Al/ck/

Devil on your shoulder edition

Just had a successful two months sober but planned on going back to drinking tonight during the hockey game at a bar with a friend... now he canceled.

Drink at home alone since I was going to anyways and was looking forward to it, or stay strong for another day? I'm drinking tomorrow for sure, so it seems like I should just do it.

12 days sober and all i can think about is booze. I keep thinking i should just go buy a beer. One beer can't hurt.

Gotta stay strong.

I got really drunk last night and broke down. I called in to work. I think it's time for me to stop

don't do it
It'll be more fun with other people after that long break and you don't want to get back into the habit of drinking alone

i went into work hungover today. wasnt fun. i dont binge drink during the week, but i got sad and just kept drinking.

I lost my last job from drinking and I have an interview. The job is related to my field and I'm not sure I can get a reference. Any advice? Not sure if I should keep quiet..? I wasn't fired but I quit without notice to go on a bender... It lasted a month..

Question.

Are you al/ck/os regular Veeky Forums posters outside of these threads? Or do you all come from other boards and just convene here to discuss alcoholism? What boards do you come from? I'm not mad since the Veeky Forums AA meetings have been here since forever, just curious.

post on Veeky Forums out of this thread and I only come to this board

Poster above. I go on b, x, his, pol mostly. I don't even like anime

lurk on Veeky Forums and only post on this thread. i regular /x/ Veeky Forums Veeky Forums and /pol/. if i have an obscure feel i will post in on /r9k/ for the other sadbois

I ran out of weed and can't stop drinking beer when I get home from work. Friday I'll balance out again.

I post on other threads and enjoy cooking, but I'm mainly here for al/ck/. I can't stand the right wing know-it-all kids on most other boards, /pol/'s influence is too toe-curling, but I'll occasionally use /wsg/, /x/ or Veeky Forums.

OP here. I post on Veeky Forums but I don't really cook much for myself, so I try to lurk and not post shitty fast food threads. I actually don't use al/ck/ a lot, but have been while sober, ironically.

But my home boards are /adv/ and /co/. I try to post on Veeky Forums whenever I can find a decent topic that isn't involving cryptocurrency.

Veeky Forums and /x/
I go to the two most retarded boards to ensure they're not getting too stupid to think straight.
4410 Days on Veeky Forums and I want off the ride. /b/ Is dead to me, I don't want to look at cocks all fucking day.

Please do stay strong. Ive been trying to stop for a while. Its so hard. I just want a buzz

Come up with some excuse. Like you had personal issues and felt the need to deal with them or some shit

Ikr. There's SO MUCH gay shit on all nsfw boards nowadays, I don't bother with any of them any more, it just pisses me off being hit with an avalanche of faggotry.

Literal faggotry. Dick rate, incest, traps..
Iike fuck give it a rest for 10 seconds

The one guy has been posting the 'waifu claiming thread' religiously every day since 2010 or 2011 on /b/.
That's what pushed me over the edge. The fact that he has never suffered a single ban or had a single thread moved. It wasn't even the dicks I saw all day, which I calculated to be 44.3 miles over 10 years. 44.3 Miles of dick I saw and waifu claiming guy pissed me off so bad that I left. Really makes you think.

The calculation was accurate to 6.5 inches per dick and 75 dicks per day, roughly.

7 inches per dick at 11 years*
I'm having trouble remembering all the miles of dick I've seen apparently but this should be more accurate.

Veeky Forums, /g/ and /porn/ here although I'll lurk in Veeky Forums for the lol/webm threads.

Veeky Forums /b/ /gif/ /wsg/ and here now. Fell in love with Veeky Forums when I first discovered the al/ck/ threads. Stopped feeling like I was alone in my situation

I got it!
100 Dicks per day at 7 inches per day, 10 years, 2 leap years, this equals 40.3 miles of dick.
Quite an achievement to witness this.

Why, did he claim your waifu?

i lurk and post on a lot of different boards, but mostly /v/ /tv/ and /g/. used to mainly browse /b/ years ago, but after taking a break during chanology shit and coming back a few years ago, /b/ somehow seems way shittier. been so long that i don't have any of my old /b/ shit to tell if that's actually true or not.

40.3 MILES OF DICK

you're 30 years old on Veeky Forums? jesus christ man get a life

I am 25. I grew up ddosing, raiding habbo and sending shit to people's houses. It was fun. I managed to avoid millennial retardation by staying productive here.
I will be here when I'm 30 just soi can say I've been here longer than you've lived, newfag. Eat shit.

