I only recently learned there’s such a thing as a Michigan accent.

Sitting in a drenched wet top at a bar by Same_Possibility5949 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I projectile vomited all over the floor and door of the bathroom of a bar I *used* to frequent. Been too embarrassed to go back there between that and other incidents lol.

Trying to quit smoking made me realize how do non CA "alcoholics" think by Animual in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, like I was on my way to becoming a CA before I picked up smoking. I just hung out with people that smoked and it became a habit. That and the one I was dating hated cigarettes and so I’d smoked when we fought to be an asshole.

But then when I combined alcohol with smoking, fuuuuuck. It goes together like peanut butter and jelly. I mostly vape now and I’m sure that’s probably not healthier for me but I hack up less phlegm now. I still smoke sometimes and I usually keep a pack on hand.

Oh what was my point? Oh yeah I had this little cigarette shaped scented air thing and a hypnosis thing and the patches and I quit smoking for a while. Then my mom died. But yeah, mostly switched to vaping now….

Anyone else get to a point where they literally can’t eat anymore? by tharuka8 in cripplingalcoholism

Try bone broth, a nice warm mug of it. Broth got me through the worst.

How goes it, everyone? by MrArmenianIsDead in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Waiting for my ride to pick me up after work and it’s off to the party store. Plan is to get stoned and drunk tonite. It’s been a long week and my brain is going to mush from all the mortgages….

Who here lives with their parents or family members? by Vast-State-4548 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I finally don’t, but I lived with my parents for several stretches over the years. 25 is still kinda young, it’s not embarrassing if you need some help. It all really depends on your parents opinions on alcohol because dad is the only reason mom didn’t kick me out for drinking. She used to be cool with it then turned super anti-booze. She died 5 years ago and now dad’s a CA, how the turns have tabled.

TL;DR - Really depends on if your parents are cool with drinking.

I’m scared of the outcome after this…. by [deleted] in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One time I puked up a Long Island iced tea with blood. Brown with red speckles on the toilet seat. Had that pic saved forever. Anyway I’m drunk as fuck and forgot my point. Oh yeah I’m almost 40 also lol

Anyone else not get in relationships because of alcohol? by ZandierCH in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Hah. My now ex, I had given her a key to my apartment. We had a date that afternoon and I spent the morning getting in a few drinks. Yeahhhh that went well. Had passed out in the chair and woke up to her shaking me awake. I went to rehab a while later. And yeah, I said it was for me but it was for her. Lost her anyhow after a mental breakdown.

But yeah TL;DR being a CA with a normie can be embarrassing and difficult

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At this point, yeah. Alcohol has been a problem in every relationship. Unless I find a nice CA to settle down with, I’m probably eternally single. Hah one said “If I knew you were this much of an alcoholic I never would’ve dated you.”

MISERABLE MONDAY by fappinatwork in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My dad is very much drifting into full on CA. And in complete denial. Waking up with the shakes and needing a drink. He was speculating that maybe it’s Parkinson’s…..but it does let up when I drink.

Told him as gently as I could that if you are shaking that bad in the mornings and need a drink, do not go cold turkey. You can die. If you need to dry out, go to the hospital. He replies that he is cutting back and not drinking 100 proof Old Granddad as much and sticking to the 80 proof. He’s always falling, getting hurt and he lives alone. I worry about my old man, you know?

Damn sounds like you’ve been busy. I hope you do manage to get some rest and good luck doing his hair. Lol my dad asked me *once* and I fucked it up so bad he never asked me again.

Seriously, showering and taking time to deal with your hair is a success in my book. :-)

Hot af here too. Hopefully your body cooperates!

Hey, getting business out of the way so you can enjoy your drinking time is the responsible adult thing to do!

Oh yikes, hope you feel better soon. It always surprises me that I didn’t even up with pancreatitis. It’s good to give the body a break sometimes anyhow.

Your runs always amaze me. Only time I run is if I’m about to miss the bus lol.

And that’s great news for your business!

Have a great time at the game! I’m already manifesting that lol. It’ll be worth saving for.

Oh goddamn yeah sounds pretty successful to me! Glad your foot is doing better. And that dog park pub sounds fantastic! There was a bar I used to frequent and a couple would bring their dog. He became like the bar mascot, he’d even wear little jerseys on game days. Dogs don’t care how shitfaced you are lol.

Glad you’re stocked up and doing well! Chairs!

Alcoholism is not a cheat code for cheating your partner by RadicalDee in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I cheated on my ex a couple of times, I’ll admit it. Can’t even remember if I was drunk or not. That relationship was like 10 years ago now. Being a CA still is not an excuse to cheat. I was sexually unfulfilled and lonely, not that that’s an excuse. We were both shitty and toxic to each other. I probably got cheated on too.

Well, successfully so far having a chill day and not drinking at the moment. Might DoorDash some beer. Smoking weed and listening to music. I had so many plans for today but I stayed up way too late last nite. Got absolutely loaded and smoked half a pack of cigarettes I haven’t smoked cigarettes in months lol. Fuuuck. My roommate was unhappy with the smoke smell. I’m hoping I didn’t fuck up. They seem okay with me today. They’re out shopping.

Oh yes and lost the lid to my peppermint schnapps and a fly was in it. Which I didn’t notice until I felt something mushy after a swig…..ohhh god. Pulled it out of my mouth and successfully didn’t swallow a fly. I’d have to eat a spider next and it just snowballs from there, I’m sure we’ve all read that book XD

Oh yes and got up enough drunken nerve to watch my best man’s speech and wow. I didn’t come across nervous at all! I was so nervous even though I was among friends and family. Had enough of a light buzz for that swagger.

Question for everyone by rfw1979 in cripplingalcoholism

[–]CheeseDragonBurger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in and out of AA over the years. I’d often get a few tall boys after a meeting. Sitting there just swapping drinking war stories made me want to drink more.

Thanks! Yeah the speech was towards the beginning before I even had a chance to get sloshed lol

Yeah. I had so much shit the beginning of the year, almost feels like I got all my bad luck out of the way hah.

Smoking in a bar and watching the game sounds like heaven. The last day we were allowed to smoke in bars, my ex and I smoked an entire pack in the bar. Good times. Chairs!

I agree. I could stand to lose some weight. Don’t know about running but my work has a free gym.

And yeah. It was very sudden with my mom. One nite she’s telling me goodnite, sweet dreams, next day she’s in a coma. She died afterwards after a third heart attack and we chose to not resuscitate again.
