Giving Up Alcohol

IT MIGHT SEEM OBVIOUS ,BUT ITS ONLY THE ALCOHOL TAKERS THAT GET BANNED ,IT DOESNT AFFECT THEM WHEN THEY DONT TAKE ANY

ONCE IT GETS IN SIDE YOU ,

YOU SAY TO YOURSELF FUC* EM ALL

THIS WILL RING A BELL TO THOSE WITH A DRINK PROBLEM .

FUC* EM ALL

MANY A TIME YOU WISH THEY WOULD ALL LEAVE YOU ALONE .SO YOU CAN GO AND LIVE ON A DESERT ISLAND WITH YOUR DRINK ,THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT IS YOUVEGOT TO TAKE YOUR HEAD WITH YOU ,AND THATS WHERE ALL THE TROUBLE STEMS FROM ,THERES NO ESCAPE UNLESS YOU CHOP YOUR HEAD OFF

Do wah - what age did you stop drinking and what did you do to replace the drink? I blacked out on sat nite. Its happening more and more often and it scares me. Its day 1 off the booze for me. My body aches but I am clear in my mind that I want to stop. The test for me is the weekends. Just hope I am strong enough to stay off it

How old are you kal?

28 mate

Sounds like you know what you need to do.

Definitely see your GP asap. I'm no expert on the subject but I have read that alcohol withdrawal can be extremely dangerous, even fatal (as History Maker says).

Are you able to hold down a job?

GL to you

GL Kal.

If you decide cutting down is an option instead of giving up then I'll describe my system (everybody slates it but it works very well for me).

Everybody's different though, so best of luck with whatever you decide to do. I guess it all boils down to willpower in the end and you just have to decide what kind of system your willpower can handle best. Quite possibly for you it's abstinence.

I never really had a "problem" but I was probably drinking more than was good for my health.

I realised I was getting too old for that kind of lifestyle (I was about 32) and decided I was going to give up "stupid" drinking and have just drunk in moderation ever since.

I'm not saying that this is right for you but what I did which may be relevant to you, is find myself a different cirlce of friends and develop new interests.

KAL I WAS 53 YEARS AND ONE DAY OLD WHEN I STOPPED ,I WAS PLAYING AT STOPPING FOR YEARS AFTER I GOT DONE FOR DRINK DRIVEING ,IF ANY ONE DESERVED TO DRINK IT WAS ME I WORKED HARD AND NEVER GOT NASTY IN DRINK ,IT WAS ONLY AT THE END OF MY DRINKING I GOT NASTY WHEN I ENDED UP PARANOID THINKING EVERYONE WAS TAKEING ADVANTAGE OF ME ,EVERYONE LIKED ME EXCEPT MY FAMILY AS I WAS NEVER WITH THEM I WAS ALLWAYS IN THE PUB OR BOOKIES ,I TOOK THE ON TWO HOLIDAYS ABROAD EVERY YEAR AND THREW MONEY AT THEM ,BUT THERE WAS ALLWAYS A BAR NEAR BYE AND A BOOKIES IF POSSIBLE ,I JUST WANTED TO DRINK NORMAL,I KEPT PROMISEING MY SELF IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT NEXT TIME ,BUT IT NEVER WAS ,AS SOON AS I PICKED UP THAT FIRST DRINK I WANTED MORE AND MORE .I WAS TOLD AT AN EARLY STAGE I WOULD GET WORSE BUT I WAS DIFFERENT IM NOT LIKE THE REST ,I COULD SORT IT OUT ,

ALL MY SORTING OUT WAS TO GET ME IN MORE TROUBLE AND MORE POORLY YOU NEED HELP ,I ONLY THREW THE TOWEL IN WHEN I WAS BROKEN AND AT ROCK BOTTOM ,IF I HAD LISTENED EARLIER I MIGHT HAVE BEEN OK ,BUT I WAS ONE OF THEM THAT KNOW BEST AND ENDED UP A ALCOHOLIC,IVE BEEN SOBER 9 YEARS ON THE 25 JULY ,

WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOU SOBER ,YOU CANT IMAGINE A LIFE WITHOUT ALCOHOL ,THATS THE FIRST QUESTION THE ALCOHOLIC ALWAYS ASKS ,HE DOESNT ASK HOW YOU GET BETTER ,HE SAYS HOW AMI GOING TO ENJOY MYSELF ,

very tru do wah. i no i have a problem with drink. but i say to myself all take a few weeks of at least at the end of that i will get a drink. then i take a drink n it could be 1 day 2 days a week or 2 weeks before i stop i dont no. but if i was told i will never get a drink again i cant cope

Thats exactly what i ask myself. WHat fun am i going to have without a drink. Will i cope?

