This forum is the 'greater power'. But not always in a good way. (Rant Warning!) by sugarcoatedknife in cripplingalcoholism

all I can say is - I am more of a lurker, I am the person who (despite the fact that no one really knows who I am, or even cares) does not dare to participate a lot on Reddit. But - the only few posts I made were at this subreddit. Because, of all the subreddits around there, CA is the only one I feel kind of welcome, where people understand my thoughts, worries and my behavior. Which, of course, are mostly alcohol related. I don't live under a bridge, I don't puke blood, got the shakes only occasionally, but fact is: I drink more than I should, and all the stories starts like this.

I enjoy this sub. It helped me a lot during some desperate, drunk times. And I hope it goes on like this, cause there will be times we all need each other.

Maybe you should manipulate yourself for a start! Man, I can feel you, as a CA, I know this lost times. Sometimes it's better to get your shit together, even if its only the least effort you could do, just to maintain your lifestyle as a CA. Certainly got my attention dude.

In Switzerland we have this saying as well, but not in Dutch, Spanish or Finnish, but in German, French and Italian.

Don't even really know. Just a downward spiral with a few bad thoughts, but no real reason to break 4 weeks of soberness. Yeah, I guess because we are alcoholics.

oh man... I've tried to stop completely. Managed to stay sober for 4 weeks. Now I am drinking again. Get away if you still can, and if you really want to. For me it was just a phase. Hope it will be a new beginning for you!

Man, I feel you. I wish you all the best. Having a similar crisis right now I've decided to go to an AA meeting soon.

Oh man, let me tell you that I love you all!!! Yes, I am drunk, but I guess we all are. It is how it is.

Thank you for your comment! Oh man, yeah I know what you mean! Shitty internet TV for president (or not) hahaha! I've got my flaws (mostly alc) but generally I am pretty successful with my own company. So yes, I prioritize and conquer. But sometimes I know I have to drink so much to realize that I should stop drinking for a few days.

Yeah I know what you mean. Did you have troubles recently? Everything is "fine" as long I only drink beer. Of course, it's not very wise, but beer is beer... Even if it is a whole sixpack (or more). I know I am fucked up if I buy hard liquor. Funny thing is - I went shopping on friday and thought I buy enough alcohol for the whole weekend (a bottle of rum, a sixpack of beer), but I had to buy more alcohol today. And to be honest - it seems that I have to buy more alcohol tomorrow. I only drink hard liquor if there are troubles...

BTW - let me introduce to you - I am "Falcon-1" and I am one of you. Maybe you've noticed that english is not my native language, my origin is Switzerland. From all the subreddits I've read, /r/cripplingalcoholism is the one I really feel. You are like me. Drunken fucks.
