So I got drunk tonight to get this feeling that I like a few years ago. It's not there at all. I can't get my mind to that state of mind like I could before. I'm not upset for getting drunk nor I was not in the mood to drink. I will wake up tomorrow a little hungover and remember this.

I'm a little upset that I could not feel that way but I'm going to feel better after this feeling is over.

You can't force something that is not there anymore.

Shouldn't it be getting drunk is not the same.


I was happy once I realized that alcohol does not affect me the same way and I couldn't acquire the feeling I was looking for, and it just gave me another reason not to drink again.

Last time I drank two weeks ago, it was after I had immersed myself in this website and I also could not conjure up the old relaxing feelings. I don't know if I am better educated, scared, wiser, or what....but I didn't even want anymore after three beers. I just felt depressed and unhappy, none of what I thought I should feel. I think SR has ruined drinking for me!!!

You live and learn, and I think you learned. You'll come back smarter tomorrow and have yet another reason not to drink again.

The last time I drank it was awful. I never got that pleasant feeling of 'detachment' but was just sick and felt awful. Never again will I do that to myself.

A little bit of recovery, seriously puts a damper on using/drinking again. You know enough that you stopped, initially, for a reason, you've read/posted here, and that doesn't leave your mind.

Glad you're not going to continue trying to get back that old feeling...it won't work. Trust me, btdt.

Hugs and prayers,

I drank last night too. It was so pointless and all it did was rob me of the 5days I had.
