Alcohol used to pay a big part in my life. I drank everyday it basically took over my life. Then I decided one day that enough was enough. I was tired of it controlling me. I put it down and haven't drank in 18 years.

Congrats
Successfully quitting without 12 step programs is much more common than AA will ever tell you.

Most people just don't have the self-will or determination to quit and think they need help from others or AA or god etc, but they don't. It really is as simple as just stopping. Obviously it's not as easy as that for people who are alcoholics, but if you have the determination then it's all you need.

well no shit, but they just aren't able to stop. their mind makes them think that they absolutely need it. nothing wrong with needing help. i'm not sure if a support group would help me though.

Strong will is one good ace in the sleeve to have. But from what I have seen people need strong kick or motivation triggered by some sort of event in their lives. I know case when man was walking down the street and flower pot crashed right before him. It would be his death if it was half second faster. Later after that event he did not drink any alcohol for the rest of his life.

I actually don't drink that much, it just doesn't make me feel good. I feel like i'm vulnerable. Normally, I only drink at parties and even then i don't drink that much Wink. It just seems kinda stupid that people drink until they are vomiting on a corner

How much of a role does alcohol play in my life? It depends on how much I drank Wink
But jokes aside, I never had a problem with alcohol and hope to never have one. The best way to keep it that way is to drink as far as You feel in control of Yourself. Also keep in mind that celebrating with alcohol is a bad idea.

I hate scum who get drunk and pass out. I was at a house party and this hippie surfer dude type thinks he's cool gets drunk and acts like a dumb fuck and passes out. I kicked the shit out of him his nose started to bleed. I laughed and left that scum on the floor bleeding his own.

I also once smashed a drunk bitch's face on a metal rod while partying in a yatch, one of her tooth fell off, her gums started to bleed all over the floor as she moaned in drunked pain, we all laughed at her, took her clothes off and one of my friends peed on her.

I have a high tolerance to alcohol I don't get drunk easy. I think people who get drunk are scum and should be treated as such.


you sound like a sociopath.

He's just a troll, but he could be a sociopath too lol.
That sounds sick. You should never to that to drunk people. If they are one of my closer friends, I take care of them even if I'm heavily under alcohol already.

Alcohol plays a 0 role in my life since I don't really drink.   I used to party way too much in college and as a DJ, but have since cut drinking completely out.  I am in much better shape now Smiley
You're in luck. I'm still in those days. I actually feel sick from drinking and thinking about drinking alcohol again, but I still do it.

It's sad but interesting that alcohol seems to run in families. I know several people who have followed in their fathers footsteps of drinking.

Hmm... in 99% of the times, if one of the parents are alcoholic, then the children also gets addicted to liquor. However, the reverse is not always true. I have seen children raised in religious families who never touch a drop of alcohol, becoming total drunkards later in life.  Sad

Circumstances do play role in addiction and peoples's weakness to deal with situations often leads them to drinking.

Of course there are certain circumstances that can push people into alcoholism but those with parents seem to have a predisposition for it, but anyone can ultimately turn to drugs.

My Unlce died from drinking to much alcohol so thats another way alcohol affected me, Im sure someone here lost someone they love due alcohol

I have two of my relatives who died due to alcohol. The first was my uncle... who committed suicide under the influence of alcohol some 17-18 years ago. Then one of his sons died 10 years ago, after crashing his vehicle under the influence of alcohol. He was just 18 years old.. and had a bright future... but fate had something else in store.  Sad

Its sad indeed to see so many young people who spoil their life under the influence of alcohol and still it keeps on increasing .
