I woke up. The world was spinning. Even lying down without moving sucks ass. I'm even cussing, so out of character. Is this hangover feels like? But I'm not even drunk. Oh, right I was sick.... dun mind me.... But it got me curious, how does being alcoholic feels? Are you always dead drunk? Is there a morning when the world isn't spinning? Can you drink liquor like it is water? Is your body so used to alcohol that you barely get drunk? Do you drink until your drunk? Why would someone want to be alcoholic? Also, good morning. Stormy out
Morning! ^^)/ I've never gotten drunk, so I dunno how it feels, so I'm afraid I can't contribute to this thread... >.>
Dunno. I’ve had maybe around a handful of drinks total in my lifetime. I’ve never gone past tipsy. I’ll be interested I guess to know what other people say…
I misread that dǝǝlS as deals at first XD I don't drink alcohols so I don't know, also, did you see a doctor? if you didn't go see one and don't wonder about how being alcoholic feels, your priorities seem wrong
I only drink non-alcoholic beverages, so uh... the only thing I can say is beer tastes horrible after the first few sips!! Definitely not worth any potential headaches you might get. I'd prefer my grape juice over beer, any day!!
I don't have to be intoxicated to make bad choices --- Spoiler Jokes aside, don't drink underage. There are different age limits over the world, but I will always believe 21 is the best age (if you ever do try alcohol). I'm underage. I'm not going to get too into it; I'd like to share what has happened and our story to raise awareness about many different things, I just ain't quite ready to share but this will do for today. It's been about a year now wow, last October was a living hell. The worst month of my life. And the specific week I'm talking about is probably the most horrible and disgusting I've lived yet, so far Very cut short, skipping over context, and summarized. I got drunk with my sister because we were upset over something (for light context, our father). Fast forward, she's out of the house and I'm alone. Fast forward, I'm throwing my guts up, everything was hurting (physically & emotionally), I wanted to smash my head against a wall. I couldn't think. Trying to simply go down the stairs was like a death sentence. Didn't make it very far, tumbled down. I crawl on the couch. If the death case of stairs wasn't enough, I almost died again. I was lying on my back and threw up again. I almost suffocated and choked on my own vomit, but I turned over and just retched it all up again. Whenever you or someone you're with is drunk, always lay on your side in case you need to throw up, because you could choke. Cut short, the end. AA meetings feel like a bucket of cold water and shame have been dumped on you.
Personally, I don't mind underage drinking as long you are with trustworthy people who knows what they are doing. In most cases that's family. There are many instances where a parent lets a kid take a sip or two or more. And yah, be careful when lying down.
It def is better to drink with a parent/trusted adult. A lot of kids wake up on their birthday and turn 21, go out to drink, and then are laid back down in a coffin.
I’m personally against underage drinking because I believe that the age limit is there because alcohol f—s with your developing organs more than it does once your organs are fully formed. Maybe the science has changed since I learned that, I don’t know. I, uh, may have gone out to a Japanese restaurant with Hamster Mama on my 21st birthday and had a glass of very strong plum wine and flirted with Hamster Mama while tipsy. >_>;;; (At least, she claimed I was flirting with her. It really didn’t seem like it from my end.) Hamster Mama may have also kept trying to insist that I go to bed and sleep and I kept refusing, saying I wasn’t tired. (I wasn’t. I got up after she left and stayed up for hours.) That’s my funny, first drink story…
While I said I don't mind, I didn't mean consume enough to destroy your body. Just a taste so that they aren't ignorant of the ways of the world haha.
how many wild ones do we have on nuf? Aside from a few who might be, I feel like most of us fall under the "play it safe" category of bookworm. Also, seems like a pattern here : I also drink sometimes but never got drunk and never felt the need to drink. Most I ever got was tipsy. I did giggle a lot and was with friends. Good times. Also stormy, unless they're joking, no one really wants to be alcoholic. Alcoholism is more of a dependency that seeps into your biological responses, not just a mental "I want to drink"
