I'm entering into a boozier realm where I start to drink as much wine (mostly) as I can to relieve me from anxiety and emptiness. Started to drink at work since there is no one to monitor me. I only feel link drinking wine and shitposting after work if my best isn't around, and even if she is I feel the need for some booze to be able to express myself and not be an awkward wreck. It keep me from thinking and crying when everything seems so fucking grim and tasteless as of now.

Pills keep me away from gout crisis, but as soon as I'll have to go to see the doctor again I want to ask for something less harmful than alcohol to handle that. I given up and accept being a frail little shit, but I fear I won't have the balls to talk to the doctor about my anxiety and lack of well-being and keeping relying on alcohol, putting my already fucked up livers at risk. Reading stories on here to keep my at safe distant from being too dependent on alcohol. I don't romanticize that shit, it's just a tool for me.

Red wine is my beverage of choice. It warms and relax me, it's cheap and potent enough for a bottle to last a night and half a day.

Sorry if it feels blogposty.

You are not an alcoholic by any stretch of the imagination, You probably are just a boring woman who enjoys the attention of going to AA meetings or pretending you have alcohol problems and are edgy.

No alcoholic on earth only drinks a bottle of wine every 2 days and has a drinking problem.

I got my first job at 18 in an off-license (liquor store for burgers). turns out free booze, staff discount booze, having the keys to access booze 24/7 plus being surrounded by booze for hours at a time and being able to drink at work don't make for the development of healthy life habits.

Having"everything" doesn't guarantee happiness, anon. You have to look deeper. Happiness comes from diwn inside. Also, one of the great fallacies of human kind is believing that we should all be happy most of the time. Happiness is fairly elusive and comes in small bursts, not extensive periods of time. If you feel like you have it all, outwardly, then it's time to dig deeper.

I wonder what it is that separates a moderate drinker from an alcoholic? I drink to alleviate some of my problems, but I can go a week without alcool easily. Same goes for the myriad other drugs I indulge in daily, barring a few withdrawals here and there. I have tragedy enough in my life that it coild warrant drinking to excess, and yet I rarely ever drink myself into a coma to forget the pain. Is it a genetic factor? A specific reaction in the brain to alcohol? Or is it a simple lack of ample tragedy? Are my problems simply not bad enough? What makes and breaks a man?

Some of it is epigenetics, some of it is character, some of it is who the fuck knows and some of it is denial. I don't know what your situation is, but it sounds like you do like to have a certain drug induced crutch to help you get along. I think it's stupid to judge a person by that, we're all here for our reasons and equal in our degeneracy, dunno.

I understand that. It's hard when your family is surrounded with alcohol, especially my stepfather. He retired 2 years ago and all he does is watch the news, drink, and sleep. This should be a clear indication to stop but this year was hard when my real father passed away. I can't blame him for the drinking when I drink every weekend. I don't go one weekend without getting drunk and I've been playing it in my mind to stop recently. I need to set myself goals going into next year. More cardio/no drinking. I regularly workout so lifting weights isn't a problem. If I can get past one weekend without drinking I think I could go several more.

The booze are like handcuffs and each drink the handcuffs get tighter. You are reprogramming your brain as we speak. Each drink is more shit to reprogram.

It's even harder to reprogram when you're on anti depressants and on top of that I'm mixing it with CBD and to be fair the CBD is actually relaxing and comforting. I started taking CBD's mid calendar year but I think next year I'm going to replace the alcoholic weekends with a bunch of CBD oil.

I was starting to develop a drinking habit recently, and it was getting pretty inconvenient. I'd binge all night and then have a hangover, and get no studying done. I went to work a few times probably smelling like whiskey and looking like shit. Fortunately, I wasn't addicted, just developing a habit. I broke the cycle a few ways:
1. I stopped fapping while drunk. I decided to fap before drinking. Just think of this, if you jack off while drinking that must increase the pleasure your brain associates with alcohol at least threefold. You will get more excited thinking of alcohol and associate it with sex. This will greatly reinforce a habit or addiction.
2. This could be bullshit but I have a weird feeling about beer and wine. I think that the other chemicals and ingredients, or perhaps the increased amount of drinking you have to do of more impure drinks must increase addictiveness somehow. Vodka, white rum, or similar more distilled drinks just don't keep me "coming back for more" the way beer does.

I figured you guys would know best

As far as budget goes, I could probably drop 40 bucks or so.

I've had a fair amount of the low end beers (PBR, Coors, Michelob, Bud and friends, Leinenkugel's Summer Shandy, Guinness, a couple wheat beers, nothing crazy) along with some non-beer stuff (Mike's and similar stuff, Angry Orchard). It's fine. I liked hard cider and summer shandy the most, but the cheap light beers were tolerable. I wasn't a huge fan of the Guinness; it had a really heavy caramelized onion/soy sauce kinda taste to me.

The only liquor I've ever really enjoyed was flavored stuff. I've had some decent brandy and whiskey before, and I think I drank it correctly, but I wasn't a big fan. I don't really like the "liquor flavor," even in like tequila sunrises or margaritas, the exception being vodka, which I can tolerate mixed in whatever is on hand.

i'd have to know where you're located to possibly give cider advice. i'm from the PNW, which is the apple capital of the country, so i'm spoiled in that regard. my favorites square mile hopped apple cider (the green one, not the red, it sucks) and seattle cider co.'s semi-sweet.

because i don't know where in the world you are, here are some pale wheat ales/IPAs that are nationally available in the US
>stone IPA
>grapefruit sculpin IPA
>green flash west coast IPA
>lagunitas little sumpin' sumpin' ale

those are all super popular ales that are fruity/citrusy (hence why i recommended them for you, inb4 IPA fag posing as alcoholic) and that you should be able to find. i can give you better suggestions based on where you live, but it's also 5 AM here and i'll be hitting the hay soon. i don't drink vodka. i enjoy whisky, especially rye and scotch when i can afford them, but i'm not going to tell you to drop your $30-40 on one fifth of liquor that you may very well not even like. get some beer and cider, default to comparing beeradvocate review scores on your phone in the store if all else fails.

what i've realised is that alcoholism is about your mindset and not about the alcohol itself

there does come a point where you're body has become so dependant on alcohol that you have severe physical addiction but I believe that it's a choice to let yourself get to this state

The idea that alcohol controls my life is ridiculous

And the idea that I need to completely stop drinking to overcome the lifestyle choices which led to this is not true

I have the self discipline to drink alcohol without letting it get out of control, and if it does get out of control that is because of my own decision it's not the alcohol controlling my life


i tried sobriety and all it made me realise is that alcohol never had control over me even at my worst

it was my own personal decisions that led to my life spiralling downwards so badly

i can drink alcohol and continue my life, it is my choice to what degree that will effect me
