How do I reduce my tolerance?

Already drinking more calories of booze than food, so eating less won't help.

I've stopped drinking for two weeks at a time but within two days of drinking again I'm back up to two bottles of wine and a sixer to even get a fair buzz.

So guys, I'm on day uh... three withdrawaling... was in the er day one. I've been trying to sleep more through what is probably the 150th withdrawal in my life, because the dreams.... sometimes they're amazing, like when I wake up all I want is to fall back to sleep and just stay there in them.... forever, then I'll nod off... AND HORRIFIC NIGHTMARE again.... so I've decided, with what brain or life I have left, I'm going to write a series of short stories... or one big one, not sure how that works.

"Ten minute skits, a journey through alcohol withdrawal"

Being that you really only sleep for minutes at a time in withdrawal, seems fitting. I have storys of dreams of my own, mostly the nightmares i've written out a little. does this sound fucking stupid? am I really losing my mind?

If your stomach lining were entirely gone, it'd be the equivalent of drinking bleach. Your stomach would eat itself.
That'd be incredibly hard to do though, most likely you have a couple nasty ulcers from fucking up your stomach lining in a couple spots, and it's just bleeding into your stomach a lot.

Go to the hospital, they'll give you some meds and REALLY strong antacids to basically make your stomach stop poking holes in itself, and then you'll have to take a bunch of bullshit and restrict everything you eat and drink for the next 3 months while you let your lining regenerate itself.

Reminds me to pour one out for the Wine and Spirits guy down the rode.

He sold wine and liquor in a relatively nice area. Problem was this is Cincinnati, Ohio. This city is SATAN when it comes to liquor licenses. Especially selling it. Even big name entrepreneurs who come here to set up restaurants that serve alcohol get their shit pushed in.

In the end Wine and Spirits guy just couldn't afford to pay all the fees. He closed in march to switch to a wine only format. (The hard stuff is where they kill you.) but sadly he could not recover any feasible business model and his business never reopened.

I'm not nearly on the level you guys are, since I only drink on the weekends, but I'm going to try to go without booze this weekend.

I just feel bad because I've been doing it steadily for a few months, and I always drink by myself because all of my friends either moved away, or are pussywhipped by their gfs who don't like to leave the house on the weekends so we never do anything social. Also my gf doesn't drink. I end up getting smashed by myself, ordering a pizza and playing a video game or watching Netflix. It's become a tradition I think I need to break before it gets worse. Wish me luck.

You guys should get a "withdrawal kit" before you do this. Get some opiates, benzos, kratom, ambien, whatever. I went through WD on something (not alc) a couple weeks ago, and had a few of those things handy, and I only experienced a couple hours of nagging anxiety and restlessness a couple of days. Felt totally normal by day 7, and had been able to work at 90% capacity the previous few days.

Granted, what I was doing wouldn't produce WDs as bad as advanced alcoholism, but get drugs to help if you have contacts.

Thing is, heroin doesn't help one bit (don't like the stuff anyway, nearly killed me too many times and hugely overrated imo) and given how hopeless I am at avoiding a relapse very soon after a detox, I'd end up using shitloads of benzos and end up addicted to those cunts too.

>> No.9026771

opiates don't really work at all for an alcohol withdrawal, i've bought lorazepam(knocks you out quick, short duration), klonopin(longer lasting, weird side effects) and xanax bars from friends/people for alcohol withdrawal and the xanax with some gabapentin and indica weed worked the best.

Surprised. Seems like opis would be perfect for alc WD since they wrap you in a warm blanket that keeps our anxiety stress and makes the world just seem right.

Yeah--benzos can be addictive is shit, but the trick would be just to buy enough to get you through 3-5 days, however long the bad part of the WD is. You'll still crave them the first day you stop taking them, but it won't be a real WD like from a longterm habit.

Anyway, good luck with your WD.

That does work, but you need to be careful not to jump back into a drinking binge.