Its the kids who need to leave, it's not the adults shitting the place up. I'm not far off 40 and I love Veeky Forums.
In other news, I had a whole entire 25 minutes sleep last night, before those fucking horrific, vivid as hell withdrawal nightmares had me sat bolt upright, drenched in sweat. The lack of sleep is near unbearable.

Veeky Forums, /b/, /v/ as a SFW /b/, Veeky Forums, /co/, /g/, and most other ones that allow a fun but not unpleasant degree of shitposting.

I'm no stranger to drinking; in fact I'm drunk right now, but...I MUST KNOW THIS. What is the connection between Veeky Forums and alcoholism? I get around on other boards, but nobody does this like Veeky Forums...is it the industry? I would think bar peeps would be more in that rut...Most chefs I know are either drunks or totally sober...so why the massive fluctuation?

Sloppy guys who break shit and have a firearm coming out at some point, or massively tattooed coffee snorting, bearded chain smokers...I'm not that deep in the game and confused...can someone break it down? I like to drink and cook...but I'm always on time to work and never fuck off like a degenerate prick fuck and hurt business and/or the establishment or the general image...

Help me understand the struggle

i dont know, a lot of my co-workers are drunks and we're all cooks as well. im the baker actually, and we all do well too
actually i know plenty of bar-tenders who are not, in fact, drunks
it's weird, i can pass out the night before and work just fine in the morning

Gave a presentation I've been preparing for weeks at work today, fuck it, even if I have to go in tomorrow. Icehouse because I'm cheap as fuck

>internet goes out, probably for 24 hours
>as introvert neet first urge is to climb into bottle out of boredom
>pop some ritalin and have an engaging history discussion with friends on phone data instead

somebody post a happy wojak i have no reaction images on mobile

...

close enough thank you user

as a sidenote lurking this thread for a few months it seems like everybody is middle class or wealthy, older than most of Veeky Forums, and generally in more prestigious lines of work. are there any blue collar anons or does alcoholism these days mostly attract people taking the load off from the daily boardroom meeting or what have you?

Why would it get moved/banned? It's /b/, the point is that anything goes.

eh im 25 so i dont know if working as a baker in a small place is too lame, im fine with it, i love what i do
i made the mistake of falling for the culinary school meme, so here i am

I post on Veeky Forums and to a lesser degree, /a/, Veeky Forums, /int/, Veeky Forums and Veeky Forums

But I mostly just come to this website for the al/ck/ threads now.

Felt that last week. 3 days straight. Drank and haven't stopped. They're gone. Quitting is hard as fuck

>same thread for over 2700 days
>why would it get moved

Would you move a McChicken thread to /trash/ after 7 years of the same thing?

The /div/ faggots on /x/ are getting up to the same shit. It's fucking sickening, that's why it needs a ban.

>tfw still sober

First sober night in awhile. I still had a couple beers though. Hopefully I can sleep and don't have nightmares. I really wanna cut down but it's hard... especially when you start getting the anxiety/paranoia the day after.

You seem to miss my point, the difference between /b/ and other boards. /b/ is the random board. Basically anything is allowed, that's the point.

>/b/
>moderation
>not expecting an ocean of dicks
you played yourself, my man

Almost fell for the culinary achool meme till i learned about the 14 hour workdays and the substance abuse people do to cope. Bad news is whole family knows I wanna learn to cook and is linking me schools for it when I just wanna make a nice pan sauce at home, learn the basics to cook for myself. Being a baker sounds great, is it more chill than other food work?

I left because "anything goes" can obviously go too far. And all the threads are the exact same, day after day, kind of like this board.

There's just no miles of dick to look at here so it's tolerable.

i guess it is, i dont come out looking as miserable as the cook, but you need presicion if you want to get shit done right
still, le cordon bleu makes me fucking tired, all my classmates are fresh-off-school snobby dumb cunts and i hate depending on them,i feel alienated. i used to be an extremely social person, but now i reeeeee at the idea of seeing my classmates and prefer to come to Veeky Forums and talk to anons in my drunken nights
whereas at work i feel like im with my people, even though we're not really close friends, i dont know.
i cant even leave school because i'm in last semester and there has been a lot of money wasted on it already

i'm not too sure honestly. i'm just an alcoholic who loves food. most of the times i don't eat, but i still love to look at pictures of it, read about it, etc. i have also always enjoyed cooking. one of the happiest most enjoyable things i do in life is grilling while drunk. theres just something about it. also.. the only time i really eat or get hungry is while drunk, so i just love to black out, shit post, and read all the funny things anons say on here.

