So far so good, about to run out though, not gonna be doing so good after that

Too fucked to go to the store?

i've been on a tolerance break for a few days and i'm bored out of my mind

3rd month sober, I can't start drinking just yet again, that cost me job problems, health,sanity and stress in family. Gotta sort myself out first.

>When your body is fucking up in so many ways alcoholism is not even in the top 10

Had a few beers this morning and didn't sleep last night. I don't want to be too sedated and fucked up for work later though.
Honestly the only thing I really want is good sleep. That's the only thing I want.

reading it takes 7 years for your brain to fully recover after heavy alcoholism

...

Better now that the FBI unfroze the board.

I always assume hiromoot didn't pay the god damn electric bill.

>Pls buy a pass

I'm on my 9th day sober and just had the best sleep in years. I woke up rested and clear headed like I used to do as a child.

Feels good, man.

Had half a tall boy this morning....my drinking has gone way down from 2 bottles of wine a night and heavy drinking on beers through the morning and afternoon. Starting as early as I could convince my wife I had to go get cigarettes or w.e. thing could bring me to get to the gas station....anyway down to a few tall boys or a bottle of wine a night and a beer in the AM I'm overall satisfied just wish i could kick that morning beer

I'm done with liqour. I can't control myself with it. I make my drinks way too strong on purpose and I always fucking black out and I'm sick of it.

Only drank a 6 pack a night so far this week. That's about as close to sobriety as i think I'll get.

That's the one thing i always long for during periods of extensive drinking.

Being tired and exhausted and yawning all day blows

I must be broken because today is 21 days booze free and I'm struggling to stay awake all the fucking time.

Did you attempt to get your diet, exercise and circadian rhythm in check as well?

Depending on how hard you drank it could take a while to heal up... vitamins help.

I wish I was dead

So do we, sweet prince.

What drink goes great with a cigar?

>4:45 PM
>15 minutes to 5PM

i've made a promise to myself to never drink before 5 PM

so close lads

Good job mate

>Buy rum
>It's been a shitty few months so I'm drinking a shot(s) in the morning just to get through the day
>Bring it to friend's house because I have nothing else to bring to a party
>Leave it there
>They drink it all in two days

Well at least that kept me sober for a while...

how much rum? two days to drink it seems long

ahhhhhhh much better

It was one of those big kraken bottles. They are casual drinkers so it was surprising. I then found out that their new room mate who was a bartender and alcoholic cleaned their entire liquor cabinet in a week and my rum was one of the casualties.

anything aged and brown. cognac, armagnac, aged rum, whisk(e)y etc.

Now it's time to celebrate! You know what to do.

You know what will make you sleep through the night? It's a simple solution

Drank 4 strongbows this morning and now I'm done for good. Puked blood last night and decided it wasn't worth it to drink any longer. I was drinking 15 beers a day without even getting drunk any longer. Then I puke blood? What a rip off.

i like your style

I do the same thing but I sleep and wake randomly, so it's more of a I don't drink until at least 8 hours after I wake up. Alcohol always sounds and is so disgusting for me in the mornings.

>enjoyamstelresponsibly.com

Please enjoy, but responsibly.

>Now it's time to celebrate! You know what to do.
Yes, had a nice cup of coffee.

15 minutes early tonight, 30 minutes early tomorrow, 3 hours early the next day etc etc

the "all or nothing" approach doesnt work for everyone. after a few days of being disgusted with yourself and feeling sick, you may feel like drinking again. at that point its probably wise to come up with a plan to limit your drinking.

You know how to make that happen

It's been four days and my laundry is still just sitting in the dryer....
>It's begining

after being fucked up for 3 days including drinking a fifth in less than an hour and piss in my travel bag, its time for a little break.

til sunday. When i got 2 days free and avoid the fucking vodka.

>upgrade fridge
>recently make big pasta bake
>freeze whole slab together like idiot
>today
>pumped for dinner
>can't cut up pasta bake into dinner portion because it's actually frozen
>not used to freezer actually working

And now I'm having McDonalds fuck I need a beer.

