I think it's how you handle it. I usually have 3 or 4 bourbon after work and a couple glasses of wine with dinner. I like to feel good after a hard work day. My health is good and family life is fine
Excellent, I just sent this to a friend in need. Clear and concise information. Right now my friend has relapsed after a year and is depressed. I believe this podcast can remind him, that he is not alone and he can do this. Thank you so much. Love and light to all those who are, have been, and are on their journey, God bless you, you can do it. Much love.
My husband rip was a alcoholic he gave me a very hard life. I didn't everything to save him from himself in the end he left me for a women who also had a drink problem so she inabled him. He was a very sad man in the end he died from cancer.
There is absolutely nothing a person can do to help or convince an addict to quit. We beg, we pray, we offer tough love, advise, and anything at our disposal. But the true addict or alcoholic must drink to live at a certain stage. Horrible. Divine intervention is probably the only way of help
@@stickofbutter9733 I’m going through the same issue with my sister. 3 dui’s , leaves family goes to hotel for 5 days and drinks non stop etc. It is a hideous disease - I’ve struggled with it myself. God is needed!
@@stellanchemagbeck3473 I've never witnessed such a selfish disease. Makes me wish Prohibition was back. I hope your sister see's the light before it's too late. She obviously hasn't scared herself enough yet which shows how bad this addiction is.
this is hard for me , im 22 yeras old , and never realsied i have a problem , this helped me alot , i have drank my half bottle of rum and would normally go get more , but i FINALLY STOPPED MYSELF and i have never been so proud in myself
I used to drink a fair bit but I consider it a lesser method of intoxication. It makes you feel heavy and tired and then shaken up when you wake up. Yuk, I’m happy with a pint of cider every few days, if I want to have a good time I use stimulants. I am not saying I won’t destroy myself with the odd line or two, but I am sure I’ll never go to oblivion with booze because real life is preferable to excessively drinking. Stimulants are no fun in excess either but I don’t think people are aware enough of the negative effects of withdrawal and tend to medicate that with more of the same. One has to mix the pleasures up a bit so you don’t get too clobbered by any particular one. Moderation in all things.....
I'm taking care of a dying ex who has stage 4, it's a freaken nightmare!! I call him Mayhem because that what he is. I wish this on no one, there should be a place drunks can go drink & pass on together. This is too much, Lord have Mercy 🙏
Truth Seeker Your comment was 7 months back, but I thought you might do well to know about this...Alanon is a support group for those who have a relationship with an alcoholic. It's a way to sort the crazy making behavior and heal. Take good care...
It doesn’t matter if people “only” drink beer. Alcohol is alcohol. Alcoholics makes so many excuses for themselves, the denial state. I’m glad to see so many alcoholics here, means they know they have a serious problem. Also glad to see so many wanting to quit. I hope you all reach out for it, quitting needs a special support system. I wish the person, I’m strongly considering to leave, will reach out and get help. I know I can’t help him when he doesn’t want help. He lost his job, now me and only drinking friends that he rarely sees, and a very enabling mother who just makes it all worse. If he keeps drinking then I’m not sure if it’s him or his mother going to die first, and that is a tragic thought to have even to begin with. The person I’m talking about drinks 6-8 (most likely more) every day, smoke weed and is now also on prescription pills as beta blockers and anxiety pills, heavy cocktail. It’s slowly suicide.
