It’s much easier to quit after you die.

good job getting a job and actually cutting down for it user, i'm proud of you

Ty mate. It's going well. Hoping to cut down just to weekends. (I have to if I wanna reach 40) but the stress of it just pulls me in. Gotta get over it

jaysus, how did you afford that nuch wine being unemployed?

im guessing they were drinking box wine

Can be good if you like that kind of taste if you get the real stuff, can be horrible if you get the fake meme stuff (often advertised as the real deal because of muh thujone nonsense) designed to exploit kids who think it's psychoactive beyond the booze and want to be edgy bohemians and do dumb mistaken fire rituals.

This is a good intro:

If you're into things like Pernod, pastis, ouzo, raki, arak et cetera absinthe a more complex kind of version of that kind of stuff. I like them all, but mostly in the summer.

(you)-test

I think I'm going to die by this time next year, drinking is getting heavier and heavier. Also my liver hurts like hell daily and my urine smells like bleach

Woke up feeling great (in relative terms) at 1pm and have decided to pass on the full glass of gin next to my bed. Gonna have a meal and a coffee and see what happens

I recommend becoming a moderate drinker.

I really want to die soon.

Im such a disappointment to my parents....

Pretty sure death wouldn't make them any more proud, user.

Better to get sober and live a life of quiet desperation until they're gone if their idea of you is what you care about.

I was two hours late to work today because I thought it was yesterday when I would have been off.

I live 15 minutes from work. I tried to play it off as idiocy, but I lost track of an entire fucking day of my life. Also have a lump on my forhead i have no idea what from.

Peering down the abyss fellahs.

>not routinely checking your phone for the current day and whether it is dusk or dawn

>Better to get sober and live a life of quiet desperation until they're gone if their idea of you is what you care about.

>tfw this is my life
I don't think it counts as being sober when I'm drunk and/or high literally every weekend but still.

I think getting cunted on the weekends is acceptable even by normie standards desu

bottleshop people don't even bother talking to me anymore, they just grab the bottle of vodka I buy everyday I hand them the exact cash grab the bottle and walk out

it's a sweet deal desu, no unnecessary small talk or bullshit

>vicious cycle of binge drinking to curb benzo withdrawals and taking benzos to ward off The Fear
wew lad

Are you me?

5+mg and 750ml+ vodka daily

>750ml+ vodka daily
why do I never believe these posts

That's not that much here senpai

Because you're a little babby. It's three cups of booze over the span of sixteen waking hours.

33 days without spirits and 19 days without beer. Won't be too long until I can say 1 month completely without booze.

Because you're a skinny manlet?

Bottle a day is pretty much standard for al/ck/. A bottle a day becomes easy soon enough. There's a lot on here that go way beyond that.

Six days sober after what ended up being about a 5 month binge drinking/working spree. I sleep great, and I'm hungry all the time. I figure my body's missing all those calories. Starting a new good job on monday. I'm very excited, though I don't like how time never seems to stop when I'm sober. I miss the clean cut of a blackout. Wish me luck!

>I don't like how time never seems to stop when I'm sober
holy shit this
even when I'm sleeping I have dreams (or maybe they're not) of trying to claw back into wakefulness

A bottle a day isn't that much for a non-functional alkie with years of tolerance raising.
This isn't the "heavy drinker normie" thread, we're the bottom of the barrel.

I'm tapering zoloft, this is a nightmare, worse than booze.

Any tips? I'm terrified.

Isn't that an antidepressant? Why stop if it works?

It is and it works (OCD mostly gone), but it gives me terrible insomnia, I can't go on anymore.

> mad cravings for beer
> drink half litre of vodka
> still craving beer

what do you call this condition?

Weird.

So you're telling me you never exaggerated for effect when describing how much you drink ITT?

90% of this thread is sob story attention whoring, I find it hard to believe people don't lie about their alcohol intake not to say all do

Vitamin B deficiency.

>what do you call this condition?
being hungry

I'd be more suspicious if someone told me they had DT from drinking beers with friends at the bar every weekend.
Sure, some people may lie on the internet. That doesn't mean you have to be paranoid and consider everything a Jewish conspiracy.

>consider everything a Jewish conspiracy
?

never said that, I just doubt most posts that claim to drink X amount

you also avoided the question I was asking

I never exaggerated my consumption here.

You think people would do that? Just go on the internet and lie?

Maybe you should exhibit some self-control and stop drinking.

>So you're telling me you never exaggerated for effect when describing how much you drink ITT?
Nope. This shit's no joke femelem

oh my god sober sleeps are the best. It's like I just lay down and open my eyes eight hours later like a robot. No fucked up dreams, no waking up to piss three times a night, no lying awake at 2 in the morning while my organs groan and churn

i love to drink...a lot. but i must come to these threads to remind myself what could happen if i take it to far.

good job user, you can do it!

>First drink of the day
>First drink in two weeks

3 days sober now i don't want to think about relapsing

5pm and only on my second beer, even got out on my bike for a ride, fucking cold tho, managed to taper down pretty well this week.

now is the bitch tho, turned down going over to see a mate this evening because 'lets get pissed its friday yay'
open my door and my housemate throws me a beer and says people are coming over in a min and there is a band on at our local

and i have been invited to go bowling tomo with a cutie

wat do boys?

i have a course on monday..

inb4 .. take it steady, there is a reason im here, i have no offswitch, i went out last friday and came back to earth on wednesday..

do i just sit in my room and carry on my taper like a fucking loser? fml

637 days

>not to say all do

Why the hell is anyone questioning the legitimacy of claims of having drunk one piddling bottle? That’s like 28 units, less than 10 faggot-strength beers

Found the naive woman where life is all venti lattes and cats

My dreams come back when I'm sober and I fuckin hate it. My sleep is worse when I drink a lot, but I love not having any dreams. I stopped having good dreams period sometime right before college.