Not long in from work. Had a shower and feeling refreshed and i keep thinking to myself. Can i just try and cut down without stopping completly. The thought scares me

hi kal mate best of luck with the drinking. me personally am to young not to drink at 20 but i reckon when i get to 28 al cut down a bit. all the best mate

I TRIED TO CUT DOWN SO I COULD KEEP SHOVEING THE POISON DOWN ME ,SO I COULD KEEP HAVEING A SO CALLED GOOD TIME ,THE ONLY TROUBLE IS YOU CANT ,YOU CAN TRY THE CONTROLLED DRINKING METHOD FILLING FORMS IN AT THE HOSPITAL AND  ALCOHOL TEAMS ,BUT ALL YOU END UP DOING ID FILLING THE FORMS IN ,WITH WHAT YOU THINK THE COUNCELLOR WANTS TO HEAR ,YOU JUST MAKE UP FIGURES YOU DONT PUT DOWN WHAT YOUVE REALLY DRANK ,

WHAT DO I DO NOT ALOT ,IVE A DULL LIFE THATS BECAUSE I WONT GET UP OFF MY BOTTOM AND GO AND GET WHATS ON OFFER FROM LIFE ,IM A MARDE BABY WHO WANTS EVERYBODY TO DO EVERYTHING FOR ME AND WIPE MY BOTTOM ,YOU CAN CLIMB MOUNTAINS IF YOU NWANT TO ,BUT I CHOOSE TO MOAN AND SAY IM TOO OLD

I MIGHT NOT HAVE A THRILLING LIFE BUT AT LAST IM CONTENT WITH MYSELF ,I DO WHAT I WANT TO DO ,IF I DONT WANT TO DO NOTHING THEN THATS ALLRIGHT ,THE WORLDS OUT THERE ,ITS UP TO EACH INDIVIDUAL TO FIND THEIR GOAL

I KNOW LOADS OF PEOPLE WHOS GOT SOBER AND THERES NOT ENOUGH HOURS IN THE DAY FOR THEM ,THATS THEM IM ME  ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN WHERE I WAS WITH ALCOHOL IN MY BODY AT THE END OF MY DRINKING

SOFEE I STOPPED THE DAY AFTER MY BIRTHDAY ,

YOULL END UP SITTING IN A PUB WITH DIAREAR ,BUT THINK NOTHING OF IT AS YOU NEED TO FINISH YOUR PINT FIRST BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING ,THATS WHERE IT TAKES YOU ,YOU WILL BE AWAKE ALL NIGHT WITH DEPRESSION WATCHING YOUR CLOCK TICK OVER ,YOU WONT BE ABLE TO SORT ANY TRIVIAL PROBLEM OUT ,AS IT SEEMS IMPOSSSIBLE

AND THATS HARDLY ANTHING THAT IT DOES TO THE MIND

cheers smithy mate.

IM SICK OF WRITEING THESE ESSAYS ,ITS WORSE THAN BEING AT SCHOOL

CHEERS SMITHY MATE IVE WROTE YOU A BOOK ON THE SUBJECT ,GET TO THE DOCTORS TOMORROW

ITS A GOOD JOB I KNOW WHAT YOU UNGRATEFULL ALCOHOLICS ARE LIKE

you can drink alcohol in moderation do wah i go out every weekend and have a great time with my mates and a good laugh

A stopping drinking thread on here always gets a lot of replies, it tells you something about drink in out society.

It certainly tells you something about drink in the gambling community 

Do Wah

I think to myself what can i do to replace the drink? The only things in life that give me pleasure is my family, betfair and drink. I maybe need to concentrate on finding a good woman and settling down.

I am fed up waking up having spent an absolute fortune. Its a viscious circle. Booze, ****, more booze, taxis etc. If i had just stayed in the past 2 occasions i would have had an extra £150 in my pocket and maybe even more as that was 2 nights away from betfair.

