what am I missing

gettingsmarter

I'm a big fan of waking up with an impending sense of doom.

- Ruining friendships/relationships
- Looking like a complete idiot
- Wasting money
- Hiding who you really are

Thanks for this post. Just what I needed. Today was seeming very hard

Poor diet choices,
Poor fitness regime,
Poor choices of potential romantic partners,
Financial insecurity,
Mental illness,
Rage,
Itchy skin,
Poor eyesight,
Alcohol is second only to smoking as one of the most common carcinogens,
Receding gums,
Bad breath,
Incontinence,
Diarrhoea,
Acne rosacea,
Trips, slips and falls whilst drunk,

FarToGo

Aches and pains, premature ageing, forgetting stuff all the time, looking like a fool (without knowing it), impatient and grumpy with nearest and dearest, spending way too much money on poison, neglecting stuff.................

Great thread! I needed this today too, thanks!

self hate
insecurity
sadness
regrets
exhaustion
crying myself to sleep after drunken fights with a boyfriend who I need to break up with since he is also an alcoholic

Ridiculous emails, texts, postings that seem "clever" at the time, but make you cringe in embarrassment later.

Lennox

Oh gosh! The embarrassing posts I have had many of them! Cringe!!

Daylightsavings

Stupid arguments about meaningless stuff. Creating memories for your children that are completely about video games. Poor performance at work. Trapped at home because too drunk to take kids to the movies

Trying to figure out why all the clothes in my hamper are wet.

(...because I peed in the hamper.)

MyTime86

My face use to get bright red. Not anymore

Fluffer

Waking up on the Metro in the middle of the night going the wrong direction in the wrong part of the city.

Bailey3

Having the neighbors tell you about some drunk that was walking around the previous evening. Hoping and praying it wasn't you.

Thirdwave

high blood pressure
a generalized attitude of i don't give a bleep
night sweets (and day sweets)
a preoccupation with any situation of how do i get to my alcohol
trying to remember where you stashed your bottle
getting pulled over with an open container
waking up with your eyes sealed shut
being a work with a splitting headache that last the whole day and then some

exwell66

zero motivation
riding my bike to the store to pick up my fix
moments not to forget...taking a dump in my friends planter in his living room in front of friends......waking up on the floor with rugburn on my face...shag carpet...and # 2 in my draws...still not funny today

My experience in short order:

Lose drivers licence

Bankruptcy
Eviction
Gain 50 pounds
Nights in the ER
Nights in a jail cell
Lose fiancé
Lose dignity
Rock bottom

ishallnotwant

-Inexplicable bruises
Having an impending sense of doom knowing that something bad happened last night, but you just can't quite remember...
Checking the car bumpers and tires for blood

Yankee73

1) spending more money on booze than on rent
2) looking at least 10 years older than you are
3) digestive system turning against you

Waking up feeling horrible and hating myself.
