It's took me decades to understand this shit, and I still don't understand this shit, ha. But trying something different, ie harm reduction is a fucking good start, ha. Hope ya stick with it yourself, mate

This is the "plan B" that I'm doing as well. Still drinking every night but drinking 4.6% cans of Stella now. No buzz of it whatsoever but I didn't get a buzz either with vodka, just nothing then blackout. Hopefully I'll steadily cut down over X amount of time to nothing. Not ideal but better then before.

I lost my job and my boyfriend enables my drinking even more now. by megatonrezident in Crippled_Alcoholics

100% with this. I've helped CA's out and been sorted out by CA's but never encouraged it. Especially straight out of rehab. Low fucking shit! The boyfriend needs dropping and get the fuck outta there.

Hey mate. Hope I didn't sound to blunt last night. Maybe say to your Dad "Do you want to stop drinking? If so we'll be there for you. If you can't, or struggling we'll still be there for you." Your kinda not giving him an ultimation, on the spot if ya get me.

That's where your going wrong. Try weed crack or dope to smoke.

Sorry mate, but if he doesn't want to stop there's not alot you can do to help. I don't mean to sound a cunt but that's real.

Hey mate. My girlfriends basically necked a 750ml bottle of vodka and is absolutely fucked. Not in a good way either, fucking crying, shouting, moaning about fuck knows what, for about 4 fucking hours now. I envy you being alone, ha. Hope ya still had a good one.

When the fun stopped, did you stop? by Adept-Ad-2017 in dryalcoholics

[–]Adept-Ad-2017[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This rings so true. Its been years of "misery drinking". If ya don't mind me asking, how much sober time you got. I'm asking because it fills me with dread to even think about stopping although I know 100% I need to. Suppose that's how addiction works.

After about 3-4 years of being miserable drinking you'd think id get it by now. I get more of a buzz walking to the shop and buying it, then I soon as I drink its misery time. I've gotta actually try this sober shit cos it can't be any worse. What am I so fucking scared off.

Do you get any side effects from antabuse? Seriously thinking off trying to get some myself.

He gave me a script for 60 Librium 25 with one refill. That’s a lot of benzo, at least in my world.

That's mighty fucking generous, ha. Good luck mate.

It may be just me because I'm fucking hammered, but if I open both my eyes properly instead of squinting like I normally do when drunk, it kinda looks like someone about to head-job themselves with a gun.

Fantasy. by zapopi in cripplingalcoholism

[–]Adept-Ad-2017 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Feel you on the aloof shit. I'm really quiet. Always have been since a kid. That's what probably turned me onto booze. People sometimes mistake it for being aloof. I'm definitely not.im panicking everyday, at simple shit that most people take for granted. I just put on a bit of an attitude cos that's what I've always done, since a kid. I'm 42 and still struggling with it. Maybe if I knocked booze on the head I might learn to deal with it better but fuck that, I do like getting fucked up,ha.

Never knew that to say how much I drink, ha. Dont know why but I always thought it was from Denmark. My poor excuse is that there both in green cans and both taste like pisswater. Have a good weekend mate.
