Discussion Drinking Alcohol Just to Feel Normal and Happy

[Akeolodo]

I'm soon to CTB on 24th as I posted in my previous post. Today I decided to drink 500ml of Vodka after feeling extremely depressed and hopeless and it just feels like I have some hope, energy, and motivation even though this will wear off in an hour or two. I don't really know why I'm posting this but I just feel like a normal person for once in my life.

All The Best, Peace

If booze works for you then go for it I say. Getting hammerd real quicjkwill give you a gret buzz (I find) so yeah why not.

I tried earlier in the summer tio CTB by drinkig a 70cl vodak. Don't remmber amnything but I woke up to sick around me a huge hangover. I do remember feeling very euprhoic to begin with.

Fun times

If drinking helps to take the stress away then I raise a toast you all.

enjoy

that's how i became an alcoholic some time ago, it gave me everything that i needed and finally felt something other than pain and depression. naturally i started abusing it since i had and still have nothing else that gives me those feelings. then i switched to benzos because they don't have a physically painful hangover and alcohol was ruining my health even further.

if only the feeling lasted forever, i could live this life if that was the case.

I wish I could drink my fears away. Unfortunately I can't stomach it I am too ill. Good luck on the 24th.

My date is close to yours, I haven't drank anything in 3 years, and alcohol & cigarettes are on my plan before ctb :) Worried a bit it may wake up some anxieties or too much happiness. But I'm sure it'll be fine. I have some great memories of drinking when I was younger. Fun. (Never really had a hangover). Hope you are having fun :)

I've gotten myself drunk once, just out of curiosity for what it would be like. Since I didn't like the taste of alcohol at all, I really had to force myself to get it down my throat. I remember stumbling all over the place while feeling overconfident, the complete opposite of how I normally feel. Threw up in the sink aswell. When I woke up the next day, the first thing I did was go outside for a walk, despite feeling ill (guess it was a hangover).

After feeling sick for the majority of the day, I decided to never drink again. To me, it's just not worth it.

Totally understand. I medicated myself with alcohol at the heighth of my depression. It also helped me a lot with my social anxiety when I had to go out. I was pretty much drunk all the time for around 4-5 years. So, textbook alcoholic really, but never addicted. It was quite fun to be honest, because I could actually feel something else than sorrow. It would help me pass long boring night shifts and at home I could indulge into all kinds of moods with DVDs or music. Most of the time it was sentimental, but sometimes it was partytime, well, at least until it was time for bed and everything started spinning. The bucket was never far. It's fine really, as long as one is a happy drunk and remains in control.

Really hit home with me, I have been self medicating with alcohol for years now. I have anxiety and panic attacks and drinking seems to be the only thing that helps now that doctors are getting tight with the Xanax. But I can stop any time I want, I recently went 2 months without drinking due to living arrangements. I am a movie lover and like to drink while I watch a good flick. The only way I can get on an airplane is to be bombed!

I could'nt agree more, and beer, at least for me, is a real palliative and helps you vacation from your issues, at least for a little while. Smoking weedis a passion of mine as well; anything to de-stress if that is possible

i'm starting to become an alcoholic. runs on both sides of my family. college has made alcohol extremely accessible, and my parents buy me booze whenever i ask for it anyway. i've already got a lot of vices, so this is just another one i'll eventually add to my list. i don't care, though. alcohol makes me feel better. it makes me happy.

I am all for it, personally; if it helps with the pain I say go for it

 

[AintNoWayOut]

probably should drink more in my final days... i've only really been buzzed but it was a nice feeling, yet also depressing at the same time. overall made me feel better so it could be a nice cope. main problem is living with a strict dad along with four others might make it difficult to drink in my own space but fukkit if im gonna go soon i'll take some risks, smuggle some drinks into my room and get blackout drunk. lmao my life has become a mess.

Alcohol is the only thing that makes me feel normal right now..

 

[mathieu]

I wish I could get drunk. My tolerance is too high :(

Pro choice

Alcohol and cigarettes are an awesome mix.

But I gave up smoking about 14 years ago.

But I am contemplating picking up the habit again….

I wish I could be drinking and smoking 24/7. It would make it a little easier for me to cope in this rotten world.

I understand where you're coming from, love. When I'm at my lowest, I self destruct. I drink and it helps to numb the pain for a little while. It helps me not care, but when I slowly start sobering up the emotions just hit so much harder than what they originally were. Then I just curl up into a ball in bed and cry... I had to lay off the vodka as I found myself one night drinking the whole bottle. Took 2 days for me to fully recover from it. But even then, I still wanted to drink. It's all so fleeting and the crashes are hell, but anything to just not feel for 2-3 hours... That's why I kept drinking vodka throughout the whole night so I could remain consistently drunk. I'm sorry you're going through something similar, love. You're not alone in this.

May you have a safe and peaceful journey when your time comes.

I just love the feeling when your drunk, the fuzziness in the head. You stop carrying about your negative thoughts and start dancing around. I wish I could be drunk all the time.

I like drinking even though I am muslim.
