The Alcohol thread...

When I am out and about I only really drink a lot if I can't get or can't afford methamphetamine, but I much prefer to use meth in public than get shit faced drunk. I tend to find my drinking much easier to control when I am on meth, because I think a lot of the reason why I often end up so drunk in public is because I am atleast partially using it to help with anxiety. When I have another drug like meth to boost my confidence I don't have to rely on alcohol so much so its easier to regulate my intake I find.

I agree with what you said about alcohol at the right dose, the problem (at least for me) is that it puts you in a mind state where you always believe that more will make it better, so this state is only really attainable for a short while before I end up more drunk.

It is so much easier to avoid alcohol when on ice, I drank a lot less when I was using it, though I loved a 6 pack of draught to come down with if I wanted to sleep. Since quitting puffing my drinking has really gotten out of control, I don't like it but it's hard to stop. I usually crack a beer within an hour of waking up - working from home is not conducive to not drinking (or getting high). I'd still rather this than going back to meth addiction, but I am annoyed that I've traded one addiction for another, though it's my fault of course. Addiction for me seems very trasferable from substance to substance - I've noticed that once you've crossed that line into getting high daily, and that mental barrier is gone, getting addicted to other things just comes naturally.
 
You can't understand a user's mind
But try, with your books and degrees
If you let yourself go and opened your mind
I'll bet you'll be doing like me
And it ain't so bad

What's my drug of choice?
Well, what have you got?
I don't go broke
And I do it alot
Say, I do it alot

layne let his d.o.c get him though:(

haha +1..

Sorry so hear the piss has really gotten to ya footscrazy, but your right on the whole 'better off than the meth amp. addiction'... only advice I can give ya is that if your gonna start drinkin so early, try n spread it out.. I've found my self in your exact position on my days off.. even though when I'm at work, I always drink on my break :p (I work evenings, and we have a bottleshop next door lol)
 
Yeah I do try and spread it out, I rarely get drunk, but beers are weak enough that you can drink them pretty much all day and not get pissed. I usually keep it to about 3-6 beers a day but if I buy a bottle I find it really hard not to just keep going til it's empty. If I have a slab as well I'll just keep drinking - if it's there I'll drink it, so I try and just get a sixer at a time because I usually can't be fucked driving to get more after I've finished it. Prob not such a worry for the guys but I need to stop drinking beers too because it's giving me a beer belly! Just another thing I need to worry about after quitting puffing, haha, with an ice habit you can eat junk and never put on weight so I have to unlearn some bad eating habits.
 
i need to stop drinking lager, gonna end up a right pot bellied fat bastard

Does anyone else find that after weeks of drinking too much , theres an increase in anxiety and a lack in motivation?! I seem to get this off almost every drug :{
 
....I know what a hangover is you nonce, but anxiety was never something I experienced with it.
 
^^
Never had the hangover blues? I get anxious when I'm hung over all the time. It's pretty much part and parcel of the experience these days and it's the worst part of a hangover. It's the same with lots of my friends as well. I've often spent Saturday or Sunday mornings stressing over some incredibly minor thing that I did or said the night before. Our ironic hangover catchphrase has become "everything is bad because I am bad." Often after massive parties my friends and I will meet for breakfast to reassure one another that everything is fine and nobody hates us. It's a way of dealing with hangover blues.

It gets worse as you get older as well. I'm 27 now but this only started happening in the last couple of years. I know a few people in their 30s who stopped drinking because a massive Saturday night on the piss could leave them feeling anxious for days afterwards and drinking was no longer worth the crippling self doubt.
 
I get the alchy anxiety too. There's a reason for it, which I can't remember much about, but something to do with the alcohol suppressing glutamine, then when you stop drinking your body goes into overdrive producing glutamine, which causes anxiety, the shakes, not being able to sleep etc. There's lots of long term effects on the brain too that contribute to anxiety after drinking but I think it's that glutamine one which causes that acute adrenaline anxiety the next day.

Whenever I wake up from drinking too much I have maybe one or two seconds where I feel fine, then all the memories from the night before start coming in and I absolutely tear myself to shreds for all the dumb things I've said and done. That anxiety is the worst part of a hangover imo.
