2 weeks is a good amount of sober time. your liver thanks y- oh you are drinking again

Now try and break the record.

I never understood alcoholics. If I get so drunk that I also puke, I usually can't drink anything for a month.

How is it not disgusting for you to keep drinking once you sober up?

how are you an alcoholic loooool like just stop drinking alcohol lmoa

Still havent managed to get past 2 days.

Because when you get drunk again you feel good again.

Went to the doctor finally.

>blood pressure is 160/105
>muscle tension off the charts
>liver levels don't look good

They wanna put me on Klonopin and Antabuse in a few days. Warned me not to stop until then because I've already had seizures.

Naltrexone is another option if antabuse doesn't work. Also i was in your shoes for years. The bp and liver enzymes go back to acceptable levels in a couple weeks of abstinence.

I'm not sure I'm an "alcoholic" (or if I am, I'm not a typical one since its basically never held me back at work). But I do drink too much, almost every day.

I probably vomit from drinking about once a year, and usually I don't even feel an awful hangover in the morning. My typical "hangover" is just not feeling energetic, and it's only noticeable because I feel a bit better on the few days I don't drink.

On an average day I probably have 6 drinks (usually beer). It's not enough to make me vomit and swear to never touch booze again, but over time it's enough to damage my liver, make me fat, and slowly drag me down.

guys i like t thnk about retarded things when im drunk so help me

how the fuck drinking water prevents hangover? i mean you get hydrated and thts good for your body but i keep peeing all the fucking water i drink how do i keep the water inside my body and prevent the hangover???

eat something salty or drink gatoraide or pedialite, the salt in it keeps you from peeing out all the water too quickly

Inspiration for the next stretch.

What do you all feel when you have a hangover?

I mainly drink vodka, until i pass out. I don't get headaches, bad sleep, vomit nor body pain or anything like that. But my entire digestive system is literally fucked the next day. Diarrhea, stomach pain, and constant nausea (no vomit). I can't drink anything that's not a sports drink and i don't really eat anything until night.

i'd rather have a headache desu.

My eyes hurt all day until I go back to sleep. A lot of the time I'm still half drunk because I wake up too early to sleep it completely off. This shit is a lifesaver when it's 6 AM and I can't fall back asleep.

I can't stop dry heaving. I can't stop feeling nervous either.

you most likely aren't peeing *all* the water out. Also, drinking some water isn't magic, and it won't make you feel completely fine after heavy drinking. You just won't feel as bad as you would otherwise

What made you start again?

Don't get so drunk so you don't puke?

I can't puke desu... been drinking for 3 years and when i drink too much i pass out but don't actually puke (luckly, because otherwise i would die drowned)

That's withdrawals. Im gonna guess you've gone about 15 hours without alcohol

I'm halfway to blackout but I'm yawning and not feeling the buzz

Convince me to keep going al/ck/

Drink your pee. Its the only way to keep the water you drank inside your body.

Not worth it. grab a snack and go to sleep.

Day 21 of sobriety after 4 years of daily drinking and weekend benders. Ask me anything.

why don't you have just one drink tonight, are you a pussy?

But then all the booze up to now has been wasted

This is going to sound dumb, but is it better to drink a little bit of hard liquor, or a ton of beer?

Its Saturday. Stand up out of your chair and have another.

How do you deal with the boredom and the inevitable death that's coming for us?

Nah. You are saving yourself from a hangover and it sounds like your tolerance is too high bro. Decent sleep is underrated.

I will not be seduced by the poison Jew any longer.
Gaming and wanking myself into a deep sleep.

All that matters is how much alcohol you consume...

Do you remember the sweet sweet taste of an ice cold beer on your lips when youre sitting outside with your boys on a Saturday night?

I've been defeated. I've eaten nothing all day and yet I feel full. I'm not going to beat this.

Time to switch to juice, throw on some chill music and fall asleep on my couch.

I don't have any irl friends :)

This is a SFW blue board. Remove porn before you get banned.

a) don't drink until you puke idiot. That's why you have such bad hangovers.
b) drinking washes away a small hangover

I used to wake up like that after 6 hours

Congrats bro. keep it up.

Beer is better.
Exactly, you can't reach Smirnoffbro levels with beer.