Bought a litre of whiskey last night.
Finished it off earlier, went and got 6 cans of Desperados.
2 down in an hour... now wishing I'd bought a few more... fuck it, if I need more I'll get on my bike and struggle to the 24 hour garage.

which country?

probably france
probably drinks label 5

fuck i miss desperados, going to poland in 3 weeks and abuse the shit out of it

UK!

I'd assume it's cheaper over there than it is in England... I've heard from my mate that's engaged to a Polish bird that the Polish FUCKING LOVE TO DRINK and it's really cheap over there for everything including big name brands.

I need friends

Whenever I drink alcohol too quickly I have horrible back and shoulder pain that radiates everywhere except my extremities and lasts 10 minutes. Anybody else have this?

Haha i havent been in the UK so i cant compare prices, a bottle of desperados 0,33 would atleast cost 4 quid here in Norway.

I remember i paid 85 euro cent for a 580 ml desperados.

The cheaper version in Lidl cost like 50 cent, crazy cheap

You should uhhhh get yourself checked out

I have, it's not lymphoma, but I still haven't checked for pancreatitis. It's weird how all people think I'm making this shit up. Even the doctors say it's nothing

Where the fuck do I meet people? I have like 2 real friends and I live in a city on the other side of the country from them. I love going to bars alone but I feel awkward being social when I'm alone. So there goes that.

Has anyone had any luck with like specific interest meet ups? Idk. I just want to meet people. I don't wanna be alone anymore.

Felt like shit the past few days, decided not to drink tonight and suddenly my side is hurting.

Eating watermelon. Hassle-free giver of fluids and sugar. Absolute godsend if you're struggling to keep things down.
Drinking vodka.
Feel, uh, well horrific obviously.

How hard do you booze or did you used to booze?

I get aches and tremors even if I drink moderately now. Probably kindling.

If I could spend my entire life asleep I would be fucking delighted. I fucking hate waking up, I instantly reach for alcohol in an attempt to pass out again.
I wonder what comas are like, and how they can be medically induced...
Brb google

Kek, it never recovers. I have holes in my brain; "lesions" which are irreparable and debilitating in too many ways to bother describing

>child
I can relate to this feel. Prolonged sobriety really does leave you with a feeling which reminds you of childhood. It's an amazing amount of coziness which i wish I could experience again before poison buries me, but that fucking WD barrier is astonishingly impenetrable.

Where you at m8?

>get fucked up
>put frozen pizza in oven
>pass the fuck out
>wake up to fire alarm and pizza as black as Bill Cosby's dick
>still eat a bit of the burnt crust because I always forget to eat when I'm on a bender

whew lads

Try anyway. I get all kinds of shakes, stupor, and hallucinations when I withdraw now. But it's all essentially gone after 1 week sober.

Shit you not, a few months ago I went to do laundry and it had gone so mouldy that it was all in one congealed lump, and even the wicker basket had like a square foot of thick white mould on its exterior. Like half my clothes simply ruined. Worse still, I'd been in bed so long and without realising it lost so much weight, that I spent weeks with literally no clothes. Just a dressing gown. I now have 2 tops and 2 pairs of jeans having ordered them on ebay, and that is it.
I've also just broken my laptop by apparently thrashing around in my sleep. That makes 4 laptops destroyed in less than a year.

Philadelphia

Do you alcohols ever do a solid shit?

>Take anti anxiety before work
>decide to have a few beers after work
>turns out thats a fucking bad idea
>get massive headache and black out after 4 or so beers
>bathroom is redecorated each time I do this
>towels on floor
>garbage in sink
>toothbrushes hiding somewhere
Done drinking unless it is on a saturday.
I either get explosive shits that launch me to orbit or a slug that falls out of my ass.

is this shit real? if so how much is it

Each time i see that pic i get shivers.

i could easily drink that in 3 days and then die in peace

Hey ck, while I don't consider myself an alcoholic, not a day goes by that I would refuse a drink. Right now I'm about half done a bottle of Scotch, jamming out to tunes. Does anyone else just like to drink while listening to music and zone out? I started with Golden Slumbers and let Spotify take it from there. Any hard drinking/relaxing song suggestions? Stuff like Wish You Were Here or The Air That I Breathe if you got em.

I'd buy that if I ever saw it in a shop.

