Alcoholism

Does anyone ever wonder if they are alkies (question mark is a weird korean symbol) I can`t remember drinking so often in my life, and when i do its almost like there is no limit.The biggest culprit is boredom for me, as well as the fact you can go to a club here and get bottles for 50$. Thoughts on what defines alcoholism(question mark lol) For starters i think you have a problem when you wake up vibrating like micheal j fox.

hello my name is jay and im an alcoholic.

Does it affect your daily functioning? Does it affect loved ones?

If it doesnt, you are in the clear.

naw i only drink weekends, but i`ve been getting really wasted even by my standards. Last week some chick whacked me in the face because i told her to shave her mustache. I sort of enjoyed it. I also get free drinks on saturdays, and last night i trainwrecked like 3 times...maybe it does affect.

I don't see the point in getting wasted. It just makes people look like total douchebags. Then again, some people can never stick to their limits..


Posted by elFreak on Apr-13-2008 05:19:

well to be fair i never go out to get completely knackered.._.but usually what ends up happening is a see a girl i like we both start talking and then power drinking so we can have an excuse to why we are whores in the morning. Sorta like jesus...i am a douchebag.

If drinking is interfering with your work, you're probably a heavy drinker. If work is interfering with your drinking, you're probably an alcoholic.

I agree.

I used to drink daily, before work, after work, during work (mind you I work on a oil rig so yeah... it affects my daily functions.) My gf and I had a hudge fall out the otherday because I would go on drinking binge's. 7 days sober without anything not even a beer! I've gone for months before, hense im not an alcoholic I just drink alot when I do drink.

But im gonna prove her wrong and show her a totally sober version of myself. Well alil roll here and there with some ski'in and alil herb doesn't bother anyone

Well there you go.

As long as you control the alcohol and not the other way around.

Try to take a week or two off from drinking and see if you can handle it. Or at least reduce it a bit.

Better yet, since you seem to brag so often about picking up chicks, and assuming it is true, make it a challenge for yourself - try to see if you can pick up chicks without alcohol.

i completely agree. i can count on one hand the amount of times i've actually gotten wasted. i know my limits really well and i try not to go past them. not really a big fan of doing stupid shit in the morning that i will regret, along with hangovers. a lot of times, people just get drunk so that they will have stories to tell the next day. and then they repeat the process again.

As long as you don't wake up in the morning saying to yourself "I need a beer right now" or can't go an entire day without thinking of drinking, you're fine. Just because you drink hard on the weekends doesn't mean the sauce has control of you. At least not yet.

+1
but taking off a week or two is NOTHING... i took a year off,, it makes ur tolerance of alcohol weaker so... instead of drinking a twelve pack I go with a six

just my two cents

The less one drinks, the drunker they get when they do drink. Two/three beers and I'm good...seriously


Posted by Lira on Apr-13-2008 19:14:

I think I only drank more than twice a year in my early twenties... and, that's it. Being Brazilian, I'd rather get wasted on coffee than on alcohol

see my problem isnt drinking everyday. It doesn't interfere with my life or anything. I will just go out to a club/bar on the weekend and start the evening moderately nipping at a few drinks.If i play i drink for free. A few hours later i become frank the tank and don't stop. Its like a local foreigner disease, its so boring (and cheap to drink!) here that we lose our minds and go nuts. Some people stop because they get sick, can't walk or act like douches. I never get ill, can always stand and im not really any more douchy than i am when sober. The next day though i feel like my brain and body have been raped by Mike Tyson. As mentionned before the possibility of tang is always a contributor. The more i drink the more handsome i get.


Posted by nchs09 on Apr-14-2008 14:01:

Ya dude its a problem... If you think its a problem, then it is. Stop drinking. If its not a problem then it shouldnt be hard.


Posted by elFreak on Apr-14-2008 14:35:

yeah but unlike levar burton i cant just sit at home with a book on saturday and imagine im having a good time.

nigga fuck yo rainbow.

lol dude you are just a social binge drinker not an alcoholic. I've known a few alcoholics and they did crazy shit like drinking first thing in the morning, drinking every day of the week, getting drunk at lunch and then going back to work, getting so trashed that they passed out in an alley and then got up the next morning and went directly to work in the same clothes they wore the day before, etc.

sounds to me like you just need to plan ahead and have yourself some cocaine for the day after


Posted by echosystm on Apr-14-2008 14:45:

i drink very rarely, but when i do, i really do... like you know to the point of being scared to try and get a taxi by myself.

i guess it's because i only drink when i'm either excruciatingly happy or painful.
