When to say no....alcohol....

haha I've had shockers of nights on vodka, there's a dance club we go to which serves double shots for the price of one before 1030 so of course I knock back as many vodkas as I can before then and get absolutely trashed. I've had heaps of fun nights but feel like crap the next day - problem is, I rarely get sick as such, mostly dizzy and really bad headaches. This basically means many wasted weekends.

I've not been out for a couple of weeks as am saving for holiday but this w/e might be a little different. ;)

Everything in moderation I suppose but alcohol has always been my drug of choice ... unfortunately. =D
 
Hmm... I used to be a big drinker and used to drink very large quantities of alcohol, and of course, once you get to a certain stage and common sense dissappeared with the last 15 pots, you see no obvious reason to slow down or stop.

For me I was 19 when I made the conscious decision to stop drinking like I used to. I realised that although I thought it was great having massive memory loss but later hearing funny stories about it, it was damaging my body, expensive and people just arent their best when they are drunk. It wasnt till I slowed down my drinking that I realised that people are usually very repulsive when they are drunk and not all people accept it like your mates, other drunk ppl, etc. will. I do accept that there are times and places to be drunk, a barby with your mates is a great time, but when you are amongst the general public it is not really acceptable.

My advice is to take note of how many drinks you have had and to realise that some drinks, especially wine and unmeasured drinks, will get you drunk quicker. It is also very easy to slip up when drinks are free, that usually results in drinking quickly, which leads to drunkeness, which leads to surfing on the roof of a car up the main street of a town or sleeping naked on the roof of a phone box. It all really comes down to pacing yourself and thinking if you really want to look like a drunken fool.

On the topic of hangovers, the best cure is to avoid dehydration. In my college time at uni I master the art of going out after dinner and having about 20 pots of beer, then about the same of rum, then finishing the night off with a few shots of sambuca, but before going to bed the most important thing was to force myself to drink about a litre of water so I could get to my 9am lecture (or have a few beers in the morning if a day of drinking was scheduled).

All in all drinking is just about thinking about what you are doing and being mature in your approach. Of course you must drum it into your head that although you may not think at the time you are very drunk, your judgement is long gone. In a way I think it is just a matter of growing out of it :).
 
why is binge drinking so bad? i drink heavily 20drinks + twise a week and see no real problems besides huge memory loss, and i seem to "miss" things. I love it.
But soon i will have to slow down.....
 
My whole 18th year I drunk really hardcore, got smashed everyweekend and drank a fair bit during the year... Then I turned 19 and a friend introduced me too pills and not long after speed. Since then I have never looked back... drinking pretty much sucks in comparison. I used to do so much stuff that I would regret, and then the throbbing headaches (hardly ever threw up so I always had really bad hangovers).
Now when I am at the club I look at all the drunk people fighting and generally making fools out of themselves and just laugh. I still drink but do not feel the need to get completely blind anymore...
 
ALCOHOL: Let's face it, its dying a long, slow and painful death. Don't get me wrong, this drug will be around for a long time yet, but with all the new party drugs coming in i believe that in ten years time alcohol will be excluded purely to the realm of novetly, or as a companion to food, drunk purely for taste and not for its highly OBSOLETE effect.

I think that designer drug technology should progress enormously over the next 20 years.... It may sound like sci-fi, but i can imagine new drugs coming out in the future that are so much more subtle and well-defined than current MDMA concoctions. We should have special pills that can target individual situations... For instance, meeting up with friends for a Sunday BBQ? Why drink beers and feel all bloated and have to piss every 5 minutes when you could pop a new designer pill and feel nice and tipsy and stoked for the entire duration of the afternoon? Just an example... But really, alcohol is SOOOO crap and i'm so glad i've given it up completely.

FORGET ALCOHOL AND BRING ON ECSTACY LEGALISATION!!!!

PLUR :)
 
i love my alcohol too much i would have to say :) that, and my friends do as well! i'm trying to cut it down a bit at the moment, but its hard when so many close friends have 21sts! all the toasts! hehe (a lame excuse, i know!).

more designer drugs would be good, but its going to be a while before they're more socially acceptable. most of my drinking friends wouldn't touch a pill at all. there has to be a mass change around :)
 
i had probs with alchohol, i'd go on several week long benders and the like...

i had a massive tolerance to vodka UNTIL one day i went out and drank a huge amount but i didnt feel a thing - didnt get a buzz until all-of-a-sudden it hit me like a tonne of bricks and i passed out. then yarfed *a lot*.

this happened 3 times in a row when i went out and i got the message that maybe those particular good times were over. i've had a few drinks since then, and have managed to maintain my composure.

i have found that a nice long rest from the alchy tends to reset some of the behaviour patterns and when you go back to it, you do so with a new respect and have only a few. also, if you've had a nice long break, you turn into a cadbury and get really afraid that more than a couple of drinks and the world will start spinning in that really nasty way
 
i'd just like to say *GO ME*

i went to my bestfriend's 21st last night and two weeks in to me giving up alcohol I didnt cave :) I was sooooooooo stoked. I didn't take anything, smoke anything, drink or eat anything...and the best part of all, it was the most unreal night I have had in a long time. And my bestfriend was having the best night of her life. Granted she doesn't remember it but I will never forget the look on her face throughout the entire night :) Such a tops effort on my behalf *pats herself on the back*

If only my other bestfriend hadn't chucked his guts up :P *hugs* you looked like you were having fun *shrugs*
 
haha
would we perhaps know this other best friend? :)

not drinking at a party, esp a significant one for a close friend is so hard to do. i'm way too weak willed to do it :(

then again, i might give the booze a rest after my 21st last night as well hehe
 
hmm jubas i dont think you'll be giving up anytime soon, doesnt sound like you :P

i think i'm the only one who actually knows what went on at the party actually, haha sooooo good remembering stuff *yay* i'm just soooo tired, two hours sleep is so not enough, tops effort for someone completely sober :)
