There's a cure. It's called having some fucking restraint.

That is what I dislike about rehabs and shit. They want you to submit to the drug and think you are powerless over it.

I'm still in the stage of my alcoholism.
Heres to hoping it doesn't develop any further .
I have to think its because I'm only 19. Its still *kinda* a pain in the ass (going through another person)...so when I do, I drink and drink until its gone. I think if I could just go and get it whenever, it wouldn't be as big of a deal for me. Or, it would just allow me to be constantly drinking like I'd like to be.
We'll see next year.

I can only have one chemical dependency at a time. THC is my end game thank god. I used to be a big time alcoholic before I was 21. A few too many black outs convinced me to quit.

Thanks for all of the great new information and epiphanies that I haven't heard before.
I know I'm weak. It's just one of those fixing a problem with another problem things.

I got great genetics for alcohol. A lot of my family will drink a beer or so a day and many more 2 times usually the weekends.
Irish/German bloodline FTW

Some of my family used to do that x2. They are dead now though
Great genetics, or timebomb genetics?

Hearing Americans talk about their Irish or German ethnicity in conjunction with their alcohol/potato intake really makes me laugh. It's mainly just the whole "I'm Irish" thing that gets me when the majority of people are like 6 generations away from it. I grew up in England and my father's father was Irish but I don't ever claim it as an excuse or prowess. Maybe I should?

I used to just be a pothead. Then my ex GF said, "It's me or the weed!"
So naturally, enjoying regular pussy as I do, I quit smoking, and started drinking. Heavily.
So naturally, she left, and I drank more.
Now I've given up booze for my first (and much healthier) love, Marijuana. I'm so sorry I ever left you baby. And for a stupid weed hatin' bitch.
So smoke your weed, and drink when you want to.
The moral of the story is, if a girl says "Me or weed!"....... CHOOSE WEED! And find a down ass bitch that loves you for you, and maybe puffs a little and lets you crush her at madden 2010. Much nicer.

seems like all know more than doctors and psychiatrists. alcoholism is real just because you can drink like a fish and quit does not mean it does not exist for others. alcohol is a shitty drug imo i drank rarely.
and remember your smoking marijuana... which itself is a drug

Addiction is real.
Marijuana is a better alternative.

Marijuana is safe and not addictive.
If you say marijuana is addictive then the word has no real meaning. TV is addictive, sugar is addictive-- whatever.
People do get addicted to alcohol and have physical symptoms which include hallucinations, tremors, and actual physical pain upon withdrawal. That said, the cure is still simple: fucking stop. Stop being a fucking glutton if for some reason that's too much for you then just stop cold turkey. The same goes for 300 lb lard asses who keep stuffing their fat fucking faces.

i watch my roommates girlfriend wake up at 3 every day, crack a beer within 5 minutes of being awake and not stop until she passes out until 8am.
its cool and funny to talk about alcoholism, until you continuously watch people die around you and kill their selves from it. not too cool then.

See, that term pedo gets thrown around a lot.
Is a 16 year old guy having sex w/a 16 year old girl a pedophile?
If not, then how is a 30 year old considered a pedophile for doing the same thing?
I think y'all need to look up the definition for pedophile.

Believe me, I've dealt with addiction up close and personal. That's why I hold it against people who refuse to do what it takes to handle their drugs.

I know people like that too. It really becomes more than just drinking after a certain point. Shit's fuckin crazy to see happening right in front of you.

Yes it does. When I was doing a shit ton of coke a few years ago, I was drinking just as much. Neither one seems to go as well without the other. You get the weirdest looks from people at the gas station when you're buying beer at 6:01am

Yeah coke definitely can facilitate some heavy drinking. Alcohol takes the edge off the coke, and the coke takes the edge off the alcohol.
Vicious cycle.

Yes it is indeed. And it lets you drink all fuckin night and into the next day. You'll be fuckin hammered talkin about, "Nah dude, I'm not drunk, I'm good." I don't really even like coke nowadays. Haven't done it in a couple years.

Everyone has weaknesses. Not being able to give up alcohol is like not being able to start a proper excercise routine, or not being able to improve your skill at something like say maths. It's a lack of will power, part of you is in a comfort zone and doesn't want to change. I've found thinking of my body not being 'me' but mearly as a machine that is weak and needs to be battled into submission by my conscious self which resides inside and is the real me, allows me to overcome a lot of willpower issues. In essensence I pit what I know I need against what I think I want.

I heard something one time that cocaine affects the same part of a woman's brain that has to do with orgasms. That could explain cokewhores .