I feel terrible until wednesday then i am thinking about my next drink

YES YOU CAN DRINK IN MODERATION ,THE ONLY TROUBLE IS ONCE YOUR AN ALCOHOLIC YOU CANT DRNK AT ALL,SO START OFF DRINKING IN MODERATION AND STAY DRINKING IN MODERATION ,I USED TO GO OUT WITH MY MAM AND DAD AND DRINK CHANDYS FOR YEARS THEN I WENT OUT WITH MY MATES AND DRANK A FEW PINTS ,THEN I GOT MARRIED AND DRANK 4 PINTS 7 NIGHTS A WEEK FOR YEARS THEN I MADE LOADS OF MONEY HAD LOADS OF SPARE TIME TO ENJOY MYSELF SO I DRANK MORE ,THEN IN THE END I HAD TO DRINK I HAD NO SAY IN THE MATTER ,NO ALCOHOLIC GOES OUT TO BE AN ALCOHOLIC,

WITH ME IT CREPT UP VERY SLOWLY ,I CAN POINT MY FINGER AT LOADS WHO SHOULD GIVE UP ALCOHOL ,BUT NEVER ME ,EVEN MY FRIENDS THOUGHT WHAT A NICE HARD WORKING GENEROUS LAD ,DO WAH DIDSDY COULD NEVER BE AN ALCOHOLIC

WELL IM A BIG ALCOHOLIC AFTER THINKING I WAS A LITTLE ALCOHOLIC,ITS NOT HOW MUCH YOU DRINK ,ITS HOW MUCH YOU CONSUME THAT AFFECTS YOU IS THE PROBLEM

I WAS THE QUITE SHY CHANDY KIDD AND ENDED UP THE ALCOHOLIC,

YOU WORK HARD YOU COME HOME HAVE A SHOWER MTHEN YOU ASK NOW WHATS MY REWARD ,WELL IF YOU TAKE TOO MUCH ALCOHOL IT ENDS UP AS NO REWARD JUST A SOUL AND MIND AND BODY DESTROYER

IVE WORKED I DESERVE A DRINK ,THAT DRINK WILL LEAD YOU TO INSANITY OR DEATH IF YOUR MAKE UP IS LIKE MINE

  WERE THE PROBLEM ,WE DONT KNOW HOW TO ENJOY LIFE WITHOUT A DRINK

ALCOHOLICS LISTEN TO NO ONE ESPECIALLY DO WAH DIDDYS ,JUST DO WHAT YOU WANT TODO ,AND IF YOU EVER GET TO THE POINT WHERE YOU WOULD STAND ON YOUR HEAD ALL NIGHT AND WORK FOR NOTHING IF YOU COULD GIVE THE ALCOHOL UP LOOK FOR ME ,ILL TRY AND HELP YOU ,

I WOULDNT LISTEN TO ANYONE WHEN I WAS DRINKING ,I WASNT LIKE THEM UNTILL IT WAS TOO LATE ,ALCOHOLICS ASK YOU FOR ADVICE AND THEN STILL DO WHAT THEY LIKE ,

I KNOW YOUR LIKE ME YOU WANT A FAIRY TO COME AND SPRINKLE STARDUST ON YOU SO YOU CAN DRINK SUCCESFULLY ,IT DOESNT WORK LIKE THAT

IM OFF KAL84 I WANT TO FINNISH MY JIGSAW

LOOK FOR ME IF YOU NEED ME

Thanks Do Wah. Its going to be a long road to recovery. What you have said makes a lot of sense and i will take it on board.

If anyone else is in the same boat same then can maybe use this fred to share your eperiences with your battle against the booze

I stopped about 3 years ago , and don't miss it at all - the more you get in to not drinking  the less you want it , in my experience.

same here stan , i used to cane the booze every day and every night. if i had missed a sat or sun lunch session i would be distraught or any session come to that , then i just seemed to cut it out slowly but surely without even trying and i wouldnt give a gold pig for it now. it wasnt as though i said to myself i must stop it just sort of happened ,strange really. not bothered about it at all now , still have a drink socially but can then leave it for a month easily or more than that , im as happy to drink 3 pints and be satisfied these days

Fair play to you Stan - Was there a reason why you decided to stop? Did you feel you had to replace the drinking with someone else?

Pox i couldnt have just 3 pints cos i dont feel its worth it personally. If i drink then its to get smashed.

With a change of mindset do you think you could drink more sensibly? I had developed bad habits when I was drinking and knew I had to change. Once it sank in it has been easy enough to keep drinking but be more responsible. I'm not far into that plan right enough but I'm confident.

Drinking is a huge part of Scottish culture. It is hard to stop and it's hard to avoid. I admit I have thought about stopping altogether but I'm also worried about how I would socialise, which sounds terrible when you say it.

