Who else is headed toward a night of weird dreams and only being partly asleep from wds

Can someone tell me how one ends up as an alcoholic? Im asumeing noone was there to help you?
If I showed signs of alcoholism I'd have maybe 4 or 5 different people that would stop me

if you were a real alcoholic you'd hide it from anyone you care about

Do it more often and in larger amounts and eventually take drinks to stave off hangovers and withdrawal

People start out because its pleasurable. Then it becomes a coping mechanism.

And what do you mean people would stop you? How?

But like wont coworkers and such notice if you are starting to become one?

I'm pretty deep into a binge right now, so the nightmares aren't hitting yet. 2 days of cold turkey though and they thunder in. It takes a good 10-15 mins after waking to realise that they were just dreams. Truly awful. I once had to have a Doc out because I was so convinced I'd spent hours talking with my dead sister. Could see her sat on the couch by my bed. Was so vivid that it seemed impossible that it wasn't real. Bed gets so drenched with sweat that I spend most of my nights sleeping on the floor, waiting for it to dry.

Stop as in. Telling you that you are drinking to much for your own good. And should tone it down. Or you are gonne end up alcoholic

Why do you do cold turkey? Im slowly drinking beers. It helps. The sweats amd hallucinations and thumping chest are too much.

When did that ever stop someone? Any alkies ive met would say sure, no problem, and then be extra careful to hide it from that person

Used to it I suppose. I always, always fuck up and get smashed if I try to taper.
Also have access to benzos on the streets. Couldn't do it without them.

Im not talking about someone who is a fullblown alcoholic. More like someone who is about to be one.

What fun it is!

They'd sure as hell smell the drink coming out of your pores. My mum used to work with an alcie, said it was pretty obvious.

I find Beer is the easiest to smell. Anymore than 1 and your breath will smell like beer for like 10 hours

I go to work hung over now and then and went buzzed a couple days last week and nobody said anything

Please never start drinking too much. My mother is in a overly responsible Position and mirror drinks with my father.
I Drink beers mostly because the weight is too much, no one asks me about anything at all...no one is there to talk to me at all..andI think no one wants to either

>tfw functioning alcoholic

anime out

They ate spoiled fruit

Same here

Except that if I am hungover I am told that they can tell because I become hyperproductive

yeah people try to stop you but you don't stop, that's what it means to have an addiction

you sound young

Really? I find it super easy to get away with. You can even openly joke about how you need a drink and people will just laugh.

I feel like Im constantly surfing the wave on the edge of just completely fucking up my life. I got taken to the hospital a couple months ago but I escaped, trying to keep a low profile since then.

still getting drunk tonight and still gonna venture out into the world in a bit to get some food, I don't plan on blacking out so I should be okay

heres some more Magnetic Fields

Was two days sober, kept an emergency case of beer in my car in case I was dying

Not even 3 minutes ago, a mouse just literally bumped into my foot

That small little cunt didn't even give a shit that a giant that weighed 1000x more than he did was sitting there

So now, I'm gonna go drink at least a 6 pack tonight to forget my shitty living arangements

It's not a switch, it's a slide. Enjoy the ride.

jenkem

I haven't drank alcohol, smoked, looked at pornography, masturbated, or eaten red meat since April 19. It's been hard but I'm hanging in strong this time. Good luck to you all.

wish i was drunk. i feel really bad and have exams. it wouldn't make me feel better, but it would let me blame my shitty mood on something.

As if life isn't suffering and the booze isn't a timeout.

Have fun

>how cavemen got drunk
Too lazy to hunt down real, actual sources, so here's Wikipedia:

>Discovery of late Stone Age jugs suggest that intentionally fermented beverages existed at least as early as the Neolithic period (cir. 10,000 BC).[2]

Considering that lots of animals deliberately consume fermented fruits to get pissed (monkeys, elephants, cockatoos), "Human ancestors may have begun evolving the knack for consuming alcohol about 10 million years ago, long before modern humans began brewing booze, researchers say." (livescience.com/48958-human-origins-alcohol-consumption.html). Anyway, I'm going to go and drink some nice cold beers.

good job user. You're well on your way to becoming a nu-male.

Seriously though, good on your for practicing self-discipline. It feels good doesnt it? Are you exercising as well? may as well top it off with some muscle growth.

Yes I'm doing a mile every morning and another in the evening. I haven't been jogging the whole thing straight though, I break it up with a little walking. But just an hour ago I jogged the full mile without slowing down.

