One of my favorite videos thank you for sharing I was an alcoholic past 9 years ago and I cannot tell you enough the harm to you to your body to your family to your love ones to your soul to your spirit The word “Alcohol” comes from the Arabic “al-kuhl” which means “BODY EATING SPIRIT”, and gives root origins to the English term for “ghoul”. In Middle Eastern folklore, a “ghoul” is an evil demon thought to eat human bodies, either as stolen corpses or as children.
The words “alembic” and “alcohol”, both metaphors for aqua vitae or “life water” and “spirit”, often refer to a distilled liquid that came from magical explorations in Middle Eastern alchemy.🙏🙏💯💯🔱🔱🧿🧿
1. So glad you’re doing better today. 2. Thank you for providing value and educating me and everyone in the comments!
@@reallifepsych3309 My pleasure to be of service I share because I care many blessings to you and your beautiful channel and everyone who sees this love and light 💯💯🌳🌳🌞🌞🌎🌎🌌🌌☮️☮️❤️❤️🙏🙏
Thank you for your comment, and huge congratulations on your sobriety!
The combination of root words is a powerful offering, but I think the entomologies of "alcohol" and "ghoul" are not accurate. Both words have Arabic roots, but come from different words in Arabic: "al-kuhul" and "ghul." *
"Alcohol" came to be associated with the liquid in the 1540s (early 15c. as alcofol), "fine powder produced by sublimation," from Medieval Latin alcohol "powdered ore of antimony," from Arabic al-kuhul "kohl," the fine metallic powder used to darken the eyelids, from kahala "to stain, paint." The al- is the Arabic definite article, "the." Paracelsus (1493-1541) used the word to refer to a fine powder but also a volatile liquid. By 1670s it was being used in English for "any sublimated substance, the pure spirit of anything," including liquids.
"Ghoul" comes from Arabic ghul, an evil spirit that robs graves and feeds on corpses, from ghala "he seized."

Been sober for 24 years and enjoying every single day. If you are unhappy with your relationship with alcohol, quitting is possible. And will be the best thing you have ever done for yourself.
I stopped completely, feel much better now. Staying sober is way better.
I binge drink once everyweek, Lots of wine until I get wasted. I've been doing it for almost 3 years non stop. Next day is miserable, I never thought I would've acquire a problem. I'm not a social drinker, I just stay in my room listening to music, drinking and now I also smoke marijuana after I get drunk. I want to stop, I use it as a crutch for my loneliness and sadness. Boredom is my biggest trigger, but even when I'm busy I think abt my next bender it's like a reward.
@@bushcat274 What does it do to you? I want to replace booze with something, I can't stand hangovers anymore.
@@willgamer0849can you access CBD drinks in your area? I’m also a binge drinker but I’ve been sober for 8 days no problem. Just lots of boredom. Definitely a huge trigger
@@iplaywithrocksforfun I don't know what that is, I haven't spend a single week sober for more than 3 years. It's routine and part of my life.
@Brittany It has nothing to do, I can be busy. But then I will drink again when I'm free. For relaxation, stress etc. It's like a reward. I do it once a week. If I don't then I'd feel like if I were missing something. No exactly cravings or anxiety. But for fun. And you?
@@colewhitfield9313 It's all abt self control. I'm really shy too. And Booze makes me feel different. I used to smoke pot regularly when I was a teenager. Then when I grew up I switched and only smoke weed when I'm drunk. Once a week. I don't think I'm ready to quit.
If you think you might have a problem, you do! May seem extreme but its true! Take action now!!!
I like alcohol but my heart breaks for alcoholics. They're in a worse position than other drug addicts. Alcohol is so woven into our society that few people even consider it to be a drug. The fact that it's so readily available puts alcoholics in the worst position. It's so easy for them to relapse.
I'm 13 months sober. I was a yes on all 11 questions, and the idea of 5 drinks constituting a binge struck me as faintly comedic - 5 drinks was a warm-up! 400-ish aa meetings & 12 steps later, I look 15 years younger, no longer hate myself and look forward to playing my guitar 🎸, seeing my girlfriend, making myself useful, hanging with other sober members and helping still suffering alcoholics. In contrast, a year-and-a-bit ago, I was looking forward to having the unbearable hassle of being alive taken away by continuing to drink, because I could envision no other future.
So proud of you and thank you for sharing your story. Yes 5 drinks for some people is a small amount, but over a “sitting” is a lot for some. Again, really glad you shared your story. I’m considering making a video about treatment options eventually. Was there anything in your recovery you think helped the most?
