Al/ck/ alcoholics

its all so tiresome.

>Have had weeks where the only times of sobriety I remember have been spent on the shitter, letting out hours of slop before blacking out again.
Does anybody else feel sorry for their neighbours?

Let's hear the friday night plans

gonna buy some weed
will probably smoke it

Drink
Drank
Drunk

its a dangerous part of alcoholism. eviction is a real threat to us.

Can you even imagine being a homeless alcoholic? I think I’d kill myself day 1

I'm a student working on my PhD; So I am really getting a kick out of most of the replies and comments in these threads. Some of you guys are very good at making it sound like you know what you are talking about. But trust me.... you don't. I think that most of you just want to make yourself sound smart, when in reality you don't know what it is you are talking about. This is how bad info gets passed around. If you don't know about the topic....Don't make yourself sound like you do. Because some people here are young and impressionable/believe anything they hear.

More like a PhD in gayness amirite?

what a fucking moron

ive been homeless for a total of 11 months. two different times. 8 months once, 3 months the last time. being flat broke makes it easy to be realtively sober. you definitely cant afford to stay drunk unless you sell your ass or mouth to scumbags and serial killers (which i didnt do)

to be honest, in terms of relative stability, those were good days. mostly sober, mostly healthy. the only thing that made it horrible is lack of privacy. you never get time alone. no peaceful space to jerk off, no peaceful sleep. but other than that, having no money really lessens your alcohol intake.

people with only booksmarts are useless. the good councilors ive dealt with have plenty of experience with real addicts as well as book knowledge. people like you who are still in the learning process have nothing to offer anyone but cringy rhetoric

You're all wonderful human beings and I love each and every one of you.

I literally can’t stop shitting

Help me I think I have an STD!

fuck off fagot

Literally every STD is treatable by a doctor now. Many of them can even be cured.
Why are you asking Veeky Forums for help?

Also; am I the only alcoholic here who isn't also hypersexual? you guys seem to stick your dick in absolutely anything.

le edgy Veeky Forums man

I've sworn off all physical contact and relationships

>22 years old and still living in fucking university campuses like a loser

I know that feel bro.

I wouldn't go that far. Don't have kids, though.
I've nothing against addicts as long as they avoid having kids.

agreed

enjoy your personal hell on earth just dont pass it along.

prob reveals my identity a bit if anyone reads this but

10 years ago, in 24 hours, to the exact hour, a dude killed himself on the university in the exact building I'm living in while he was drunk

Wat do to memorial?

Might as well post a link to prove that it's legit

oops too late

There's an antibiotic resistent strain of gonorrhea that I might have contracted from a prostitute. Untreated chlamydia/gonorrhea can damage your balls and make you sterile.

This, celibacy is great. Way less drama.

Omfg it’s so shit being b& from driving. Second time, so even after the 3yr ban has passed I can’t get it back without being assessed and approved by a Doc, to whom I have to prove that I no longer drink. Just bought a fucking 2014 car in December 2015 and got banned 7 months later. Fuck walking. Fuck.

>implying

what are you implying here?

stop buying cars and just learn to take the bus you loser. i have 3 dwis. never gonna own a car again.

It is way less drama. I'm not saying pretty girls aren't pretty or fun to fuck or cuddle with, but it does come with a bunch of obligations.

Drink and forget my wife just separated from me yesterday.
My foster brother and his lil brother is going to come over Saturday night at least so I can give them proper male haircuts.
I broke into his house drunk this morning to sit down and be sad.
He kicked me out an hour later but I have tomorrow to look forward to.
Do not want to talk to my wife right now as she has nothing but angst towards me.

have a drink at the window he fell through

Quit fucking fat hookers then.

23 been drinking every day since I turned 21. Been drinking pretty heavily since 13 (everyone in my house drank and everyone in my family drinks), what am I in for? Already lost my gf of 5 years because of it

Suicide or self-destruction (slow suicide)

I've already got a long history with suicide attempts. Made 11 attempts between the ages of 6-15. I just can't handle being sober, i think it's because i've been medicated aince I was 6. I just can't even go to a hospital for help because I start freaking out inside when I walk through the corridors. As I'm getting older to I'm starting to have flashback of being in psych wards and it fucking sucks

>Made 11 attempts
attention whore

lmao he’s such a failure he can’t even killhimself

Flashbacks at 23 wew lad.

