good for you man, Hope you kick this habit.

My brother OD'd a month ago with Herion, he was pretty much written off for Dead they called us to come say good bye, etc. but he came out of it. Hes still really fucked up, but were hopeful.

I hate to see anyone suffer from the disease of addiction. Good luck man.

Thanks a lot man. I am trying. My last drink was last Saturday. I am feeling pretty good. Its a little frustrating at times but it gets easier day by day. As I suspected it would. Heroin is a whole other ballpark.

Edman, I am pulling for you. I grew up with a couple of raging alcoholics, so I am pretty much always in favor of sobriety.

Now, as for this rock bottom.... we all want to know.

Who were the alcoholics you grew up with?

[edman5555]

Ill tell you about rock bottom for your perverted pleasures. I was getting out of work and drinking a minimum of 5 drinks a day, a minimum of five days a week. I blew my acl out about 1.5 years ago because my mom went crazy and locked all the doors in the house because she thought people were breaking in(crazy). I had to walk in through the backdoor and the terrain was uneven. I slipped on a slope and fell down the hill. I kept drinking after that, even after my surgery.

I crashed my Honda civic after that and bought a new kia. I still kept going out drinking after that. I spent an insane amount of money and pretty much lost my whole bankroll gambling because I wasn't coherent enough to handicap a fight.

Finally last Saturday I got out of work and after telling myself I wasn't going to drink I went out anyways. I was still sick to my stomach from drinking from the past week and I sat at a bar choking down organic red wine trying to convince myself that I was happy. The next day I was sick of myself and I said fuck it. I'm going to go two days without drinking. I hadn't don't that in months. So I did just that. I hit the gym the next day and Ive been doing it since. I feel much better mentally and physically. I'm starting to look better as well. I swear I aged like 5 years in two years of drinking. That's going by how my face looked. I was starting to get more wrinkles and shit. Dry nasty looking skin. My last drink was this past Saturday. I'm getting actual sleep now and feeling much better.

I still want to drink sometimes but I am resisting the urge. I just don't want to go back to that shit. Luckily its nice out and its usually just a matter of finding something to do.

^^^^^^you need to message SPX because he's exactly what you just described. Not saying it to be funny or cruel, being serious. He drinks 7 days a week--probably a 6 pack(at least) a night

Glad things are turning around.

Who were the alcoholics you grew up with?

My dad and my brother are both alcoholics and drug addicts. you might recall that my brother is currently incarcerated.

I'm not going to lie, that was a disappointing rock bottom story. I was hoping for something involving an asian lady-boy and an 8-ball.

Seriously though, I think you have made a good decision and give you big props on recognizing an issue and attempting to better yourself. Catching it now before any real damage is done is a good call IMO. Good luck man.

I remember you saying that. Funny how the internet works. This is shit we probably wouldnt tell most people yet we are comfortable posting it on the net for all to see.

I didnt quite get to asian lady boy and eight ball and i now feel inadequate. I appreciate the compliment about catching it now. I am glad i did too and i am trying to stay sober and just say fuck alcohol altogether. I dont really need it and i was drinking so much it wasnt even enjoyable. It just became my normal. In am feeling good without it and i am pretty confident i can go a while without it. Mostly because i am just so happy to not be in the middle of a series of hangovers. It really can get miserable. I was never a big drinker before and i actually started out of boredom so hopefully i should be able to return to previous form. Well see.