@@reallifepsych3309 without AA I'd be dead. Nothing compares with talking to someone who's been there and done that. My doctor, psychologist and psychiatrist watched helplessly for years as I gradually destroyed myself. People who used to be party animals & maniacs, but now radiate peace & calm - for me, these are essential for recovery and I can always find them at a meeting.
To be honest, I kinda wish you'd said in the video, "if you answered 'yes' to more than 1/2 of these, AA can help."
@@nunyobidniz I felt that finding other alcoholics that were like me and didn’t judge me for the stupid things I did was huge.
Covid killed almost all the meetings here and shut down most of everything not sure how I made it through covid with no meetings most were bad but few were good even zoom meetings got bad gallbladder surgery and colitis got me drinking with my girlfriend I'm sure covid got alot of people
I started binging at about 24. I knew right off hand this needed to be a weekend only thing and I stuck to that. Still, drinking fairly heavy twice a week started taking it's toll and it was hard to quit. I quit for certain spans of time like when I got married but would slip back into it for a few years at a time. A few things changed; I no longer got hangovers and wouldn't ever get sick even if I drank way too much. I could drink like a fish but couldn't get that buzzed feeling anymore, instead I would pass out if I had too much. All the fun was gone. I had been praying that I could quit and God heard my prayers. He has a sense of humor you know. I crashed my mountain bike (not while drunk) impaled my leg and thought I was bleeding out. In the ER the doctors said my enzymes were high and asked if I drank. I otherwise wouldn't have known that. The good Lord got my attention about drinking and life in general ... I regret all the wasted time but glad nothing worse came from it.
Amen 🙏 God is is good his the only the can help us and healed us inside out he did it for me I know and I believe 💯 he can do it for anybody else
If you have to binge drink regularly, it is alcoholism.
My last partner swore that it was just how he had to deal, a few days a week at most. But turned into a hateful monster whenever he did. If anyone challenged it, they were cut out of his life. It isn't the amount of alcohol, it's the consequences that make you alcoholic.
When I was 8, I was caught redhanded stealing a sip of my father's ice cold can of coors light while he waa mowing the lawn. He wasn't angry, but instead found it humorous. I found the taste was so revolting, I became a complete teetotaler right then and there. When I turned 21, I asked my physician to test me for any alcohol allergy/intolerance. And much to my relief, I was!😆😆😆😆 I haven't touched any form of alcohol since I was 8. Even before being tested for alcohol intolerance, something inside me told me I wasn't missing out on much by completely staying away from alcohol. Actually, I'm very thankful that I did.
Five weeks sober, no rehab, no drs. I had an ego death on psilocybin and quit cold turkey that day. No withdrawal symptoms either. Just a happier, healthier, fuller life. I know things aren’t going to be sunshine and rainbows forever, treating myself with the respect I deserve is going to make everything a hell of a lot easier.
142 days sober! 🎉
Congratulations! 208 days sober! 🎉
Such an awful binge drinking and drug culture in the UK..Im 50...2 weeks sober from 30 plus years of weekend binges and drinking on holiday etc...Its the norm over here...:-/
I'm 27 and agree, uk culture is notorious for binge drinking behaviours. As a teen / uni student, that was the only way people knew how to socialise.
We've been drinking for centuries and moderation is the key for a healthy life. I only go wasted once a month (or every two months) and barely drink the rest of it. For me is like a fun activity that I will only do a few times a year. But, if I drink more than once during the month, it would be only 1 or 2 beers because there's no need to go extreme.
@@ClaimedEagle some of us can't do moderation. There's a line that gets crossed. 😣
@@ClaimedEagleJust because weve been drinking for centuries doesnt mean its a good thing..Drink is a legal poison..Theres not many people that can 'moderate' what ever that means. Ive been binging for 35 years..Now im in in my 50s the hangovers and depression are way worse as your body cant recover the same way...Its hard to give up because of the social norm but i honestly get more of a buzz working out, going out for nice meals etc.. Every day i stay sober i feel better and better...Used to be fun drinking in my 20s and early 30s but usng much fun now...Science proves thst alchahol will cause stress and deoression days after drinking so the very thing you drank for then comes back and makes you miserable later..Alcachol is acually a registered poison..
Yeah, I would definitely struggle big-time with that in college. I'm getting better controlling myself, but now I just typically not drink at all.. the next day is just not fun at all.
