I doubt you're better off dead.. better off sober, probably.

When you want it, you know this is a great place to get some support.

Hi raveneyes

I remember feeling exactly like you do.
Many of us here have found there is another way to live.

The way out of the cycle is to get help, find support and stop drinking.

If you feel in any danger tonight I hope you'll call 999.

kdr143 11-04-2010 04:07 PM

do what you do
You got to want to be sober
i had to learn i had to want this for myself
i know i have another drunk in me but i don't know if i will have another recovery!!!

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:07 PM

Its so tough loosing a job you loved, working outdoors etc, handling birds of prey, i started taking vodka and orange juice on the last couple of weeks, day my contract finished i got drunk at my mates, started crying whilst reading the leaving card i got, got a bird book too :(

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:09 PM

now im on job seekers allowance, im not looking for a job tho, i dont think i can deal with n e thing crappy :(

Dee74 11-04-2010 04:11 PM

That was my solution for many years - needless to say, given we're both here, it doesn't seem it got either of us anywhere much....

We can talk tomorrow about better strategies if you like.
Take care, mate.

I know i can quit but then i feel good again after 5 days off it, come Saturday im like woohoo weekend time! i got into the habit of only drinking at weekends for a while, now i drink 5 days on the trot, occasionally taking 5 days off but more often than not a day or 2.

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:23 PM

I also have no appetite after drinking, is that normal?

Dee74 11-04-2010 04:24 PM

I got like that too - with both the forgettign how bad I felt, and the increased drinking.

I never understood before why people said alcoholism was progressive, but I understand now.

I really hope you'll get some help, RE.
I just added a few UK links to the stickies here - maybe something to consider tomorrow?

i forgot to say is tht i can eat when drunk but its the day after im talking about, i like food but i dont like forcing food down me to hide the fact i cant eat, my dad eats like a pig which makes it tough.

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:28 PM

Aslo i get upset stomach now and diorrihea when i have no appetite i hope this isnt a sign tht ive damaged myself or n e thing...

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:30 PM

i only just 24 :( didnt start drinking till i was almost 18, everyone drinks when they r like 13, why do i suffer?

Raveneyes 11-04-2010 04:33 PM

find it amazing tht this has only had 19 views but its had 18 comment, you are all wonderful..im still totally messed up and getting drunk, ill try to come here tommorrow

whenartdeparts 11-04-2010 04:34 PM

nah this is just withdrawal...when I drink, I go without food for 5-6 days (depending on how long the bender lasts) and then needless to say, the day after I can't eat too...i force myself though, even though i eventually have to throw it up...but step by step and day by day i eventually "learn" to eat again
this spring i went on a two weeks bender, did not eat ANYTHING but a pack of crisps PER WEEK...when i sobered up, i felt like i've forgotten how to chew, it took me a week to finally eat a whole meal at one time!