Then you have two other options
Because you can either: Better yourself and quit wasting your life. Life is a gift don't be a that person to squander this gift.
or Kill yourself and embrace the sweet release of death.
If I didn't have some responsibility and some things to take care of I would go full Wildman and act a fool till I died.
But I have a wife who separated yesterday with the asking that I better myself.
You are a faggot who refuses to better themselves.
Go either better yourself/ give up and get on psychiatric drugs or/ kill yourself
Attentionwhore

Drunk again. I'm sorta in wd's. I'm like, fucking wasted. SEDN HELP.

lol 11 attempts?
Are you too stupid to know how to kill your self?
Attention whoring faggot.
Get it right the first time or 2 or forever be a worthless faggot.

Just give up and die, you are pathetic.
Or become something worthwhile and quit acting like a "suicide" attempt is gonna make you less sad.
Either kill yourself or don't. Don't half ass it.

you can always call an ambulance if it gets bad. i mean, if you are drunk and also going through withdrawals it sounds pretty dire.

I always had people in my house and was found, I only had access to trash bags, wires, and sleeping pills. I was a kid dude, I'm sure I can do it now if I actually wanted to. I just actually have my own views and beliefs now and I don't think suicide is worth it anymore. I hope you die from texting and driving you fucking faggot.
And that shit's fucked for a kid man, I just wish my parents tried to help me in a way that wasn't just shipping me off for months. It sucks being held down and having a shot put in your ass and then being locked in a room til you pass out

I don't get what it is about suicide that triggers you fucks. I get that you don't know or care about me. I just hope your children try that shit and you just let them kill themselves, the only reason I just made attempts is because I don't have the balls to slit my throat and every time my parents found me they were in time to save me. Or just bring your kid back and tell them to try harder next time. You pussies wouldn't

Meh. I don't do hopsitals. I'll just die in the floor

-Gin Blossoms from the motherboard guy

Sorry your shits so fucked m8

Hey lads I have some tanquerary from a friend, what are some super simple recipes I can make with it? Aka what's one mixer I can buy for a decent drink. I have oranges too if that matters.

And yes I've had gin and tonic before, I wasn't really a fan

step 1: open bottle
Step 2: Drink from it.
Luxury, totally optional step 3: chase it with grapefruit juice.

My ex-stepdad is an alocoholic and it’s obliterating the relationship he has with my sister and I (I’m 21, shes a teenager). He divorced my Mom about a year ago, but I’ve known him since I was a baby and I do love him sincerely. Having gone through a rocky experience with my own bio-dad which resulted in a loss of contact, however, it pains me to see the same thing happen to my younger sister. I want to help my stepdad and talk to him about it, but we’ve never spoken about his alcoholism in person once, not once in the 20 years I’ve known him.
His current girlfriend enables him immensely and his mother cleans his house and gives him money. Any time my sister says she doesn’t want to go over he gets upset because he thinks our Mom is just turning us against his new gf (which is retarded, she’s not).
Is there anything I can fucking do? I have this feeling in my gut that something awful will be happening soon. He’s overweight, constantly drinking, and his relationship with my youngest sister is going down the shitter.
What the fuck do I do?

It's cool now. Is it wrong to think my addictive personality is directly linked to me being medicated since I was 6? I'm more trying to find a reason why I hate being sober

Holy shit just took 1mg xanax. Half our ago I was shakey, sweating, and felt like my heart would give out any second. I now feel totally fine. What a godsend for those of us trying to quit. Highly recommended.

please for the sake of yourself be careful and if anything happens phone an ambulance

My wife is an md, she's the one who scribed it for me.

yeah that shit is magical. even if you get drunk for the next 2 days you'll still feel cosy. assuming you don't die. and only until you get addicted to that too. but still. cosy.

gin and juice
gin and tonic
gin and carbonated water
gin and white soda

>Is there anything I can fucking do?

