I am sooo drunk
| Sun, 02-01-2004 - 11:33pm |
Do you think I am crazy ? I d0 sometimes. I have to find my way. But I am 24 and this is OK. Everyone I know that is my age spends more than half there time at parties. I think that I shouldn't drink but I don't know how I could ever not drink. I'm so stupid to post this here. I know there ara other peopel here my age. Do you ever drink? It's so hard for me not to. I get so down and tehn I don't know what else to do . Has anysone else gone through this. I need some advise please. I don't think I can quit but at the same time I feeel guilty and my therapist always makes me feel bad because I am on the medications that i am on. Its not that simple or that easy. Am I alone?

thanks for posting so quickly. I really needed a response. I don't know what is up. I think I may be one of the dreaded "self-medicaters". Once I get on a low or a high really I start to crave alcohol. I once went to AA, but I didn't identitify. My husband is a true alcoholic. A serious alcoholic, and I am not the same. I don't know what I am or what my problems are. Am I depressed, bipolar, alcohlic, just drinking, normal or kinda crazy? I don't know. I don't know where I am....I'm trying to figure it out.
Thanks for answering and listening. I needed to hear from someone. I'm actually here in Houston, avoiding Superbowl (I have a thing about football). Went to a restaraunt for margaritas. Probably a bad idea!

I know that many of us reach for the oblivion that comes from drinking and when you are young, it is very easy to get caught in the trap of drinking.
I just love quoting songs, especially if I feel they articulate a certain feeling or have relevance to a life situation-- this one (from a Dead Can Dance song) really summarizes the conscious struggle I experience to stay healthy : "I need my conscience to keep watch over me to protect me from myself." (I wish you could hear the song, it's great, but that's beside the point). So I guess what I'm saying is, I have gone through something similar to what you are talking about. I guess if it's mild (like my experience), then consciously tending to your habit may be a big help. Keep an eye on yourself, as if you're your own guardian. Hm, it's late and I'm tired and foggy now, but I hope this comes as somewhat of a consolation and if i'm of any help, great. Please take care of yourself.
Love and sunshine,

Hi sweetie.
I am 25, but I grew up with an alcoholic mother so I try to stay away from alcohol. I drink when I go out and stuff, but unless I am going out all night, I don't drink.
I just wanted to say that I am here if you need to talk, you can email me through my profile.
Take care

I am bipolar and my mom was a BAD alcoholic when I was younger.

I have been MIA for a couple of days, but wanted to come back to this post and thank each of you for responding and giving me your unique input. I am sorry I came and posted while I was in that state, I was alone, and apparantly really wanted to talk. All and all, my tdoc is right that I shouldn't be drinking on these meds. I've never had a problem drinking on the AD, but I was also taking an Antibiotic and this anti-eptileptic medication for the bipolar (which I stopped taking now). I imagine that the combination of that coctail with one margarita and three beers is what caused me to feel the way I did. I admit it - very bad idea!!! I also think I tend to beat myself up (as I do in all situations) way to much on drinking because I have seen what alcoholism does and I am very afraid of it. However, I do know that I am not an alcoholic. I give a special thanks for advice from those who are survivors of these kind of relationships.
I also wanted to let you ladies know that I did not have the little one with me and would never put him in that kind of situation or danger. I have to go pick up my son, but will be back soon. I have been thinking about everyone here - each of you is so sweet and I feel blessed to have the chance to come here to talk.
*see* ya soon,
Piruli
