What does it mean

if I got sicker on less alcohol than I used to? Does it mean my body is rejecting it more vehemently than it used to? Or just that my tolerance dropped in only week?

I think that happened to me, or rather it didn't matter how little I drank I still felt dreadful. I think it was just the accumulation of all those years of drinking.

Does it really make a difference. Poison youself a little or a lot. The point is your body is rejecting it

Whats scary about your post TO ME is, it sounds TO ME like you are trying to say that you can now drink one beer and only get sick etc.

ME drinking one beer today would eventually lead me to 24 beers and a load of trouble...

I admitted to my dad that I drank last night. He was livid. SO ANGRY. I've been crying for the past half hour.

the first

I agree with gall SO MUCH. That first one, after any kind of run of sobriety, is what does me in. My BigBrain tells me I can just have one or two beers as a celebration. Before I know it I'm waking up the next morning with a garbage can full of beer cans and feelings of self-worth also in that garbage can. I'm finishing up Day7 today, feel strong but wary, I've been here so often.

I'm sorry he was angry with you. The last thing I would do is call someone who is going to be angry with me, that certainly doesn't help when we already feel bad about it. Maybe his anger will help a little as deterrent???

Glad you're still here, Here.
