Haha not a chance. I have a half bottle of whisky and have been looking forward to it since I woke up this morning. I'll try for a sober thursday/friday though :) I don't know, I'm such a mess but that first drink is always soooooooo heavenly good it's almost worth it.... almost....

Oh you know you mentioned "Dry July" a while back? There's a similar thingy coming up called "Ocsober": http://www.ocsober.com.au/
 
Aww damn. Well I really hope you go through with your sober Thursday and Friday, you will be so proud of yourself afterwards!! I will be so proud of you too <3
Ocsober ay?? Hmmmm *ponders* :)
 
^^ Keep up the good work RL, you're doing so well. I'm really proud of you for doing this <3 :)
 
I've had a couple really close calls with alcohol dependance, the worst being last week. I drank every night for over a week. The thing is, I know my limits very well and I knew damn well I was in for withdrawal. I normally know when to put the brakes on.

Sure enough, I spent Sun, Mon, Tues of last week with terrible malaise and night time anxiety. There was one point where I even felt a bit of delerium. I was looking everywhere for my glasses for over a minute, but they were on my face! The actual cravings kicked in by day #3 and I went out for a few drinks Weds. Took Thursday off and drank Friday. Took it easy Saturday (3 beers) but drank Sunday and Monday. Took Tuesday off and no plans to drink again until this Friday.

It's so tough because I have every opportunity in the world. Gotta stay strong. I'm flirting with disaster.
 
been drinking way too much lately

it's kind of a love and hate relationship , I like the way it makes me feel

but its destroying my insides , alcoholism's fucked

I'm glad you came into this thread. I too have goofed a couple times. It hit me that I really need to cut down/quit for all except special occasions because I have been getting memory spots. Do. Not. Want.

My therapist told me to do guided visualizations that alcohol is poison and if I want a life and a family someday that I have to have a healthy body.

It boggles my mind STILL that I have quit harder drugs cold turkey and not looked back. I'm still mostly off the benzos.

Special thanks to those who have personally helped me - you know who you are.

Charlie <3 I am particularly worried about you, sweetie, you know why. You are a great guy and now is the time in your life when your decisions really start to matter. I hope that you can find the peace and love you seek without resorting to alcohol or other things.

Redleader, you're a rock star. Keep up the good work. :)

Trancegirle - <3 You know how to reach me if you need to talk. I had a breakup in the past dive me into full-on alcoholism... and I was on Wellbutrin at the time (which makes 1 drink feel like 5) so you can imagine how that went. :\ I hope that you are able to heal quickly. You are the sweetest person ever and you deserve all the good things in life. I am glad you are realizing the magnitude of what you have to lose before you lose it. Please, be kind to yourself. <3

OcSober could be interesting. I might participate - I'll need a truckload of benzos though. :\
 
I'm drew and I have a alcohol problem. I can't stop. Beer has takin my sanity. Along with it my grades, my girlfriend, my money. Everything.
I'm still at school, I'm at the make it or break it part of my life.
Pray for me please.
 
21, and I've been drinking like this since my 21st birthday 3/21.
I really thought that I was at the age where I could do controlled drinking.
 
when I turned 21 I became a full blown alcoholic

and I never really drank much before then

it can grab ahold of the best of us , booze provides a comfort zone

its eases pain and emotions
 
no shit, I don't wanna smoke weed, or pop pills, and now that I'm 21 I can easly go buy the shit.



-No triggering posts please.

I hope so. I think you will be. <3 We can never tell with booze, Charlie... that's the only point I'm trying to make. I hope I did not come off as condescending; just letting you know that you're on my mind and I wish you health and happiness. :)

I'm OK today, may have a beer or two later. There's a lot I don't talk about (mostly work) because I can't, but I have a heavy heart a lot of the time. Laughter and love and friendship are truly the best tonics. I think I need to concentrate more on those things. <3

Can I ask, though, that we put potential triggers under tags? These posts are making me want to buy a bottle of something and I can't really do that atm because I am in sobriety mode atm.
 
man i could go for a bowl of post ceral right now, wih fucking strawberries!

dude dont make me feel bad