I just don't see why you think the mods should do anything when the point of the board is the lack of heavy moderation.

Got really drunk last night and texted a bunch of people just before blacking out.
>asked one girl to date
>asked one to fuck
>told one friend I'm depressed
>told another my distrust for women

I've gotta sort my shit out.

I used to go on /b/, Veeky Forums, /soc/, now mainly go to /news/, /diy/, and porn boards.
Veeky Forums has been home board the longest, and where is I post the most, in al/ck/ threads or not.

/b/ is literally filled with newfags, as every oldfag left /b/

Did you try to enact this "fuck one, marry one, kill one" meme?

>Did you try to enact this "fuck one, marry one, kill one" meme?
No, but I can see why it looks that way lol. Either way I struck out on both so maybe I'll just kill both and be 1/3 successful.

I post on Veeky Forums outside of here, other boards are /pol/ Veeky Forums Veeky Forums and very occasionally /r9k/

Veeky Forums mostly. /pol/ and Veeky Forums once in awhile. Been a co/ck/ since 2010? Idk whenever that guy posted about slaughtering the deer in his tub

when will I finally be drunk enough to kill myself

These days it's mostly Veeky Forums, /r9k/, and /pol/.

Ask me this question 5 or 10 years ago and you would get vastly different answers.

I took a few hydrocodones that I was prescribed for pain on top of drinking pretty heavily, every time I stretch it really hurts my kidneys and im worried I've done some irreversible damage.

I don't understand how you chubby drinkers deal with nausea and vomitting.

Each time i feel like i potentially COULD vomit i pop two Motiliums. I fucking despise vomiting to the point of instinctive fear. It's the way the body express that you fucked up.

sober 3 days

have a good 24 anons

>Blacked out drunk yesterday
>Wake up
>Apparently I had emailed a signed copy to the uni saying I'm dropping out
>They accepted it

what the hell have i done

Damn user, that's fucked. Probably.
Use your spare time to get into Alan watts. Maybe it's the best thing you ever did.

Drink water you'll be fine

My main is /tv/. I go to ck, pol, r9k, x, lit, g, v, mu as well as /porn/.

welcome to neet niqqa

If i drink enough to actually be drunk i also have go sleep for almost the entire next day cause ofnthe hangover. Just not worth it anymore. Drank 12 beers Tuesday night and spent all day sleeping Wednesday. I just like waking up feeling good lately so been cutting down.

If you occasionally get drunk it sucks, you have to be drunk every night and then hangover goes away, def a losing situation.

I can't sleep for more than 4-5 hours these days whether I'm drunk or sober, and sometimes I don't think I sleep at all.
I can go to sleep if I get wasted, but I avoid that because the backlash of so much alcohol will have me drinking in the morning to stave it off.

Six months sober

Had a couple year long sober streaks before this time, always relapsed and eventually wound up in ER then psych ward

Hope it sticks this time

I don't miss the hangovers or shakes or panic or bloating and weight gain

Unfortunately the life problems and depression are still around, they don't go away...even after a year sobriety I was still dealing with that shit

>Tfw I have brain problems
>I either take my medication (Seroquel), sleep for 10-12 hours, and wake up feeling tired
>Or I don't take my medication, get hella manic, sleep for maybe 4 hours a night and wake up feeling fucking amazing

Seroquel is nice when I'm feeling extremely depressed though.
>Get wasted
>Decide that the next day is just a write off
>Take a couple extra pills
>Sleep for 18 hours

Back in my teen years before I started drinking and then later taking an ssri, I used to be able to sleep for 12 hours straight and I loved it every single time. I miss the ability to do that, but I guess I'm better off now naturally sleeping less because of work.

Happens to the best of us. Last weekend I went on a weekend binge. Forgot almost every conversation I had with someone. No one has mentioned anything so I feel like I passed out fine or people feel bad for me and choose not to mention it.

>people feel bad for me and choose not to mention it.

tfw it's so normal for you to get drunk and make an ass of yourself that your friends just stop bringing it up.

Just got to stop caring, user. I make a complete penis out of myself several times a week, up to and including to the point of having members of the public leave their houses/come out of shops/restaurants to watch the crazy drunk guy, before waking up in a cell. Again. After all these years of this nightmare i refuse to let myself care what alcohol makes me do. I just get drunk again and forget.

Are you the guy who got the 30 people crowd watching you?
Story time pl0x

It's too depressing to think about while sober, only just avoided prison last time, and too hard to type it all once I'm wrecked. I'll post a few one day.