The best part is, you recognize the effects and you’ve adapted. Yea, I agree, the older we get, the harder to recover.
@@reallifepsych3309 I also don't think people caught The Office reference at the beginning 😂
Wow the video I didn't know I needed!
I know right? Hope I didn’t scare you :)
My sister drinks between 1 to 4 packs of tall can cheladas and there are 3 tall cans in each pack. So she is drinking almost an 18 pack every week but on days she works she only drinks a pack of 3 tall cans, so a 6 pack a day. She spends about 100 bucks a day. I'm trying to encourage her to either quit or drink less. I can tell it's changing her way of remembering and also preventing her from leaving her home to visit family.
Sounds like my brother .. but hard thing is as a Sister you can see them going down the unhealthy way... makes me sad sometimes
I’m scared to admit that I have a binge drinking problem. But my binge drinking has caused me to have seizures when I’m hungover. It’s crazy scary. I had my last seizure on Sunday and I’m still recovering. I don’t want to binge drink anymore.
I know someone similar, You just have to hang tough and ease off the juice. And take it week by week. Try and stay hydrated frequently. I highly recommend going to see a Neurologist (if you can) to figure out what’s going on regardless.. You shouldn’t be having episodes without a diagnosis. God speed 🙏🏻✨
Detox and take gabapentin or benzos for seizures the doctor should give you them temporarily if you need to quit
My binge was 14 to 15 drinks in a six hour period. And trying to taper off the following day by drinking another 4 drinks on a 5 hour period. The hangovers are horrible.
Good input. Crazy I never drank every day but i would binge drink on the weekends for about 3 years. just got diagnosed with liver cirrhosis and I just turned 27. Cant ever drink again and Id be lying if I said I dont miss it but its not worth my life.
I get plastered and blackout about once every 8 months. This behavior damn near causes a divorce every time. It only happens when I drink beer and tequila. What the heck is wrong with me? Why does this happen to only me and not my friends? I am fearful that if it happens again, I will lose everything.
Your an alcoholic, totality quit drinking !
There isn't anything wrong with you. I can give you a laundry list of the stupid shit I've done while completely sloshed; but its best to find someone to talk to. Or atleast mention to your spouse that you have a sincere issue with it. And maybe they'll help pull you out of your hole. Support comes with you, and just asking for it. Its an extremely difficult process; you're not the only one.
Stay stellar; be well mon frere.
Get help. Before it gets worse.
I’ve binged so much I should be dead. Once I stopped myself from having a heart attack by crunching on 2 Beyers. I HATE THIS!!! I am bipolar 2. The depression is soooo bad. I used to cut myself and that felt AMAZING!!! My right arm is slashed up!!!!!! But I have a channel on YT and it’s so hard to upload. Why am I not dead? I should be. I feel like I’m here to spread awareness. I hope. 🙏🏽 I binge twice a month on a bad month. Mostly it’s once a month for 3-4 days.
Hi there :) thanks for sharing, it helps me feel not so alone and outcast. I also find myself in awe at how I have not died, having experienced many close calls and overdoses. I'm not a regular drinker but I will binge drink 1-2x a month, and take it to a scary point. My left arm is destroyed from self harm too but now I'm trying to rid myself of all the bad coping methods and adopt new ones that build my life up, not tear it down!
Hi friends. I binge 4 or 5 days a week. That's the only time I smoke cigarettes as well. And I'm puffing away, back to back. I used to be way worse. Days would go by. Our bodies are pretty amazing to keep up with us. Sending you both love and healing vibes. Hopefully we can shake this demon one day.💚
Thanks for sharing. Please seek help for your self mutilation and for the alcohol use.
I burned the hell outta my arms with a lighter like a month ago while I was drunk, I didn't feel it bc of it and next day I had blisters. It felt good. I just like suffering sometimes.
