Aye, it helps a lot, me Dad has worked on the railways since just after they met in college so at first he'd be working awful hours on the lines and she'd worry, and as he moved up to management the hours somehow got worse and he was still on site, uh, managing stuff I guess, and getting called out at all hours so she's been good at learning how to cope with it, and admitted sometimes she just doesn't, which helped, weirdly.

True that. Was on the verge of being addicted a few times. Would drink a bottle of vodka/jin/jd or 2-3 bottles of wine per night.

Wait? I'm trying to figure how drinking 2-3 bottles of wine or a bottle of spirits a night is not being addicted? I've never been an alcoholic myself, but that does seem like that territory to me.

How long did you keep that up for?

The same could be said about opiates

I have often wondered if the same could be said about raas/Creepy too? I'm not sure he's as true to his scripture as he makes out. ;)

Hee, yeah.. exactly what I was gonna say.
 
Almost a year after codeine use, with subs and six forums later lol. I dunno if I was addicted as I'd onky drink at night but was on the verge of becoming addicted, probably.

Was still drinking heavily when I came to BL but when I was increased to 12 mg subs I just did not crave alcohol in the slightest. Stopped drinking for like six months. I don't drink to that extent now but I'm trying to give it a break for a bit :)

Given its 'quirky' psychological profiling potential I'd be amazed if that hasn't appeared as an actual interview question. Probably at some IT startup run by some creepy, bearded date-rapist.

It was always Michelangelo, incidentally by miles.

You'd be surprised how long you can escape the horrors of bona fide DT-disco-inferno alcoholism, even drinking at that rate.

Not saying it's healthy (and it is alcoholism of a sort), but there you go.
 
Yeah it is shocking. I was drinking around six litres of White Lightning a day on average for a year or two and managed to get off with just being irritable and miserable for a few weeks before another eight months of total and mostly happy sobriety. Never a-fucking-gain but yeah it's surprising what you can drink before you're proper into dangerous withdrawal. Not that I'd advocate doing it, obviously.

Heavy going, when i was younger i got into the habbit of 6 cans every other night during the week and then absolutely wrecked on the weekends, ended up getting edgy nasty hangovers, thought process was foggy for awhile
 
Bottle of whiskey or brandy every night, then out to the late-night offy for more whiskey or a four-pack of Special.

Weekends: Awake to the dregs of last night's bottle (in bed, obv.), finish that and then start on the bottle / cans I'd bought for that morning's breakfast.

Did me no harm.
 
20 cans a day 4.6% (sum times stronger beers) here daily, for ehm.. too long. Now a lot lower, about 2 sixpacks daily.

Yeah, Jack London wrote that it takes 20 years to 'learn to drink' and to learn to acquire the taste. I think he may have been a bit out with his figures, but that was his experience, and everyones physical constitution is different, and there really does seem to be a fuckton more leeway with drinking heavily for months upon months, and its never been a problem to just stop on any given day. That is completely unlike countless other legal and illegal substances i could mention. You really have to work very hard at becoming an alcoholic; being a heavy drinker, or having the taste for it is an an entirely differnt thing.