Do you smoke? I have always had a theory that the nicotine withdrawal my body goes through while sleeping negatively influences my dreams. Even dreams that aren't too bad still have an anxious and uncomfortable feel to them.

You would easily believe it, actually not just believe, you would KNOW it is true if you had any experience with alcoholism or been around an alcoholic.

I smoke this little vape thing now but I used to smoke cigarettes a lot. I always kind of just had unpleasant dreams regardless of if I was smoking or not though.

I don't really have good dreams. They're usually not awful but never 'happy' or anything. I am a daily weed smoker so that usually supresses my dreams even when I'm not drinking.

Just drank half a box of goon, vomited, then went back to drinking. Starting to think things might be getting out of hand.

someone make a discord

How about you kys instead?

Not that guy, because I do believe it, but how can the body process that much? I thought 1 shot per hour was processed through the liver

Well i dont think i want to do this anymore. Will probably get a bottle of whiskey tonight afterwork

It just takes time. Like in the early days of drinking like how you could wake up drunk. It's not done processing yet. The higher your tolerance you drink more and it processes faster, creating a cycle of just drinking even more if you want to be drunk a lot.

You first

It was $4 per bottle. Shiraz is pretty good for me. Zero hangovers too bc I'm massive alco.my wife got so mad last night bc Friday night and drinking, but if she cared to make a plan other than cooking very sub-par dinner (which I can never try and give tips on or she gets super mad) I might drink less.

I'm just happy to be employed again with a really good job, but yeah my Mrs got used to me being home almost a month so now she is craving too much attention when I just want an hour or two to chill, play ps4 and get drunk while we chat, not looking deeply into her eyes and listening to her day of going window shopping.

We have a 5 month old baby so that alone should've reason enough to quit but I still can't do it cold turkey. At least I have tapered off a lot. I have started smoking again though with the stress of work. It's just my mindset is so easily converted to the dark side.

I need to kms

Hope the Meet UP godes ok

I just might.

...what do you consider a unit of alcohol?

drinkaware.co.uk/alcohol-facts/alcoholic-drinks-units/what-is-an-alcohol-unit/

Stooped to a new low.

Got black out drunk and went for a walk, ended up screaming a lot of bullshit at neighbor and woke up in jail. I don't remember anything.

Fuck you alcohol, fuck you.

Better than my last night haha gotta love life affirming events involving helicopters and swat ,a pat on the back an overnight Er stay to make one go sober

I got used to it after a while. I’d done such immeasurably retarded things so many times that I refused to let anything bother me. Just glad I never made the local papers. I’m trying to just get high now. I don’t even have the volume up on the tv if I’m stoned.

Oh I made the papers not really saying much but hey my efforts aren't fruitless I guess , yup I'm done with Alceehul. Sticking to grass till I'm dead

Tell your friends no and if they don't like it literally tell them to fuck off. Are they going to fire you or something?

I never go black out drunk, usually I remember a good 10% of it lol.
I've broken my arm twice (doing stupid shit) while drunk and my nose once in a fight while rotten drunk.
Alcohol should be banned. My life would be so much better for it.

Prohibition would kill half the people in these threads. Booze would be twice the price and five times as poisonous.

until tomorrow my man. cheers

Good point user
We are better of dead though the shit it causes for those we love.

hahahaha ok, i was wondering WTF you brits were talking about with your 89p ciders with 3.8 units per, and now fifths with 30. i just assumed you were using "unit" interchangeably with "standard drink". explains

Nah the number of units has to be printed on booze here. That way you can have multiple bottles, multiple types, multiple strengths, and still know exactly how much ethanol you’ve drunk

how many shots can i drink before passing out im a lightweight btw

at 6-7 right now

I'm going to quit paying my rent and live in my car.

I can't take living next to my fucking scumbag drug dealing neighbors anymore, An I can't afford any other place to live so I'm just going to live in my car until I can't take another day of living.

Fuck life

Depends on what time it is, how much caffeine you drank, and your willpower

You can execute special techniques to avoid passing out, when I want to stay awake I put on my motorcycle helmet and crawl in the dog kennel so I'm just uncomfortable enough to avoid sleep. Find out what works for you

As a 20 year "frenemy" of The Fear, I can assure you that barbiturates and NOT benzos are the perfect circle that you're probably looking for. Barbies are harder to find, but if you can lock down a source, your life will improve tenfold.

Because you have no idea.

Eat your mothers shit.

call the cops on them.

I've called the cops on them a minimum of 20 times, This year.

The police just don't care enough to do anything, Occasionally they will talk to them. 99% of the time they just show up and knock...No on answers of course. Then they leave.

I don't leaving my car around a bunch of crackheads and hookers so I park it 3 miles away at my dads house and walk to use it.

Fuck living here

Now I kinda don't believe you.

Ok don't lol.

Literally does not affect me at all. I just simply told you what happens