Whats the best kind of liquor?

The kind you never pick up.

I'm coming up on 7 years sober, you just have to reach that point where you say no more.

I'm with this lad, beer, especially standard 5% piss lager or less, has a build in pace limit because of the sheer volume of water in there.

A whole case of beer is pretty much only a litre of vodka.

I never really spiralled out of control until I switched to the hard stuff as my main form of intake.

You drink long enough your always going to end up with spirits, if you're an alcoholic, setting limits for yourself doesn't work.

I keep drinking afterwards. More room so to speak.

But what sucks about beer is that getting drunk off it is impossible. Like one night I had 8 beers and only had a slight buzz.

I'm proof of that desu since I finally succumbed to the the distilled devil.

who is she

That's why it's great for tapering.

Week long binge now. Have blacked out at least 3 times. Drinking a 4 loko right now. Went sober for about 12 days and started drinking.

It's not impossible. You just have to drink a lot of beer. I get nice/buzzed after 15 regular beers. If I drink IPA then 6 usually does the trick

You're a complete failure

anyone else a problem drinker but not an alcoholic? I can go weeks without drinking or drink one beer when I feel like it by scaring myself with videos about alcohol. Just when I convince myself my liver's been given time to recover, and get my hands on some vodka or other hard stuff it goes from 1 drink to 2 to 3 to 8 and before you know it the bottle is gone and my room is full of empty cans of soda and piss bottles.

Do tell me more friend

You're not bad. You just over drink when you drink and have a lower tolerance. Doing it once in a while isnt going to fuck you up.

me

It isn't once in a while though. I "can" go weeks but it's usually more like one week off (being generous here) then 3-6 days on (never more than a week) I'm drunk right now but I had the foresight to get beer instead of liquor this time so I can still function.

Yes. I never get black out drink but I'm all about the beer. It's an issue. I like the mouthfeel of it. I go thru a 30 pk every 24 hrs. Maybe a bit more

how much do you weigh wtf

I can't even drink that much water in 24 hours how the fuck.

>30 drinks a day
>210 drinks a week
>10,920 drinks a year
you might have a problem

wait, we got baited

178 6 ft skelly I don't eat much

I've just built up a tilerance

>15 regular beers

but wouldn;t your body just go fucking crazy after this amoutn? i mean thats a ton of carbonation/calories. if you're going to drink that much, might as well just drink vodka or rum to spare your body the effort

Blood shitter/cancer patient here.

Day 4 of constant chunks of black and bright red shit

>tfw have to use snapchat because of 2mb max

how long do you have left?

Stopped going to the dr and chemo last year. Maybe 6-24 months if i had to guess. No more 36 months for sure

I went 5 days without drinking.
I worked some heavy ass jobs between now and then.
Literally working 12+ hours a day.

Got the day off early, don't need to work tomorrow.
Decided to get shit faced. Had no booze at home, so I needed to buy some.

Went to first regular liquor store. Closed early. Walked a few KM to another store. Closes early on Saturday. Walked/took bus to another store. Closed but just missed.
Only a KM from the metro, so I took it to the next closest store.
Open.
Thank.
Fuck.

I walked like 5k to get my fucking drink.
And that was after 7 hours of working for a moving company.

michigan?

oh well. everybody dies. so whatever.

Why?

I hate myself and all that jazz.
But I hate letting anything else win.

I mean the last few months of your life is going to be hell.
Especially since you have... Colon cancer?

Helium tank when

Yup.

No i have late stage aggressive b cell non hodgkin lymphoma.

>spare your body

Eh, Same amt of alcohol in the end I'm ok

Yeah but thats my point. Same amount of alcohol, but with the beer, you are ingesting way, way more carbonation and calories, so you are actually worse off.

Grandpop died of lymphoma
Good man. Lived a long life and had a long white hair and a big white beard. That's the memory I have of him when he died around when I was ten.

Anywho, mate, why do you want to die?
Since you're coming here, you obviously have some part of you that A) hates yourself and B) wants to talk about it

Not at 27.

If i was going to kill myself i wouldn't be a bitch....10mm to the brainstem

Do it faggot, better than the pain of dying from cancer.