Alcoholism gave me ulcerative pancolitis, so im lucky I don't shit into a bag. I do however shit liquid lava up to 30 times a day.

That's a really cool gif

Nujabes and Buckethead are what I like to listen to for chill music.

Yeah I'm not sure where I ride the line. I drink to mild drunkenness every night, but I mainly just enjoy the relaxation after work while I play some vidya. I have a healthy relationship with alcohol and my drinking hasn't really changed in a while. So whatever. I'm cool with it.

I just bought this bottle of bourbon, it was the cheapest bottle in the store.

How bad is it?

I only ever get the liquid shits when I've been drinking hard for at least 3 weeks. If I take just one day off every 20 days or so my shits are mostly normal.

I've been keto for about 8 months, so I have no complaints about my shits

take a sip and find out

I've gotta go to work soon and I get drug and alcohol tests randomly so I'll take a sip in about 10 hours from now.

>not immediately downing all of it, blacking out and shitting in your bosses office
YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE

fuck dude. That's incredible. How long were they in there? More stories

Why do people like drinking? I've never had more than a couple glasses of champagne but I really don't know how people like that feeling. It feels like my head is spinning and I can't think straight.

Have you tried assisted benzo taper?

That sort of behaviour would probably get me a promotion.

It's a nice break from having to think about all of life's bullshit. Thats my view anyways. In simplest terms it's a form of escapism.

But it's just the room spinning and feeling sleepy. It doesn't feel any better to me. idk

you might just be a pussy

Not being able to think straight was what I needed to participate in normie life, which felt essential to me as a teen and in my early twenties.

Then after a while the drinking habit is established and no longer really helps to normalise, so you end up drinking alone most of the time, especially if you're prone to embarrass yourself as your alcoholism escalates. So the medicine no longer offers benefits but you can't really do without. And then you're trapped in your booze cave by yourself.

That's how it went for me at least. Ultimately the side effects got too bad for me so now I've managed to sober up (10 days in) and as with earlier quitting attempts I've become even more reclusive than I normally am. Willingness to socialise or even interact with other humans in meatspace has dropped to zero.

But lately I've kind of accepted my need for solitude and now that I feel more healthy and wholesome the hermit life feels pretty good.

Wait is this a /feels/ thread on Veeky Forums?

You guys have these here as well?

Well, don't mind If I do. I'll post some feels, most here won't understand how to help someone like me though. So just read and enjoy this story of some anons life

Damn dude that's rough... yeah I've been wearing the same clothes three of the four days my shit has been getting moldy and I have been wearing the same jeans the whole time :/... what laptops do you buy? Shits expensive homie

Spill your guts user, keep it

Oops, meant: keep it al/ck/ related... unless it''s *really* funny

29 in a few months

>No house
>Live 2k miles away from home/family/older friends I once had
>Have a job in a corporate setting
>Currently make 95k a year
>Pretty much have no life at all except the internet and work
>Workaholic most of my life and only focused on money and a career, never thought about getting a girl friend or even finding new friends in a new state I moved to two years ago

>The definition of failure is me

>New office job

Keep telling myself to be more social and talk to my coworkers
Meanwhile, I sit in my cube and focus on work
Guy who is my lead mentioned I should try to make some friends in the office since only talking to two people isn't going to cut it eventually

Its not like I'm anti social, I just don't have the time to focus on saying hello to people I don't actually work with since they're not in my department

Drink your problens away friendo

Find a hobby, fishing and bush walking breaks up the monotony of day to day work life for me.

I don't drink and no interest in drinking alchol

Plenty of hobbies and interests

>Still alone
>Have a guy at work and we only talk about work stuff sometimes
>Don't want to come up to him and talk about life/hobbies since we actually enjoy the same hobby

I'll be alone and miserable than

Different folks different strokes I guess. For me, I forget all about life's different fucking boxes and categorizations, it gives me a meta sort of feeling, which helps me deal with the menial day to day menialness of it all. Where as when I'm hogh, I can see all of the unseen categorizations of life's minuscule problems. I don't know. If drinking doesn't help, try weed. If that doesn't help, kill yourself. That's a joke. user even if you don't think noone cares about you, you're wrong. Suicide is never the answer.

This is the crippling alcoholism thread, friend.