Who you are drinking with makes a big difference aswell. One of my mates drinks pints all night. When I'm sick of pints and go onto jd, it means I drink slower which means I don't get as wrecked when I'm drinking with him.

i'm a fellow scotsman too John. You are correct drinking is huge part of Scottish culture.

I maybe could drink more sensibly but want to just refrain and clear my head. I do want to be able to go out for a few without grtting smashed. Then again on the other hand i would love to stop altogther.

Maybe i will find that happy medium at some stage

If you stopped drinking John would you still socialise with the same people?

kal- "when i drink its to get smashed". your to similar to me mate would love to go on a night out with you and the bhoys. ino this dunt help but i do

That is a good question. I don't have many aquaintances. Im either really good friends with people or don't bother. Nothing inbetween so I think I would.

I do have one mate that I went to school with. He went to the RAF, I went to uni, never really saw much of him for years then became good friends again around 4 years ago. I can honestly say that every single time I have met up with him in those 4 years, drink has been involved. We have never socialised sober.

He is good company, dunno why we go on like that. Just habit maybe.

Out of interest what do you drink?

Turning point was a few sessions ago. Rushed out without proper dinner, got there and they were drinking bottles of lager, when I would have bigger bottles of cider which is my choice atm. Then the shots started, which I would never suggest doing. Then the shots kept coming, then god knows what happened.

I realised the next day that I had to show more willpower and drink what I wanted and not go along with the flow. Who gives a **** if it ****s up the round? Crazy mixing had to stop. I should drink what I want and what I'm comfortable drinking.

Once I made that desicion I felt better for it and have been able to stick to it thus far.

Saying all this I ordered some high quality bourbon online earlier, it should be here on Friday haha

^

I lived a few years in Scotland and it's true, the whole mindset is different; it's a great craic but no country for old men...

live a little, by all means, but ease off at age 30 imo

Kal84- I'm ten years sober and it was the best decision I ever made, saved my relationship with my now wife. I replaced drinking with golf, the money you spend on kit and membership fees doesn't even scratch the amount of money you can piss up the wall in a single year.

      When I joined my golf club I established the fact in the clubhouse that I was a non-drinker straight away ,therefore no peer pressure, good luck with your endeavour.

WELL DONE JACK I HOPE YOU AND JILL LIVE HAPEELEE EVER AFTER

John - I drink wine and cider. Its when I hit the vodka that fcuks me up totally and I am out of control. I keep saying to myself maybe if I just dont spirits then I will be fine

Jack - congrats mate 10 years is some going.. Its funny u mention the golf. I do have a set of clubs but never really gave it a chance. Would quite like to get into it. Plus a good way of getting fit

Kal,i decided last march to have a break from drinking.I was sick of the hangovers that lasted 2-3 days and even started having bad panic attacks!My plan was a 2 month break to have a detox,but found the longer i went without,the less i wanted a drink!Its over a year since i had a drink and its nice to get up without feeling ****!.Iv lost about 2 stone and feel the fittest i can remember for ages!Another plus is that my visits to the clap clinic have become less frequent!

Vodka is not good for me either. I don't touch it anymore. Once I decided to avoid it, staying off it wasn't a problem.

If I got hangovers I would give quitting completely more serious thought, but I don't. Luckliy. Or unluckily, whatever way you look at it. I do like a drink though. I have to admit that, so I'm not sure I'd want to give up altogether.

I like to keep in decent shape so a heavy session stops me doing much running for a couple of days, even though I'm not really hungover as such. This helps keep my drinking in check.

You seem to have reached a turning point and are serious that changes have to be made. Once that sinks in I'm sure you will find you have more willpower than you think.

You only live once, enjoy it while you can.Nobody knows when its your last day.I for one dont want to deny myself something i enjoy.

I don't want to deny myself alcohol either as I enjoy it too. However, for some people the cons outweigh the pros, so it makes sense for them to give up.

I'm back on it lads. GOt really depressed after my last binge and was wanting to quit the booze for good.

But feeling a lot better and alcohol gves me a lot of pleasure so why should i deny myself? Just need to do it in moderation.