Went from 2 gallons of vodka a week for the past year and a half down to nothing for the past few weeks (14 days I think?). Have even been in some positions that would normally trigger the alky in me pretty hard but I've knuckled through.

Thanks for these threads, guys, its nice to have a reminder why I'm sober. Waking up and not feeling like death warmed over is a huge goddamn boon.

>That small little cunt didn't even give a shit that a giant that weighed 1000x more than he did was sitting there
The mouse is undermining you into drinking again so you can further slide, thus making that wee mouse the victor.

Shameful display, user-kun.

Jeezus christ howd you detox?

thanks man

There has been a grand total of one mouse since i moved here three years ago. Now a smelly immigrant family moved in and they're everywhere

Last one I caught with a glue trap, still alive, so I pistol whipped him to death

Little too hard though. Just wanted to break his spine nice and clean, ended up bashing his head in

...

It was a really bad 72 hour period, I'll tell ya. The impetus for my sobriety was a four day, five fifth bender and nearly fucked up my living situation.

I am not a fuckin fan of the dts.

Yeah those benders unleash some real hell

first of all what the fuck does impetus mean

>complains about shitty living arrangements
>spends money on alcohol instead

c'mon user. unless i'm missing something and your living situation is out of your control.

im·pe·tus
The force or energy with which a body moves

Read a dictionary you fucking louse.

Falling off the wagon after two months of sobriety on Wednesday, anons. Any tips to not spiral immediately back into my old ways of drinking 10+ drinks a day again?

Most people I've known for years and years and years say they can't really tell the difference between me sober and me drinking. I've had people around me that should be well aware that I'm an alcoholic insist that I'm not bad at all when I say I drink too much (mainly because I rebound like a king and am always on time and bright eyed for work). But at the end of the day, no one can stop you. I'm my own man, live in my own house, and make my own money. I don't have a wife or kids. If I want to drink, I'll find a way and won't tell anyone.

and second of all

smoke more weed?
the alcohol you're drinking is slowly killing you.
the more you drink, the faster you'll get there too.

>American nature documentary
>otherwise interesting footage is filled with stupid sound effects out of a cartoon

This is why I can't watch anything other than British documentaries

>Any tips to not spiral immediately back into my old ways of drinking 10+ drinks a day again?

Just realize you fucked up, keep going sober, and accept that as what it is and that alone. You're not starting all over, you're continuing with your commitment to sobriety. Just keep going, man. Hit the ground running.

>Most people I've known for years and years and years say they can't really tell the difference between me sober and me drinking.

I have the exact same problem. I really don't know how to deal with this one, because it's usually when I haven't been drinking that people ask me "are you okay?" I don't know the answer to this one. We're all on our own, in a way. People can help us but no one is going to be your nanny. They can't. We're grown-ass men.

Can anyone recommend a small freezer so I can keep ice and shitty vodka in my room?

Fuck off newfag

Nothing wrong with meat or masturbating

There is if it's causing problems for you. Not him, but I, personally, had to cut way back on the meat once I was diagnosed with gout. Which I probably got because my alcohol problem fucked up my liver and kidneys. Also fapping too much makes it much harder to get off. Especially once you start getting older.

I can't smoke weed because my job is held to federal regulations and they test. It's even legal in my state. Sigh.

I can't maintain sobriety without telling my coworkers I have an issue, which would be an issue for my career at large. Drinking is HEAVILY pushed in my job. I don't think a non-drinker could survive what I do.

I want to pick up smoking again. I wasn't addicted, so I quit while I still could, but I enjoy it and I'm going through some shit. Please stop me, I need the money for other things.

I discovered that I prefer morning drinking, so I've quit drinking in the afternoon/evening to balance it out. How retarded is this?

What job?

Just did a fart do bad that I think I may have to move house ;_; at the very least I'm going to need a new duvet, new furniture and to replace the carpets and repaint, that fucker was alive.

Marketing for the world's biggest casino company in Vegas.

That sounds cool as fuck, I'm jealous.

Not at all. I actually appreciate alcohol much more in the morning than I do at night. Honestly, at night, especially after the first couple of beers after work, I feel like drinking is a chore.

I am craving a drink so bad right now. Haven't had one since around 4:00 Sunday morning and I'm about to tear my hair out I think.

>hyperproductive
user...

Did Hitler really gave a fuck about half of those?

Congrats user. You passed the hard part. Now comes the painfully long part of continuing not drinking.
The first few months can be tricky, once you start feeling normal in the morning again.