Not really. I mean, about the best you can do is explain to him that his alcoholism is making your relationship with him, and with his daughter, impossible.

He probably already knows that, however, on some level.

Whether it makes a difference or not is up to him really. The only person who can fix it is him.

didn't get drunk all week so I just bought a shitload of wine because I'm fucking stupid

so do you generally want flavorless mixers so the taste of the gin comes out more?

how is gin and (gin)ger ale?

>gin and carbonated water
add some lime and you have a delicious Gin Rickey

Last time I tried to take xanax while going through WD's it made things worse. It made my heart race like crazy and I don't think it had ever pounded that hard either, even during WD's.

my favourite kind of friday

I don't intend to drink, this is strictly a short term taper. I really want to stop. I was only drimking to make the feeling that I was about to die go away for a while. Not even fun anymore.

Thing is, it's so, so much easier to stop if you have benzos that there's little incentive to stop you from relapsing. I've been using the delicious little fuckers for 17 years now. Hugely addicted to them as well as booze.

Well..it's obviously not that much easier to stop, seeing how you haven't and now you're addicted to benzos as well.

benzos dont make your heart pound like crazy. you probably took a caffeine pill.

Benzos won't make a blind bit of difference to your ability to stop long-term, it just gets you through the acute stage.

>got home from work an hour ago and already on the 7th beer.
I see bed pissing in my future

I am scared! What do I do? Are my balls going to shrivel up?

Has anyone here had chlamydia/gonorrhea before?

This is way too much for me I might need to drink tonight...

I used to finish a six pack of tall boys just on the car ride home from work. Wasn't that long of a drive either...

have a good one user

I bought a brand new bed like 3 weeks ago. I've somehow already managed to snap off the headboard and cover the mattress in patches of blood. No clue what happened. Seizures I suppose.

No, it was definitely xanax considering it was prescribed to me.

maybe you fucked a toddler to death

Nah never again.

my dad was found dead tomorrow in his apartment
he died from alcoholism

>Is it wrong to think my addictive personality is directly linked to me being medicated since I was 6?
Probably

Vomited in my sleep last night. Had to just bin the pillows. Usually I just wake up still drunk but to today I feel rough, been holding off vomiting for hours.

It's probably more along the lines that you have had serious problems since you were a little kid, and they felt the need to medicate you just so they could deal with your spastic ass. Not so much that the medication is the problem, that you have serious issues that have never been properly addressed is.

I did, it's just an antibiotic to cure it in it's early stages. You'd know if its gonnherea though

I remember waking up face down in a lazy boy one morning.

I was so out of it, I puttered around the room for an hour, before I realized it smelled terrible in there. Didn't realize the lazy boy was also covered in puke. Must of thought it was a toilet...

Back in my glory days I used to drink 6 tall boys in the showers after a football game.
Chirst I miss those days, send my back please.

guess you were born on mars then

I wish. I bet they don't serve alcohol.

Makes sense. Like I said, I want help but hospitals just freak me out. It's easier to just drink. I don't drink a crazy amount daily, but I do get pretty shitty and no one likes watching this trainwreck. It sucks cause I had a pretty decent job and wasn't living at home, but eventually my roommate flat-out bailed days before rent was due. Now I'm back home on a couch. They just see me as getting drunk all the time. I make the calls though and I fill out applications. I'm practicing my instruments and writing standup sets and looking for open-mics in the side. I was a spaz growing up for sure, I just feel like I didn't come into consciousness until my late-teens. Now it feels like I've been conditioned not to feel anything. I'm so unmoved by things that should affect me in person it's stupid. Like family dies and I don't cry. People fuck me over and I don't get mad. I get gifts and feign happiness. I wish I could feel normal but its so much easier to make the days blend and let the time fly

>hot bath drunk

god damn it that is literally me minus the comedy

Every time I tried to shower for the last few months of 2016 I fell over. Once I smacked my full weight into a glass shower door, which by some miracle didn't smash, then smacked my shoulder so hard into the basin that there's now a 2cm gap between it and the wall. I almost died so many times just trying to function