I'm sober but I still like talking boutique why it's good to remain sober
Binge drinking regularly at best puts your life on hold maybe for years while your underlying issues remain unaddressed
I stoped drinking everyday
Now I drink about 4-5 times a year special occasions and I love it
Such an important topic! Great job empowering us by teaching us how to identify the signs! 💪💖 Another awesome video! Thank you! 🤩❤
Awesome how certain 'older' videos can be such a vital source of information and support! Hi, I'm Timber, and I'm an alcoholic with 20 months into recovery. I am a 52 year old woman. I was a hardcore binge-drinker for many years: 1-2 pints of vodka every other day. I was drinking alone, at home. Drinking seemed to take away all my cares for hours at a time. Then came the next day, and that never failed to be just bad in every possible way. On July 7, 2020, I wound up in the hospital with alcohol poisoning. I almost died. A nurse came in the next day to ask me if I was ready for free help to recover. "YES." My mom broke down crying and said "Thank God!" She had been asking me to do this for a very long time. I spent 3 weeks in McCambridge Rehab for Women in Columbia, Missouri. I was determined to make this work for myself (that is important), and did everything they wanted me to do: up at 5:00am for a shower, a smoke, breakfast, then 10 classes a day (I tried really hard not to sleep in class, but I did doze off 2-3 times :/ ). I was put in charge of the kitchen, so I had to keep it clean, dishes done, no old food in the fridge, trash out, floors clean. By bed time around 11pm, I was exhausted and fell into bed. Every minute of being there was WORK, mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. But I DID it. I got that bead ceremony at my 'graduation'. I walked out of there with every tool ready-to-use. In the past 20 months, I have used them all at one time or another. I now live sober, with full knowledge that I am able to live life sober. I am a different person, a better person, and I'm eternally grateful and humble. Thank you for reading this. Maybe my words will touch someone out there who really needs them.
I love this! Thank you!
@@erikap311 You are very welcome! :)
@@timberwolf5631 congratulations on your sobriety, every day is a major accomplishment! I felt the exact same way you did. Incomprehensible demoralization every single day. I’m 49 from Northeast Missouri. I got sober this May after I ran out of choices. Three trips to the ER, that last in an ambulance. One for alcohol poisoning and two for falls. One day I was just a regular social/professional drinker with it all under control the next im laying on the floor bleeding out. My liver enzymes were at very dangerous levels. I had turned into another person. One that no one understood but me. I got sober not in rehab but in those recovery rooms where they pass the basket. Either way I did it. Most all of my friends that still drink have stood by me maybe not fully understanding but I don’t waste their time and my time trying to describe it to them unless they ask. I drank over a pint a day during the week, all day long fifth or more on the weekends. At the end I was drinking in the middle of the night and even before work. 208 days sober today, no looking back. The only thing that can get in the way is me.
@@Jerid58 EXCELLENT!!! I'm four hours southwest of you, at the Lake. Missouri is a great place to be sober with all of its natural beauty and fresh air. It takes an extraordinary amount of inner willpower to get sober and stay that way, no matter what. I am happy that both of us will be spending our holidays outside of a coffin.
@@timberwolf5631 About three hours from the lake. We have a vacation home there on the west side. I go to meetings there in the summer, there is a really awesome group there. I’ve even went two times in one weekend if I’m around enough drunk people. I go there knowing it’s all around but still it can get on your nerves. Giving up the alcohol gave me back so many things I had been missing I can’t even count them all.
Pretty simple, if you drink even a glass of wine everyday or need a drink to celebrate or mourn; you are controlled by alcohol, not the other way around. I am 7 years sober and for Christmas 🎄; I will gladly choose pumpkin-spiced coffee over my old friend Jack Daniel.
Is there a continuation of this? I found this very helpful
Great video I drink heavy on any given Friday or a Saturday to blackout mode wondering what I said to other people actually all the time I don’t remember what I said this is the issue I have. I am a weekend kind of guy never been a daily drinker, and I’m sick of beating myself up every time I do something that normally isn’t me or even my personality
If you only need two of those eleven yes’s for that list of questions then I think that classifies an absurdly high number of young adults as having AUD. I’m an alcoholic who goes to AA and it has changed my life but a lot of my friends, especially from college, would’ve answered yes to multiple of those and I don’t think are alcoholics.
Watching this after drinking 750ml of whiskey in a night alone and woke up in my vomit what a cleanup glad i didnt choke in my sleep fuck alcohol
Certainly, drinking is a superb manner to relax and not something which everyone will need to cut completely from their lives. For example, in Steffon Barkload's homepagw you can find a one hour method that virtually forces your head to repulse alcohol by simply thinking about it.
I couldn't find this on his page. Do you have link you can share.
Marc Taloni...Alcohol use is not a "Superb" manner to relax. To me it is a crutch to deal with severe depression. It has made it much much worse.
Good Video 👍
well, I'm definitely a binge drinker, Have no idea what "seek help" means so I'll wing it and assume since I didn't really fit in at AA (although it really helped with not drinking) and my primary care doctor who seemed concerned when I answered honestly but didn't really say or do anything ,,, that it must mean it's time for therapy and I believe I'm dealing with some PTSD issues.. maybe childhood issues as well
I know binging is bad for me, but it’s my favourite type of drinking. 6 beers or scotches in a sitting is an awesome Friday night.