>Being a baker sounds great, is it more chill than other food work
Depends where you work but at lot of bakers have to come in to work at like 4 am

I sit in an office alone all day with barely any work to do and the work I do need to do I just procrastinate with. I usually drink at work out of boredom or drink at home after work to cope with all the existential bullshit I think about at work.

Any recollection of why you did it? I do all sorts of stupid shit while drunk. Last fuck up was spending 2 grand on weed grow op equipment, never using it and selling it at a loss of 1.4k, still unopened.

Absolutely no clue whatsoever
I don't even know what to do, just drinking right now and trying to keep my mind occupied
There's no way I can get back in for another few years since it's their rules, once you're out, you have to wait some years to get back in
I'm basically screwed, guess I'll have to start looking for a job soon

how do people live with blackouts
I think I've only had maybe one of those zap-awake-holy-shit-where-am-I-what-have-I-done blackouts in my young life, and I came to on the bathroom floor of this chick's apartment curled around the toilet and wearing her roommate's clothes.

That shit TERRIFIES me.

Back in uni I used to get wasted out of my mind where I'd be throwing glass bottles into the wall in the basement and screaming and destroying old furniture down there, but I never blacked out.
All these other kids were talking about how they blacked out and couldn't remember shit from last night but that never happened to me and I drank more than everyone except my 2 friends who could match me.

>how?
Pretty much just drink more and cling on for dear life.

/cgl/, /co/, Veeky Forums, boards like that.

Is it true that alcohol will only make you do things you wanted to do but restrained yourself from while sober?

I spend most of my time on /a/, /k/ and /v/. Veeky Forums and /tv/ are my go to for lurking and I use /gif/ when I can't think of any porn to watch.

I also occasionally get drunk and robo post on/r9k/. That's what I'm most ashamed about.

I'd say absolutely. I usually do all my house cleaning when I'm drunk because I feel motivated to do it.

Also when I was drunk the other night I signed up for a cooking class, asked a girl out over text, tried learning some Japanese and invited my 75 year old coworker to go to a bar next week. The next day when I sobered up I cancelled all of that, even the date.

i am a stay at home neet so blackouts arent dangerous or risky for me, but knowing about them after the fact is gross and unsettling. like i got taken over by a pod person. i blacked out last week and apparently just alternated between crying and saying pure gibberish for 3 hours, then went to sleep. did it in a froup call with some internet friends and it was pretty fucking embarrassing to learn about after the fact.

Just started detoxing at home yesterday. Gf doesn't more I started drinking again (more like never stopped) I'm hopeful this time is for real, but I did this 2 months ago and fell off within 7 days.

I've slept about 16 hours in the past day. My bones are killing me, I already went thru DTs and my liver feels sore. But I think I'm gonna make it, these worse my detox is, the less I feel like relapsing.

I've been sober over a year 2 different times. In 2016 I was sober 3 months.

My 4th major relapse was in July after I got out of rehab. If I ever drink again, I honestly deserve death.

Luckily I just quit this time because I'm tired. One time was because of jail, one because gf threatened to leave, one for rehab. This one honestly feels like I'm fucking tired.


The shitty thing is I'm probably going to have to return to AA in some capacity, I'm really dreading that.

Anyway, I know it's a long boring post, but I have to tell someone. Wish me luck, Veeky Forums

Community college nukka

how many people find escaping alcoholism harder than it should be simply because AA sucks as hard as it does. especially with that higher power garbage.

Thing is, ive been binge drinking on and off since September with a few days here or there and not once has anyone mentioned anything I've said or done. So I may be over thinking it and just talk when I'm drunk

Me. I dont believe I'm an alcoholic but I am starting to see early signs of it. I drink for the same reasons everyday.
>>me and baby momma fight
>>I get sad about all the friends ive lost cause of her
>>realize my life is getting wasted away

>i am a stay at home neet
hey me too brother

I've been told about refuge recovery and SMART recovery, but haven't tried it because the only meetings are 2 cities away. One's agnostic and the other is Buddhist. I really dislike AA even tho it kept me sober.

yeah id just go to AA drunk as fuck. id just sit there and keep quiet and walk out as soon as it was over

I hated it

My brother wanted my family to go to one of his meetings a few years ago and I found the whole thing very cringy. It felt like this one Christian version of boy scouts I got invited to once.

They try to do shit like pic related and it comes off as melodramatic and unproductive.

Never ever drink on your own. It's a great rule of thumb.

You'll have your fun another day, do something like read a good book, have a cup of tea with it if that's your thing.

i can only sleep if i drink until i pass out

What's your all's favorite cheap/broke drink

I make my own booze.