What helped me stop drinking was to taper off. If I tried to outright quit after a lot of heavy drinking I had a hard time doing that. But if I cut back the drinks slowly then I got around that problem. For example, if you were having 10 drinks a day then cut back to 8 for the next couple of days. Then 6. Then 4, etc.

I drink six beers every day, usually more in the weekends. I don't like going without it but I can easily. It's a good life of middle ground, and I have the comfort of knowing that if my girlfriend dies or leaves me I can slip into full on alcoholism, which is how I lived before I met her.

Habits come and go (and come back), addictions stay. (Possibly go away after years, it's considered not worth trying.)
For me, alcoholic is when you can't moderate, the booze's demons are stronger than your will (or you're too much of a faggot to have enough will.)
If you can drink moderately, good for you.

So glad I grew outta drinking although i never considered myself an alcoholic. Maybe 3-4 times a week I'd buy a 12 pack of beer and drink at least 10 of them. Some nights around 15. No bad hangovers I just hated the feeling of waking up not sure what I did the previous night terrified to look at my texts..how do you guys live like that? At my worst (18-20) I would buy a bottle of Devil Springs and a couple Steel Reserves and get blacked out..I was a burden to all my friends some who rarley drank.

Drank less and less because I preferred opiates over the years and since I started using Dope I stopped totally. Only thing I miss is that habit was easily affordable and easily obtained. Never dealt with withdrawals but they cant be too worse than heroin WD's and you are never 40 miles away from getting a fix.

Getting fucked up now means I'm never altering how I act too much, never worry about blacking out and making an ass of myself or getting in fights. Put's me in a euphoric confident state of mind that attracts girls..can play video games..isn't a day-ending commitment. IT's still a shitty hard life but I can't imagine going back to being a drunk and these threads remind me that it could have gotten much worse. However you can be a more casual drinker with a social life and not everyone becomes a drunk as opposed to Dope being a All-in type drug.

I'm one month sober and am currently jobless and living with my mother, feel the exact same way as you. My mother is currently having problems with my brother, and it's all one big mess. She came to me crying today... I'm usually quite shut off, but I really put in the effort to console her.

Something clicked in my brain during this. I just suddenly said I'm not drinking again. She looked so happy and hugged me... I've had serious problems with alcohol in the past, I've wrote a lot of stories down in these threads, some people don't believe and think I'm joking, but I never joke about how alcohol can fuck up someone's life.

I have an addictive personality. I really want to drink but I've seen myself hit rock bottom, it's not worth kidding myself that I can enjoy alcohol responsibly, no matter how reasonable it sounds in my head.

The point I want to make is it's better to live a sober life whilst having family, friends and respect, than to be having temporary enjoyment and be left alone, useless to everyone... death creeping close.

Keep it up and think of your family. If that doesn't work, learn to respect yourself and realise not taking a drink requires a lot of invisible effort.

I drink because I am bored, and because I enjoy my alone late night time, I suppose, and partially because it's in my genes. I enjoy it.

Wasn't som uchof a problem until I started working from home, then kind of lost that job, and was just doing the SAHM thing. Husband enables my drinking because it means he always gets laid, and I don't give too many shits about his smoking or Vidya. I don't drink until the kids are in bed, but... You know, long nights, squinty mornings.

I start a new job tomorrow, I think the more hours I put in working outside the house the better things will be. When I was working from home the money was good, and the position was kushy, but I would work in the AM and then again at night, and drink as a reward when I was done. It was kind of the beginning of the problem whine I started working from home. I need a career with social interaction or I am bored

Stop binging. Space out your drinks and eat real food/do exercise to burn the alcohol calories.

Take a break every few months and go sober for a month so you don't build up a tolerance and over-drink.

Don't drink to get drunk, drink because you enjoy it.

I do this too, but with water bottles. If I drink straight from the handle I can't control myself and usually end up downing half of it in a night.

I'll only fill it half way at the beginning of the night too and fill it again whenever that runs out, helps a lot with pacing and helps me keep track of how much I drank since one water bottle is around half a liter
