It doesn't work that way. You have to quit slowly over time. Or you have to sub out for other GABA agonists like benzodiapams.

Try to cut your drinking in half tonight then in half again two nights from now until you get down to one drink a night. Then quit completely.

Quitting both at once sounds crazy but works out in the long run.

From my (indirect) experience, the need for cigarettes blots out any other craving.

Not gonna lie to you, 3 months down the line you'll want to test the waters and see if you can drink without hurting yourself. The answer is no.

ive always had mental problems, early abuse in my life, a lot of emotional trauma at a young age, always self harmed as a way to get through problems, when i started to do it it was a tool of punishment for myself, but it slowly changed to be something my life revolved around. had drug and alcohol problems from 13/14 onwards, serious problems with relationships and emotional regulation.
ive not cut for quite a long time now (18 months, think of it as another drug) but when i used to did it, it would be quite extreme, and because it was extreme, it would cause intense pain, and distract my mind from whatever was overwhelming me at the time, due to the pain, having to the treat the wound etc etc. it would bring a very numbing, sensation, a calm in the storm pleasurable in a way. it is very hard to explain without sounding completely batshit insane.

This is it. We've had fallings out in the past but always reconnected, this is the first time I've had them, or anyone, make it patently clear that I am no longer welcome in their life.

I'm unemployed right now so it's hard not to drink. But nowadays when I drink enough to feel good, the next day my body will full-on reject food. I eat a bowl of soup I'll throw up twice.

It's done wonders for my depression and anxiety, but I dunno man

I just feel like what is the fucking point. I've given up drinking for at least 3 months now probably more and all I feel is 'not-depressed'. Ok sure there's no super lows and I don't have horrible unbearable anxiety in the mornings nor do I wake up feeling like absolute shot and have my whole day ruined until I start drinking again

But what's the point of a I king life with no actual fun or excitement or anything to look forward to

I haven't enjoyed anything in so long, I don't look forward to anything, life is a task and a chore and lately I've very seriously been considering going back to alcohol

Or at least better opiates

There's no fun here I am beyond bored it's like this perpetual fundamental emptiness I'm just watching life pass by and it doesn't interest me I don't care

I've really been craving alcohol lately. I finally got my license back the other week after almost two years disqualified for duis I was looking forward to it but when it actually came I felt nothing.

I really want to be in a better place going into my third decade. I have to turn it around. One day at a time is easy when you know that in a few dys or a week you can let your hair down. To do it indefinitely though? It just sounds like a bottomless pit. You have to ask
>Why am I abstaining? What is my endgame here?
And I cannot answer. I want to be sober because:
>My gf
>My kids if/ when I have some
>Being in better shape and thereby raising my social capital

But when I'm feeling weak and when the futility of it all hits me again, I just don't know. And I think it would be really shitty to have kids just to try and keep me sober. I don't want to rehash the mistakes of my parents, and their parents. It's rough, man. It's all rough.

Enjoying some cheap vodka right now.

I've only really noticed recently how used to the taste i've become over the years.

I remember being 18 and thinking that fucking Mike's hard lemonaid had too much of an alcohol taste to enjoy drinking. Now i'm drinking bottom shelf vodka like it's water.

It's kind of worrying me. I guess it's been a long time building up, but the memory just recently came back to me and it was a bit shocking.


Planning on making some lighter peppermint schnapps based drinks. 'Tis the season, and I really like it in hot coco.
I don't really know hoe much I'll have to drink to get even buzzed enough though, and I wouldn't want to overpower the coco taste just to get drunk.

I can probably do shots in between if I'm not feeling anything I guess

I wouldn't say tolerance or how often you drink determines if you're an alky, it's your dependence on it.

I had about the same tolerance when I first started drinking, and I used to be able to drink and not really need to drink again for months and months.

But when I started working really shit jobs, drinking was the only thing that got me through it.

Even now that i'm working a pretty decent job, I still need to drink my weekend away or I get panic attacks during the week.

Even then, sometimes i'll grab beer on the way home to help me fall asleep if i'm too high strung

Just had one. It's a refreshing brew. A more body than American/Mexican/Canadian pisswater, also a little more carbonation. The body is somewhere between a light beer and a good Vienna/amber lager. Refreshing and crisp like a light beer, but with more taste. You can tell it's not a light beer. If you aren't a snob and Lowlife/Bud is 'okay', then this is 'bretty good'.

Okay guys, I have a question for you veterans. When I first started drinking, my stomach seemed to be a lot stronger than it is now. Now it seems that every time I drink I feel like crap afterwards, but I enjoy the way I feel while under the influence. I don't make a habit out of drinking, but I'd like to not feel like shit. Any tips on how to mitigate it besides not drinking at all? I try to get enough water, but it doesn't seem to help.

First night of drinking last night after taking cutting down seriously. Only had 3 beers and 3 bourbons, then I went to bed and woke up fresh this morning.

Quite pleased with myself as sad as that is, hopefully this means I can enjoy alcohol in small amounts at the weekends and stay dry during the week. Makes a change from a bottle of bourbon every 2 days and a fuckload of beer to wash it down with.