I appreciate all the comments and fair play to the ones that are tee-total. Total respect

I'm on the wine 2nite and you can catch me on the 'Is anyone on the booze 2nite' fred

Stay off the vodka

YES IM FEELING ALOT BETER NOW,IM NOT AN ALCOHOLIC,I WILL CHANGE MY DRINKING HABITS,I WILL SORT IT OUT,

TYPICAL ALCOHOLIC ON THE ROAD TO RUIN ,TALKS TO SUIT HIS SELF

I KNOW THE KIND INSIDE OUT BECAUSE IM ONE

KAL84 HE LASTED 5 DAYS GIVE HIM A MEDAL

Mr Diddy just to give you a heads up, it's TheRankingMissP's birthday tomorrow, perhaps you could compose a poem for her, she likes poetry.

I WILL CONTROL IT ,THATS WHAT THEY ALL SAY TO THE TOP DOCTORS AT THE SYKEEATRIC WARDS ,THATS THE FIRST SENTENCE THE DOCTORS ARE LOOKING FOR ,

THEY THEN KNOW YOUR A HOPELESS CASE

SLIPPY BLUE THAT WILL BE HARD ,AS IVE NO MONEY TO GAMBLE WITH ,AND IM NOT FEELING VERY POETIC AT THE MOMENT

You don't need money to be poetic old chap. I would do myself but poetry is not my strong point and I had a terrible time at Chester, I'll just send a happy birthday text. Perhaps you might feel a bit more creative in the morning you never know, tomorrow is another day and all that eh.

YES .THANK YOU ,,I NEED TO BE PUT IN PLACE SOMETIMES,YES YES YES,YOUVE DONE IT VERY NICELY WITHOUT UPSETTING MY FEELINGS THANK YOU

No worries Diddy, she does speak fondly of you so just thought I'd mention it. Take care of yourself dear fellow.

good luck anyone on hear whos giving up or trying to stay off it, i personally couldnt think of anything worse then giving up the drink

Give up booze!

Is this a wind up thread, why the hell would anyone want to give up booze. Ive met a few geeks that don't drink and they're fooking boring.

i aint give up im off it for a few weeks to try and get a few uid together. but i agree ne1 who sdoesnt drink is fooking boring

Smithy ur young mate u can handle the hangovers. I remember the days I could go out 3 days in a row without a problem. Those days im afraid are long gone

haha orite kal mate. manchester this weekend end of season football do. meeting in weatherspoons blackburn at 12 and going from there. then five nights in benidorm starting on wednesday 50 people on stag do so i'm not giving up until the monday i get back.

Never been drunk in my life; had a drink or 2 occasionally but no alcohol has passed my lips seriously for about 25 years; it's all down to will power

You have got some week ahead of you smithy.  Bet you cant wait!

Was in benidorm 10 years ago. We got chucked out of our apartments and had to stay for rest of the week with the guys next door who were from BURNLEY. Your favourite people Smithy lol. They were good lads. Me and my pal would have been homeless for the rest of the week otherwise.

Bwnidorm was possibly the best week on holiday ever,you will have a good one

Anything u want to ask just give me a shout.

BIsh Bosher - Why do you chose not to drink? Have you replaced the drink with something else?

haha kal chucked out of hotel. been there myself mate in magaluff beach bed for last night.

As i said I was never a drinker anyway; used to be a Shandy drinker; the reason I packed the drink in totally was to help my mam who was diagnosed with Diabetes; as my grandma had it as well i decided it may well be hereditary so i decided to live a healthier lifestyle; never replaced the money i saved with anything else but went on about dozen holidays including Vegas twice ; loved the casinos & got a mortgage as well; many people tried to get me drunk but no one succeeded; as i say it's all down to will power; good luck if you decide to do it

wel rough today

alcohol is evil

rough today aswell

FEELING ROUGH IS THE LEAST OF THE TROUBLES YOUVE GOT COMEING IF YOU ,YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU DONT STOP ALL TOGETHER

It will take me until about Wednesday to sober up from this weekend.

Someone (Dean Martin I think) once said that he felt sorry for people who don't drink, as when they get up, that is the best they will feel all day.

Best thing is just moderation, ie only drink half of the time!

I stop drinking every day without fail. It just needs a little discipline that's all.

Give up when you go to bed and don't touch a drop till after midday.

im rough to lads. but fu ck it back on it for rafa v djocko

Why are you rough to lads?

The booze just isnt worth it these days

just preparin for five days of liver abuse in benidorm but still rough from weekend

should invest in some Milk Thistle Smithy.

5 days solid drinkin in Benidorm sounds brilliant. The Scotsman Bar and The Hippodrome are highly recommended

haha i will look out for them mate. no work tomoz so i am guna trade an argentinian game for first time tonight