But it know there is no net benefit and it always interferes with my goals.
I drink because I'm bored.. Mostly. I just really enjoy having some pints. So much that I enjoy it tonight. And probably tomorrow. And why not day after that when it's friday? And saturday, that's a no brainer.. Etc. Etc. - If God cared about us, he'd make alcohol healthy.
In the UK its really the norm to binge drink especially in your younger days..
I went to Durham and the drinking culture there is genuinely disgusting. I had my first drink in college at 20 and developed a horrid alcohol use disorder that i thought was normal
If you ever need to ask yourself if your drinking is a problem you already have your answer.
The last time I drank, I was in Vietnam for new years and I took down 26 cans of beer and drove home and did some CZcams watching while drinking 1 more bottle of Saigon Green (3 cans of beer is it's equal)
My tolerance is insanely high that it was scary
Image drinking 30 cans of beer and still thinking what store is open right now....
Had a binge 3 weeks ago after months without a drop. Didn't enjoy it during the consumption which was the finally nail in the coffin. Felt rough for 4 days after and I'm done with it. 30 years on and off partying my arse off and my body is starting to fail. /End
Wants the demon water (alcohol) gets hold of you it’s hard to put it down it led me to start taking lots of opiates,, it took me five months in rehab to get sorted out that was fourteen years ago,,,,,,
And I’m proud of you! I’ve worked with many clients on this, and what you’ve accomplished is tremendous.
Thank you for the kind words,, iam in the uk ,,the country is in full lockdown I feel sorry for people who need NA or AA meetings I think there will be a lot of drug and alcohol problems when we come out of lockdown,,,
Binge drinking is more common in Young adults because they go out and party more and they don't have as many health issues. Older people don't do it as much because of age and health problems.
In the United States, insurance companies associated with businesses can punish you if you are an alcoholic by raising your rates, declining payouts, or dropping you completely.
This causes a disruption to people coming forward to their healthcare providers, as insurance companies can have you release your medical records when you sign up.
If this wasn't allowed by insurance companies, more people would seek out help.
that is BS
Many parents don't seek therapy and keep their drinking a secret because seeking help often puts them at risk of losing their kids. 😒
How would u compare out about social drinking to alone at home regular drinking? Vs wknd binge ?
I think i already have the answer since i got into rehab 2 times LMAO
I can go a few days without drinking but then once I have a pint I’ll go on it for 3/4 days , maybe more. I’ll stay up til early hours and then wake up still drunk and have a few curers. Had pancreatitis when I was 22 and feel it coming on again now , stomach is pretty bad, lots of blood sometimes. Have Antabuse but it doesn’t really work. Have lost jobs and relationships over alcohol but it’s my pancreas I’m really worried about at the moment. Giving it up this year for six months hopefully with the help of mushrooms and DMT
For me total abstinence is the only way . I recommend you quit completely. If you continue drinking, your health will be destroyed. Some people can drink , I’m not one of them ! 28 yrs no alcohol, I’ve saved myself so much misery!
Listen to Mike Heaton. He is giving Good Advice.
I rarely drink, but when I do it’s because I like the taste. My husband seems to drink with the goal of getting drunk although he likes the taste too. What makes the goal of drinking so different from one person to another?
4 months of no alcohol for me
Been drinking a 12 pack of seltzer and some sips of rum if not a 12 pack I’ll get 750ml of rum and chase it with some flavored sparkling water I recently stopped and made so I drink every 3 days and add a day until I can dissolve it 🤔🤔
I said yes to all 11 items. Damn.
My daughter is a binge drinker and I'm concerned. She is in denial, I don't know what to do and I'm worried. She doesn't drink everyday but looks forward to when she can and when she does, she gets drunk, it's never one drink, it's I'm getting drunk period.
Show her Andrew Huberman's video!
I'm like her I binge once a week, And I lokk forward to my next benders. I'm not in denial though, I know I have a problem. And I drink to get wasted. My parents don't care, My mom doesn't like it, but she doesn't confront me. I just can't stay sober at least a week. I want to stop, but I can't. After a few days I start to overthink and then I drink to ease it.
@@willgamer0849 same here, just turned 18 cant got out without drinking
I can Say therapy helps, get your daughter a therapist, and hopefully she Will be willing to work it out herself, and help her when she asks. I'm glad you are worried for your daughter.
