When you drank 2 beers and your brain says I’ll have 30 more

It took me about 20 years to figure out that I can't just have 2, so it's best to have zero and find something else to do instead of waking up not knowing what I had done, posted on social media, who is pissed at me, where my car is, etc. Next week makes 15 months sober.

Working on 6 months now. What you said was the exact reason why I quit. Was tired of hurting the ones that actually gave a shite.

I fall victim to this every now and then (assuming I don’t fall asleep after 2 drinks) because I’m old and don’t really drink a ton

For me it’s a fatal combination of being overly excited and being a relative lightweight

don't ask me how I know, but cocaine works in a very similar fashion.

I sincerely feel sorry for people like this. It's a disease and downright unfair that something so fun can be so destructive for alot of people.

frick, it isn't the two beers...it's the pint or more of whiskey I consume with it, just depends on how many hours I have to drink. If it's all day, definitely a fifth a lot of the time. Those make for some rough mornings where I tell myself to quit completely... Hope I can get it together by year 20 or sooner...guess that's probably 3-5 more years. These threads help me think there is some light and I know if others can quit, so can I.

I was in your shoes not too long ago. Was on this site and came across someone talking about some kind of cure for alcoholism. Well, almost a year later and it worked. Don't even think about the stuff anymore. Saved my life. Check it out, or don't...just maybe this will help someone else like it did me

I am a weird drunk. I get somewhat flirty and shy after a few. Luckily, it doesn't end with me making enemies.

I actually haven't been blackout drunk. I kinda put a halt to shite at tipsy and just drink water.

I like Stouts and Porters when drinking. Get a good 10%-13% alcohol content

I still drink here and there, but it's a far cry from how I used to be. Big difference for me is that now I rarely have alcohol at my house.

I used to go out and drink then get home and really drink. Now my drinking doesn't go much beyond two or three beers. And what used to be every day turned into once a week. Then when I get home I'm no longer drinking.

I'll go a month or two without drinking and not miss it one bit. But I do still enjoy a beer so I don't know that I'll ever completely quit.

So what exactly did you do? I watched the link video, but that didn't really cover any sort of solution.

Is that a joke? Why won't you or anyone else say what the little pill' is? You would think there would be links all over the place?

is it nalatraxone or whatever? The one you keep tdrinking with for a little while?

I haven't heard the best results from that stuff, but only know of what person that says he tried he. He also said a lot of other shite that wasn't true so I'm not convinced either way.
