>anon discovers addiction and chemical dependency
You need to be over 18 to post on this site.
OP don’t listen to these homosexuals trying to fearmonger you out of a good time
The same argument as those gymcel losers screeching about how going out with friends and talking to girls will kill your gains
>The same argument as those gymcel losers screeching about how going out with friends and talking to girls will kill your gains
Explain in your own words how someone saying not to talk to women is comparable to recognizing the signs of a chemical dependency.
Because both come from “nooo you can’t do that you can’t have fun and go out and experience fun things noooooo!!!”
So what if OP had some drinks, and with the gymcel argument, so what if you go out and have a burger and a beer and talk to people, you are fine
If having a few brewskis makes OP sleep better and feel better, then let him, the warriors and kings of old did the exact same thing
Don’t listen to these gays OP. They’re jealous of you and don’t want you to succeed
You feel good now?
Wait until you have some drinks and throw a bit of driving in the mix…
I can imagine maybe a woman not being able to drive while "drunk."
I drink one beer in the shower after every training session, I feel great and have been making steady progress
One beer in is the most pathetic state a grown man can be in. I would unironically rather kill myself than drink 1 beer daily ... like wtf
I drink more when I want to. I just don't want to on usual nights. Grow up
You're an alcoholic. You are having withdrawals. If anything this should be a warning sign to you that you should stop entirely because you are well past the point of moderation and full on addicted.
See this would make sense except I don't drink very regularly
I'm assuming you're under 30, probably still a little drunk in the morning and hangovers don't hit you like a truck yet.
As long as you're still taking care of business and getting gym in you'll be fine, for now.
>t. Raging alcoholic in my twenties in great shape
Be real with me is a glass or two of wine and a couple beers a lot?
Depends on your tolerance, if that's what you do you'll probably start moving to higher amounts, but in your twenties I wouldn't worry about drinking

I've heard that its only in your 20s that your body will be so forgiving,
but it doesn't really feel so forgiving.
It just feels like I am not demoralized enough to stop fighting though the pain every day.
I fear that when I hit 30, no wife, no kids. Just working, lifting, and drinking, I will spiral out of control. This keeps me going.
Every morning I regret what i've done and think, I need to stop,
but every evening after work I am so fricking pissed off that I cannot relax unless I am hammered.
I'm afraid if I don't go to the gym in the morning, thats when it will truly be over.
At least when im in good shape and have a good job like a good little wagie, people think I have my shit together and tend to ignore the fact that im a raging alcoholic.
I switched to wine around your age for those reasons
>Hard liquor: unforgiving, blackouts and actual shakes
>Beer: bloat and expensive for little ACV
I was also bigger than you at like 180 so that probably plays a part in it. If you regret it you should probably cut back, you'll like yourself more with discipline. if you're not having fun stop punishing yourself or try a different alcohol until you find one that works for you. If you can work a social job like a restaurant where you interact with qts on the regular, it's more fun acting crazy with them around
>switched to wine
I guess this is good advice. I never really drank wine.
Once I went to the package store for some because it was in a recipe I saw. Figured I better make it two for good measure.
None of it ended up in my recipe. sadly.
>try a different alcohol until you find one that works for you
Its the same molecule no matter what you put it in. If you're drinking a different one its probably not made for human consumption haha!
> If you can work a social job like a restaurant where you interact with qts on the regular
Technically I can, and did, but now I have a "good" job in an office all day
the problem is I can only fool women so long, then they realize I have a problem.
I'm pretty fricked up, but nobody knows because I stay fit and have lots of money (that I blow on booze)
I can only imagine how much money I would have saved if I wasn't spending 35$ a night on johnny walker. i need cheaper booze
>the problem is I can only fool women so long, then they realize I have a problem.
Then I guess the question is what do you actually want? The workout hard drink hard method is good for fun hook ups but if you want a decent girl to stay you'll have to be more domesticated than how you are now.
I was pretty happy getting drunk at your age but I pushed away a lot of quality women I regret now in my early thirties. Didn't really look where I was going.
So only you can answer this for yourself, you don't need to tell anyone but ask yourself what you want and how to go about it. You being disciplined to go to the gym gives you a good leg up btw
you need to taper off slowly or your life gets destroyed
i was drinking a bottle a day and i totally ran out one day in a location where i couldn't get more and the nearest hospital was hours away. I would have called a helicopter if i wasn't sure i would die anyways lmao. i spent three days laying in bed twitching and hallucinating without being able to sleep at all, shit sucks
you're addicted, gz
First time I'm going sober and feeling positive towards the future. I have stopped drinking for some months before, but this time feels different. Like I want to stop instead of being forced to stop.
I have "gone sober" a few times in my life
The first time, I wasn't an alcoholic and so I just stopped, not realizing I had dodged a bullet.
Thinking nothing of it, a few years later I decided to go out with the boys.
Had such a good time so I keep on it.
Stop again because it sucks.
Months go by... my friends think im some kind of weirdo for abstaining. Finally they coax me into going out again.
I decide I will make myself hate alcohol.
I drink so much vodka, go out drinking, come home, sober up as much as possible, then kill another bottle of vodka.
I am completely sick for several days.
I quit for several months. I wanted to throw up at the smell or sight of booze.
Then... what do you know. I am craving alcohol again. Nice isn't it.
In that cycle too, could be worse though
This could happen but I have some goals I want to achieve now so I hope that will keep me more disciplined than before.
sorry m8, I don't mean to discourage you, but I should say that the first few months is always easy for me.
Watch out for the cravings after that, they can be pretty bad. Especially if you're always getting offered to go out to drink.
I am so anti-social now because of my abstinence from alcohol. Some times some pretty women will want to go out for drinks after work, but I have to decline, but I always think what if. Maybe I wouldn't be single an alone.
But ive already been kicked out of so many place for fighting random people. And as I said, I am just a little guy, fit, but still little and sooner or later I will get my shit rocked by someone bigger. So I just stay home and get plastered like a gentleman.
great another alkie psy-op.
bankrupt.
bad sleep isn't feeling like shit in the morning. well, it is, but thats beside the point.
waking up feeling good isn't a clear cut indicator of good sleep
like muscle damage that you don't feel until it really hurts, bad sleep fricks your brain slowly, almost unnoticeably. but it adds up over the years, and like stress, it'll permeate every other aspect of your health
do not, my friend, get used to drinking in the evening. it will take hold of you, and you will regret its absence
i get the same thing dude, its weird. i dont drink enough for it be addiction related either
granted there is definitely a line where more than say ten beers destroys the effect, but just a straight bottle of red wine has me feeling great and horny af the next day
I’ll eat when I’m hungry and drink when I’m dry and if moonshine don’t kill me I’ll live till I die
