I am Drunk?

[TheSnail]

I noticed after I read all these "drunk" threads that I dont get drunk. I drank for a while, but for the last several years I have drank every night. 90% of the time I drink a 12pk which regrettably is a $300per month habit. Something hurts on my left side so I have been sleeping on my left side to applie pressure on it so what ever it is does not hurt as much. What I'm saying is that I noticed I dont get drunk, my face feels numb but I act and carrie my self as if I was sobber. :confused:

You know you're a drunk when you no longer act the part under 12 servings of influence. Congratulations.

I honestly, seriously honestly DONT WANT TO DRINK ANYMORE! But it's delicious. Its like coffee in the morning. But it's killing my social life and I never get anything done. When I wake up and befor 6pm I am like "why are you drinking , you dont need that shit" but then 10pm comes around and I find my self walking to the counter with a 12pk still in pitty of my self. But then I get home, crack open a beer, take a sip and its delicious again.

Find youself something else to do to distract yourself to make it easier... If you don't have time to think about it you won't so much. You can always try to set goals too... like back off to every other night, then every third night, then just weekends etc... a little at a time.

I cant control my self when drinking. One beer and I will want another more then when I had 0. But I have tried to quit several times before. Most of the time I make it about 2-3 days. It is pretty shitty though. I have to always find something to snack on to keep me occupied as if I never get full. I also get really ancy and simple things piss me off. I dont have fun and I am not relaxed. About one year ago I did quit for two weeks once I got real sick of all the shit. after about a week I felt like I alive again, wanting to leave the house just to go somewhere to see what my friends were upto. Then I had a very busy and stressful week at school so at the end of the week I told my self I need a reward, by sitting back drinking a couple of brew's and just relaxing. My old habits instantly hit me with a slap in the face. That was the closest I've came to quiting, and I need to try it again. It's shitty for the first week or so, but then you get to enjoy life and not live it like a bum. Also today was the last day of class and Im not taking summer classes so there is no stress ahead to make me grab some beer and relapse again, so this summer I should try and quit for good.

If you have a room mate, he/she could help you through it by not letting you drink at all then taking you out somewhere and have some good sober fun.

P.S. I know someone who went through the same thing as you and it worked.
