinely curious because when I drink beer I feel bloated and full after like 3 beers and barely tipsy. I just can't imagine getting drunk off beer because i'd probably have to drink an insane amount to actually get comfortably drunk it would be up to my eyeballs
I mean, I guess thats probably just because im a binger and my tolerance is out of whack but still

Quitting is difficult yes but you've got to think about how good you will look after you've quit. Use that as motivation. I was looking at a picture the other day of myself when I was drinking hard. I was so chubby and had that whole frog throat thing going on like I was pablo escobar, looked in the mirror and was just so glad I made that change. I still come into these threads because hey its all ingrained in all of us right. Even though I stopped drinking daily I still fly off the handle sometimes and when I wake up and look at myself I can tell. I always tell people with drinking problems like myself that you dont have to quit indefinitely. Its normal to drink on the weekends, its normal to drink too much sometimes, but if you're not doing that all the time its an achievement especially if you used to have a drinking problem. And dont refer to yourself as an alcoholic if you quit drinking, that is the dumbest fucking thing i've heard from AA and NA and all that shit. Thats just basically saying hey I used to have a drinking problem and keep reminding yourself that you did.