I think your being a bit over the top here lol..Most youngsters go out and get drunk ffs..Thet are inly young amd want to enjoy themselves and socislise...
I don’t know it was called binge drinking I thought it was just drinking. Finish the first one and get the next one
I need help with this
Im scared its gonna kill me. I only drink a few times a month but when I do I just can't stop 🤦♂️
Has it ever caused hemroids for you I drink a lot high proof an I'm new drinking never had before till then
@@Cadillac-my3ys if you get diarreah a lot that will cause hemroids
RIP
Unfortunatly in my case 13 years, equvalent of 0,5 liter vodka every single day. Now at 47 I feel like ENOUGH. 1,5 months mostly sober. Full abstenence never worked for me (yes tryed multiple times), seems like moderation works, until now at least. Here in Finland is crazy expensive alcohol. For me minimum 20€ a day (600€ a month, 7200€ a year), not big burden, BUT waay too much anyway.
Same here in Canada. If I went off the wagon , I would be broke in no time .
Woof, I only have 2-4 drinks in a sitting... glad I don't have binge drinking disorder
They just told us 2 drinks per week in canada is max.
0:14 blame Meredith haha
What is your professional evaluation on Bert Kreischer
😂
I binge drink once or twice year 😬 I’ll go on like 3-5 day binge and then just stop and chill for 6 months to a year. Am i an alcoholic ? Idunno. Do I have a potential to be a full blown alcoholic? Probably…
I drink wiskey every week or few weeks had 30 days last month and relapsed again i know its because of depression and anxiety that keeps me awake and living alone don't know why I can't stop drinking for longer than that
Is five drinks in five hours binge drinking?
I consider a binge drinker as one who goes out once in a while and really ties one on. Maybe this happens now and then when he or she goes out with friends bar hopping and such. There are no cravings involved. To me, if you start craving alcohol every 5 days or so, and you generally give in to those cravings and get toasted, then you're an alcoholic. If you drink every day and get up in the morning after drinking and start again, then you're a RAGING alcoholic.
Drinking and cocaine use are so bad I find myself up all night drinking but having a good time to only feel like shit the next day. Socially do it twice a week before
love that mixture
Spot on..
Okay. What if I do not drink to get drunk or to get a buzz? I exercise the discipline and willpower to drink only 1 shot of single malt Scotch whiskey daily for its scientifically proven health benefits? Would you agree that this is the best "healthy moderation"?
@@johnjoe3386 there's an English lady who lived to well over 100, and she said her secret was drinking 1shot of scotch daily.
I miss your videos
I have 3 or 4 drinks on Friday night and Saturday night. On Sunday, I have another 3. I don’t drink during the week. I don’t know what this is. Any idea?
sounds like you're a normal person who can drink moderately. Just be careful not to increase amounts.
How much is too much? One Drop.
I can go a month without drinking but one beer will lead to 12-15 beers the first time and everything I drink.
Yes to all 11 questions😔
Lets be honest though, thats not mich drink is it ? Virtually everyondy i know drinks more then that down the pub or bar ?
Is it ok to binge once a week or once every 2 weeks?
Probably
Lost anything you truly didn't want to lose?
Ik she didnt say 4-5 times a month🤦🏻♂️5 drinks within 2 hours? Thats like everyday damn
5 drinks in a sittin I would be happy with lol
@2:40 5 drinks in a sitting haaa! Let's be honest, it mever is 5 drinks in a sitting
Okay, seek professional help. Right. That costs lots of money IF you can even find a professional who can take you on. There is no money for help and AA isn't much help; it even turns some off and leaves them to drink even more for the failure.
Ultra challenge yall, everyone likes you when ur drunk but u know u gotta problem. Callin it drunk savant
That’s why weed is better🥱
Can you remove the judgy part and just give us info?
4 or 5 drinks in 2 hours is a slow day. Lol.
P.S. the "CDC"? LOL, as if that outfit has any cred.
I drank an 18 pack of natural light cans 16 consecutive days per month for 3 and a half years. The other 14 days per month were my prescribed adderall days. Got away with it for 3 years and 3 months but the final 3 months i very abruptly stopped getting away with it. Turned on me big time. Im committed to never drinking again. Ever. I accept that sometimes i have failed on that but i then try harder each time. Have been doing great for 2 months
Any psyche worth listening too won't use the term "Alcoholism". Down-voting this and moving on! :)