I don't want to die.

Bored, sad. Just talking

I poo like that too. I assume it's bc I drink too much.

why did you stop chemo then?

how much and how long did you drink

It's actually not that painful, They give you pretty much any drug you want.

Between the benzos, opioids, and alcohol I stay fairly pain free. If you want to call moderate pain pain free

Then why the fuck you stop going to your doctor?

I'm a self-hating son of a bitch. But I'm going to grab and claw at every scrap of life I can get my hands onto. FUCK the universe in its limited pay-per-view shit.

I also believe nothing is worth anything and that dying at any time is worth dying at any time.

Have you read many absurdist shit? Because it might help. Nothing ain't worth fuck all

Won't it get more painful towards the end?

Sick of wasting my time and it makes you sick as fuck.

I would rather die 6 months sooner then go though 12 months of chemo.


Not worth the pain/vomiting/wasted time.

Where do you feel pain?

I get ulcers from time to time.
It makes my middle chest region feel like I swallowed an ember

Maybe clean your fucking toilet before you die

Yes, They have fentanyl for that.

If your in pain after a fent lollipop you are in some serious shit. You might want to check to see if your legs have been cut off

I drink 3 handles of 80% vodka a week, Since about 2008

Stomach, chest, throat, body aches, literally almost everywhere. It's very painful

Might want to go to the doctor man

When were you diagnosed? Also what were your symptoms?

2012 after I got into a car accident

I only had chest and throat pain I associated with smoking and drinking too much. I also sometimes vomited but I also associated that to drinking so I didn't see any real signs until I was hospitalized after the crash and they started going tests and told me

Did the smoking cause the lymphoma?

Unlucky man. Hope you're not dying alone.

>guy who says he only got diagnosed with fucking cancer after he was in a car crash
>says go to the doctor
Harhar.

Nah, I'll wait till I get in my own car cash.
I know ulcers.
The come and go with stress.

Between you and me, mate, I like feeling pain. Maybe that's part of why I'm an alcoholic.

I like feeling like shit because then it justifies why everything else I am is shit.

I don't believe so. I only started in 2009, I never smoked before that. I also didn't smoke heavily...Maybe 1/4-1/2 pack a day.


Genetics man.

My dad died of cancer and my mom I'm sure has it and has no idea because she doesn't believe in doctors (she's crazy as fuck religious).

>I like feeling like shit because then it justifies why everything else I am is shit.

HNNNGGG

Right in the feels.

Actually I am.

>tfw no gf


No women find a bald cancer patient attractive lol


But seriously if I could ask for one thing for the rest of my shitty life, It would be a woman that loves me unconditionally

That's kinda shitty. I'm taking a bloody dump right now and I have those symptoms. Fatal bouts of cancer on both sides of family. I get dizzy and disoriented on occasion too. Oh well. I'll assume I smoke and drink too much. I don't insurance, so I'm not going to go have it looked at.

Alcoholics get ulcers pretty often. Chances are that's what it is, I have one myself. But I don't want to waste time in a hospital repairing it when I'm going to be dead in a year.


I just take 4 150mg Zantac a day and It helps

>Right in the feels.
Then why the FUCK are you letting it happen
You know WHY you are letting it happen
Because you like being a fucking victim who life fucked you over. You like saying "Well, you can't judge me that I didn't amount to what everyone thought I would, I have cancer" *sad but underneath smug*

Get the fuck back on your chemo.

I've had ulcers before
Here's how you know it's an ulcer
It hurts most when you're hungrier
That's basically the tell-tale.

When you're hungry, aka your stomach is empty, the acid of your stomach starts to prep and with nothing to react to, it reacts to the hole in your gut. So it hurts more.

If you feel constant pain all the time, then you got something else.

If it wanes and waxes depends on how full your stomach is, it's an ulcer.

Also, if you have an ulcer, your shit has black specks in it.
Black=upper dietary tract blood.
Red=lower dietary tract blood

Red shit = doctor.

Unless you have haemorrhoids. Then that means more fiber.

Jesus fucking christ, thats quite hardcore, 3 handles 80% vodka..

How do you even live?

You mean financially?

I still go to work sober twice a week. 3 handles isnt that much
