Drinking became great at 15 , drinking started becoming a problem at 20.

I never really enjoyed drinking. When I was 18 - 21 I drank way too much. Was known as the drunk of the group but did it just to cope with my social anxiety and felt no one would like me sober.

Now over a decade later I drink alone and purely to cope with my shitty existence.

I didn't realize it was a problem til my late 20s. Usually made it to work, hangover or not. Could hang onto relationships despite drinking. But all of that stuff would have been so much better without alcohol. I feel like I wasted a lot of years with alcohol holding me back. lots of good years.

I didn't have a drink until around 17. Became a problem right when I was around 19. Was out of highschool, didn't have much to do because I was taking a year off before signing up for community college, had a job but got fired and my local liquor store never carded and anywhere that did I would just get my sister to buy it for me who was a few years older.
Realized how much I enjoy drinking alone rather than with people/at parties and it was just a downhill slope from there.


On a different note, i've been working out on the regular lately and I've got to say how much it helps with hangovers. If I wake up feeling like shit then go for a bike ride I feel way, WAY better when I get back. Sweatin out all that poison I guess

Drinking was great maybe several months after I tried it when I was 17. Realized I was charismatic as fuck with a couple in me, whereas normally I was captain dweeb.

I was exhausted and had spasms in my lower back all day after. Just before it I felt wonky but it felt like I relaxed into it, kind of like going to sleep - there was no choice. I only faintly remember being wheeled elsewhere with them trying to bring me to - pressing on my sternum and rubbed an ink pen against my thumb cuticle.

As for severity, these were considered medically serious. They tested me for several things, and determined I was not epileptic but the seizures were from alcohol.

They weren't the worst. Afterward I felt like the most shit I've ever felt. BP was high and my heart rate was > 100 for a day or so.

The worst part of being a disgusting alcoholic is pissing in bottles because you need the toilet too much to bother getting up every 20 minutes and the sick you cover with a towel for your future self to deal with (but you don't).

I'm clean just over a month and I cannot fathom how I let myself get that bad looking back. I don't even know how I had the will power to clean my apartment which was literally a floor of vodka, cider and coke bottles with piss stains and chunks of vomit on the floor, yet I'm sitting here now rubbing soap over my body every few hours to stop this fungal rash all over my body, and am cleaning everything every 2 minutes.

I think the damage has already been done though. I'm constantly getting infections, blood in my piss and when I take a shit there's always blood. I'm still trying though, because I look back and now look at my surroundings and it nearly makes me cry. Just having a clean floor and not dry heaving every minute at the thought of downing smother of disgustingly cheap vodka

I'm a psychiatry resident. So I know it's not nearly as much as other addicts drink, but it's more than I want, and I can't stop. I gained 40 pounds the last year between the wine and the eating that comes with it.

The thing is I'm so close now I almost think I should just hit 30 and become one. I can talk to girls just fine but I can't form relationships with them at this point. Another factor is my libido is much lower than it used to be. When I was a teenager I was ravenous for sex, but I had untreated problems with anxiety and depression because I kept denying them fearing the stigma.
I actually feel much better than I used to even though I'm pretty miserable (I assure you it was worse when I was younger even though I seemed to have more of my faculties about me in youth), but it's been so long I can't see myself fucking just for the sake of losing my virginity. It sucks because occasionally I will see a chick and know that she's hot but nothing clicks on these days like it used to where I really want to pursue her. Even back then when I felt that charge I didn't know how to go about it.

Started drinking at 14 and thought it was great straight away. I loved talking to girls and I had a lot of success thanks to drink. Gradually I felt like the alcohol was starting to control me as opposed to vice versa. Around 19 I realised it was a problem.

No longer was I being the funny drunk of the group, I was starting to be creepy. Groping girls, starting fights with bouncers (got my head caved in once). Lost my friends because I was being such a creep when I was drunk, doing the most regrettable shit. Started drinking alone when I turned 20. I don't drink to offset anxiety anymore but just to offset the soul crushing boredom I'm faced with daily. My favourite songs I normally can't listen to suddenly become so fun to listen to.

I've realised I'm turning into a sad alcoholic. I'm a loner now and my body is fucked up. I used to be interested in music, even passionate about it but that has fell to the wayside.

I drink anything I can get my hands on but beer is my favourite I guess

Still cheaper than Norway, you won't find sixpack of half litres cheaper than 17 USD here. And booze is a lot worse. The taxes are stupid plus you can't buy anything stronger than 4.7% in regular stores, anything stronger than that is only sold in state controlled monopoly stores which are only open until 6 pm weekdays, 3 pm saturdays and not at all on sundays. Plus the sale of alcohol in regular stores close 8 pm on weekdays and 6 pm on saturdays.
At least Sweden has a worse sale system though their alcohol is cheaper, in regular stores you can only buy something called folkol (people's beer) which is 3.5% at the most, and anything else has to be bought at similar monopoly places. Denmark is good though, I wish I lived there.

Dogs are great things

When I was a teenager, I lived in a very rural place
One day when my family and I were coming home, one of my dogs didn't come out to greet us on the lawn
When we went inside, he slowly came to us
He had porcupine spines all over his face
He didn't hide, just was slow to come to us
He wanted help and he knew we could do it
Some dogs are violent when they're hurt
But he went to us calmly

I stayed with him in the back of the car all the way to the vet.
He was in pain but calm.
We had to leave him there overnight
Looking back, that probably broke his heart that we left.
When we picked him up the next day, he was very happy.

He was a good dog.
Jesus, I shouldn't think about my dogs when I'm drunk

Don't do sumo
It's cheating
It's a squat that's called a diddly

A proper DL involves a large amount of hip hinge
Sumo takes out the hinge and replaces it with quad activation
Do back squats or sumo.
Never both.

But yeah, I also wanted to reach multiple pl8 squat and DL
Roughly 1.5 and 2.5 on each.
Nearly there

My bench is severely pathetic though. I just can't make progress. My entire upper body is pathetic. It sucks so much.

I've always hated the taste of alcohol, so I didn't actually start drinking until 3 or 4 years ago at 28. Even then, I only do shots in between water/other beverages.

I used to only drink once in a while when I spent the night with friends, but nobody seems to have time anymore, so now I tend to drink alone on the weekends while I'm playing vidya or watching Netflix. I feel kind of shitty about it, but after a long week of work and bullshit, having some time alone to get buzzed and chill with a pizza is hard to resist.

I'm a big guy with a lot of tolerance, but I've realized I can easily kill a liter of Bacardi 151 by myself in two nights.
