Fuck yeah it can.

You've poisoned yourself to the point where your body now has a dependence on the poison.

Nuts

Withdrawal sucks ass. I should have checked into rehab last time, but didn't. I had emergency numbers on standby and someone to check on me, but that was about it.

I was in bed for about a week, but pulled through. It took about 6 months for the cravings to slow down, and another 6 until my brain started to function properly. My weight shot up about 50 lbs, but I have finally lost all of that. Heart problems that me and my doc were trying to figure out disappeared as well.

Learning life again was weird and I am a much different person now. People have called me nice and fun to be around, which is super weird. Life does get better.

Fellas, is it gay to really really like a girl?

A girl without dick is like an angel without wings

I am legit blown away that this greentext didn't end with Open the door, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur. I was absolutely sure that would be how it ended after reading the penultimate paragraph

LOL, no.

This was me with weed until I was 30. So glad I quit sooner than later.

Should have kept drinking. Nothing to look forward to in sobriety.

That's a bullshit lie, as someone who battled alcoholism for over a dozen years and finally got my shit together.

I third this, it was where all the waste lie in my life. Quitting drinking made quitting smoking easier, which made exercising easier, all of which gave me a more positive outlook, and before I knew it, I had myself the best girl I could have ever asked for (she asked ME out), my home was clean, I had the energy to clean and cook and type out run-on sentences for days!

Quit at 36, I'm 38, best two years of my adult life. Plenty more to go. Glad to be on the same journey as you fellas

I haven't touched the stuff except from communion and taste testing. I plan to keep it that way. At least never drink enough to get significantly drunk.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I'm a fucking drunk and I agree with you. I don't suffer from alcoholism, but I really enjoy drinking when appropriate (even if it's an inappropriate amount). But there's plenty to be sober for.

Good on you, friend. I'm glad you've got your shit together.

I'm not a drunk but I do drink every night. My wife gave me shit about it awhile back and I asked her, "have you ever seen me blackout drunk, mean and yelling, doing stupid shit? No, because I don't get "wasted" I just drink enough that I feel like my life outside of my family isn't literally destroying me through stress and constant attention." (I'm a regional type manager for a company). I also pointed out that I go several nights in a row occasionally where I don't drink at all, albeit usually when I've been away from work for some time. She agreed that I have indeed never displayed any negative traits about my alcohol consumption. She worries though because my dad was/is a full blown shitty drunk. She smokes weed everyday, in fact as I'm typing this she's loading a bowl and that's her vice and I'll never judge for that. This is mine.

Long story short, it's a really bad habit that can absolutely destroy families and lives. But I can't stand being actually "drunk" so I just have a few drinks most nights because my American life is slowly breaking me down. I've been this way for many years but never crossed any line. Others might not have sight of the line so I agree that it's a thin line and not one to be fucked with.

Sorry for the rant, I've had my allotted 4 glasses of wine and I'm feeling good lol.

You're dependent. Maybe not physically but psychologically.