>Any tips to not spiral immediately back into my old ways of drinking 10+ drinks a day again?
Yep, stop asap. The sooner the less withdrawals you'll have.

Try Amazon or ask your local freezer and large appliance stores.

Keep it up, you can make it.

>user...
Not him, but I know that experience. It's not always my best quality work, but for some reason when I'm hung over I try to overcompensate so no one suspects I was hammered the night before. There's a difference between the hangovers of longtime alcoholics and normal people. I don't know how to explain it, but when you're a longtime drunk, your hangovers are expressed in hyperactivity and an odd "believing your own bullshit" optimism that no one who hasn't experienced it can understand.

Fuck this.
Today I stay sober.
Day 1 here I come.
m.youtube.com/watch?v=IEnNEIVR9EM

Spiraling guy here. I haven't been drinking for two months. There's nothing to stop... I'm starting again because drinking is just a fact of life for me at the moment. Looking to keep from going too hard, though.

Ayyyye I do marketing circus circus senpai! I wish I could smoke weed too dont worry! But I just do mushrooms and acid. Great substitutes!

>"believing your own bullshit"
That's regular drunk, you haven't sobered up entirely.
I'm questioning the actual result, he may be asked to leave because "not always best quality work" is actually crap.
I've had these hangovers when I was younger and on my way to becoming an alkie, but I think it's because of a "just drunk enough but not too much".

Oh, you're trying moderation. It doesn't work for me nor for most of us here, so take our advices with a pinch of salt.
Stick to beer, no hard drinks. Only drink on weekends. Only drink socially, never alone.

I told my parents I started a new job today little did they know I just went to the local theater and watched lego batman and half of hidden figures. I've dug myself into a hole here and they think I have work thursday what should I do???

Why did you say that? How old are you and how much do you drink daily?

You are great.

I'm 22

sbout 2l of svedka daily

>2l of svedka daily
>The spirit is 80 proof (40% alcohol).
You live with your parents? Don't they know you drink too much to possibly be a functional alkie?

my parents are senile and the only reason we live together is because of my app, which the revenue is drying up.

Thx

Make another app? Or work on increasing the revenues of the first one.
Can you do that drinking that much or would you have to tapper down a bit?

I tried but usually apps are 1 hit wonders, and i've tried like 4 more times with no avail.. I'm a good programmer with no experience is the problem no company will pick me up because I have no work experience even though I've created worthful websites and apps... it's really a cruel world....
I just got my tax refund as I type this message prob gonna end it lol...

jk lol i have a lot to live for such as keeping my tortoises alive since they love me.

my youtube for my pets if anyone is interested: youtube.com/channel/UCzt8j2oNWY29DD9TG9mhMmw

>taper off the liquor
>start spamming you application


seriously it's a number games. say there's a .01% you get hired per application, you have to send in a fuck ton of applications. check your local governments website and USAjobs.gov they are always looking for programmers willing to forgo the private sector. reach out to recruiters like aerotek. get a linkedin. just keep trying, do it for them.

How does someone drink this much daily? I drink about a half a 750ml bottle of Wild Turkey 101 or Jack 3-5 nights a week and I can't imagine drinking more.

Tolerance goes up as the years go by

Ah really didn't think about that. Makes sense though.

Back at 17 a 40'oz of malt liquor would have me feeling good for the day. At 27 I'm pissed off when a fifth of vodka doesn't get me drunk enough

I physically and socially live in complete isolation. I'm not only losing my mind, I'm using alcohol as a means to slowly and enjoyably kill myself.

Has anyone tried this? Fucking 95% alcohol content

Isn't this for mixing into large bowls of punch to make it alcoholic?

The fuck? Couldn't even buy that in my state in the US, highest proof you can buy here is 151.

we can get this in Quebec liquor stores. I had it as a teen and chased it with water cause it was all I had

don't remember it being that bad

pic related, oops

still surprised anyone is shocked over this, you can find spirytus in every shop in Poland
it's mostly used for home made infusions, but you could theoretically dilute it with water to make 40% abv vodka too
noone drinks it undiluted though, bums generally prefer cheaper stuff

Whats something that's really easy to drink, and I'd drink it pretty fast, that would get me drunk pretty easy? Also I'd be hiding it in one of the big foam cups that you generally get from gas stations.

>female alcoholic that drinks 2 liters a day and has a 50k subscriber vlog channel

Literally wat

>96.5%
God dammit Poland.

dawwwww thank you for this
