Drinkin is part of a social culture.....however when you can't go without a drink.....then its a problem....oh and when you can't remember what you did the night before and you are wearing someone elses clothes - thats a problem too
-
Alcohol - where do you draw the line
-
thats the best part of a good night out, not remembering what happened and peicing it together from recipts and various items you aquired. always fun!
-
Depending on your weight and tolerance, 12 beers chased down with hard drinks is enough to make most people go loco. That much alchohol would surely eff me up for a few days anyway. You might want to slow down a bit and especially stay away from that 100% alcohol, that stuff will kill ya.
-
my tolerance is going down, i only had a bottle of wine and a few pints and shooters and some weed and i was fucked last night! i duno with alcohol though, i'm getting bored of it

well with whole deal of drinking is when, what, where, and how often.When: If you are drinking during the whole day that is never good.What: This is important because if you drink so much that you will pretty much drink anything at any time of the day.Where: This is also important b/c if your drinking sinks you to drinking in a very lowely place, that is bad.How often: Biggest thing. This is how it all is panned out. If you are drinking more than two times a day (by drinking I mean if you were to down a 6 pack or have a few martinis or something, then stop and start back up again...) So if you drink more than two times then you need to stop, if you are an alcoholic, or pull back if you are not. Well I went to counseling for my drinking and I was told by a alcoholic abuse conselor that i was not a drunk. SO i have toned it back. I may party (drink) once or twice a month.

I'm going to be an asshole and say that your signature is just plain ignorant.
-
The picture of the guy???
-
Yeah OK, but what's ignorant about the picture (besides it being way too big)? Actually, I think she's responding to drmandle but I'm just ragging on her for not replying to the appropriate person. It's confusing when someone just hits reply to the last post in the thread.
-
what the fuck is "plain ignorant" about my signature then?
-
i drink so much less now its good! ive got so much more money, i dont have hangovers 2 or 3 times a week. i can still fire it up when i want but i duno. theres something liberating about freedom from substances like pot and booze
-
Well, I my glad to hear that you are at piece with whatever was causing you to drink. Just keep in mind that some of us has a longer haul... It is all that we have, or at least it is what it feels like. Don't give me that "You just need support from love ones" I have that. Still, I feel like shit. drinking seems to be the only thing that has ever been there for me in the long run. I have a life, a job, and a family. Everone thinks that I am ok, the truth is....I'm not. My family thinks that I am crazy to want to quite drinking, even when I do it is best.......
I just want to say thanks...for the people who will listen to me. -
I would say you have a problem. And I don't say that to be mean, but I used to be the same way. Fortunately, I (just like you) realized what I was doing and I was able to get it under control rather than let it control me. It's a rough road, but you can make across.... Good Luck !
And I hope you realize, weed isn't any better than alcohol, it can still destroy lives, you just don't wake up with a hangover the next morning... :laughing: -
in different parts of the world, like america, people often view drinking as a problem, in ther parts of the world drinking is a custom and a major part of the culture. but as with anything whether it be gambling, sex, partying, lying, work, etc.....over indulgence tends to always be bad and can/will lead to mental, emotional, physical and socialogical problems, not only for you but for others around you. so let this be something you learn and think about before you go off and have to much of a, " good-time ".
-
I am proof of that, to anyone who does not believe...PM me if you must and i will explain why.
-
it's good that people can relate to what i wrote because I just make this sh*t up. and every so often it makes sense.
-
yeah but i have too many problems of my own to fix before i can start to help others.ya know what i mean?!
-
I am a relationship counselor to all my friends. i sit with them and help them, yet I cannot hand le my own relationships. I always get screwed over by obvious signs that i notice when i talk to them, but cannot notice on my own...
-
me, i'm the big brother to all my friends it's like the look up to me, to make everything alright or straighten out all there f*ck-ups. i hate to say this but it's like i'm the king and my girl is my queen and all our friends won't do anything with out our approval or something. for instance, our friends mike and kim wanted to break-up but before they did he came to me and she went to my g/f and they asked us what to do. but they said nothing to anyone else. I know i'm not better than anyone else but it's like they (our lil'click we hang out with) can't/won't do anything with out checking with us first. it would be easy for some one in my position to get a big head but i don't and i guess that's why people like to turn to me in times of uncertianty. damn that's pretty deep and totally off the topic of this thread!?sorry....
-
feel the same way, but i lost a lot of that b/c of my bad semester.
-
