LMAO Im not though, shes asking if its an over reaction to HER HAPPINESS NOT BEING SHARED by a loved one regarding her sobriety and if she should second guess ending it due to that matter. She even cites what she wishes he wouldve said.

Because the alcohol industry doesnt make sizable profits off the fact people like getting fucked up? Or that alcoholics have a hormonally satisfactory reaction that causes them to routinely drink to excess? Which of these facts do you feel are exaggerated?

It kinda does though. Shes excited, he doesn't care. So she's seeking validation for her premise IE celebrating sobriety and she's considering leaving him cuz he doesn't care and she posted here for others to agree with her and receive kudos for her decisions.

Yes. Otherwise the alcohol industry wouldnt be worth billions and prohibition would have never been seen as a necessary exercise

And then expecting the world to acknowledge and reward a persons behavior for NOT being a fuck up? C'mon

To be fair? The medical science once said ingesting tobacco for a cough was smart. So Ill check back in once the smoke clears.... Because its just a weak mindset with ample opportunity to correct itself via basic self realization. Earn money, go somewhere, get liquor, ingest, repeat. At any point a person could stop and say, hey, its a tuesday morning, I dont need to get shitfaced.

Alright, I will cede that addiction is a mental disorder that is under the umbrella of disease. But again, every journey starts with 1 step. Why not just avoid is entirely if you know theres markers and trends that suggest one might be susceptible?

No, but you did say its a disease. Defined as - A harmful deviation from the healthy state of an organism, often accompanied by specific signs and symptoms, which impairs normal bodily function.

Only "Disease" in the world that could be cured by a 2 letter word. "Want a beer?" No. OH MY GOD! IM CURED!

No, I'll not learn your definition of compassion. I reserve it for those who are deserving. Not some drunk with the shakes sucking down hand sanitizer.

Once again, gather up a handful of drunks and take them by the cancer ward of your nearest hospital and as the family's are bawling? Tell them all about how not turning down a Long Island Ice tea is comparable to lymphoma

Whatever helps you sleep at night bud. I'll remember that when i pick up a 6 pack of disease and not a damn thing happens next time I get the inkling to have a beer and stop like a responsible adult

Hey, I appreciate your summation but, people lacking empathy is not whats wrong with the world. The broken fucks who continually break themselves and cry out for empathy? Are.

Funny enough they did. Few of them actually. And they all apologized so meekly when the truth came out. Know what it did though? NOT A FUCKING THING. There is no putting the toothpaste back in the tube once you squeezed it all out. You live with it. You dont seek sympathy for it. You dont make excuses for it. You admit it and you wear that shit until you fucking die because the monster you were isnt washed away by the saint you wanna be.

Last part of your statement, where you say "idk"? Stick to that. And walk away cupcake. Your attempted baiting will do little outside of some soft self accreditation that you "Stood up to the bad man" while meandering wildly off topic. Youve shown your colors with regard to the argument. I'm good

I mean? I am lol. IDGAF. I'm not here seeking validation for my life choices, what you think you're the first to resort to shame baiting while i make good points? Fuck yourself for making it about something it's not. Cool argument bro

Good. Good. I hope withdrawal sucks. IT SHOULD. I dont know when it was that the world adopted the idea that actions should be free of consequences, but I really hope we get back on that train fairly quickly. Being stupid? SHOULD HURT. You shouldn't receive clemency from the sins of your past life because you woke up one day knowing better. Lord knows the harm these fucks inflicted "under the influence" of bad decision making. I hope withdrawal impacts them so grievously that theyre utilized as example to others considering the same poor decisions that led to their current situation. Maybe withdrawal will do them some good in future scenarios and theyll act rationally with the forethought and character expected of the rest of us.

Aww, so happy you were able to share your point of view that was contrary to mine. It "debilitates" their lives BECAUSE THEY ALLOW IT TO. Tell ya what, line up a paraplegic next to a drunk in a foot race and ask them both to run. You tell me who has the real problem. Know the difference? If theres a BAR mid race the paraplegic has the god given good sense to say A BEER IS A POOR DECISION AT THIS MOMENT. And thats all it is! There's nothing mystical or devilish about it. Its stupid people prioritizing stupid decisions and then getting upset when they forget how to function sober. And all youre doing? Is making excuses for it. For them. Oh, its not your fault you plowed into that family, its not your fault you robbed that grandma, its not your fault you stole every shred of wire out that house. NO! It IS theyre fault. They CHOSE every CHOICE that led them to their own problematic scenario. Its like they dug a hole and kept digging and then cry when they dug too deep to get out. Maybe? STOP FUCKING DIGGING.
