i've quit drinking too. minus the christmas party at work i havent got drunk in a long while. i decided i was gonna stop doing it some four to five months ago. basically i had the same experiences you had, i just got depressed and it wasn't that much fun anymore. i think it's got something to do with smoking weed and then quitting.

good luck with everybody stopping drinking. i remember last xmas i was addicted to that red wine. i was depressed it was pathetic. i was depressed so i drank and drank. and alone. that was really pathetic. i tend to drink or smoke when i'm depressed which is not a good thing at all. even if it brings me happy for a some time.

anyways good luck rukas, u seem motivated, dont hang around too much around people who gets drunk too often and u'll be fine.

Wouldn't call it pathetic. You were depressed and you delt with it any way you thought would be best. That's far from pathetic. Way back I used to drink hard liquor alone. Seriously, who gets drunk off baileys alone.

Anyways, your not doing it anymore (I assume) so it's all good. Your clean :thumb:

Ruk, question.. roughly how much a week do you spend on drinks *rough figure*

This may not help, but maybe it relates to you somehow. Just see how much u spend a week, and then a month, and cross check that to your overal living expenses. If moneys not an issue, as in you making enough for life and got plenty left over, its always a new perspective to see what you COULD be spending that money on instead.

I know ppl who drink,smoke enough a week that they could be paying small bills off, or hell pooling it into something larger like even an rspv plan. (yah so wut if ur young, even 20 bucks a month can add up over few years/decades)
I get drunk once a month, maybe less, and spend $50-$100, like I said I dont do it often, recently its probably been once every 2 months. I drink inbetween, but just dont get drunk drunk.

In my defense...I don't drive "drunk" I know it sounds like I'm trying to justify drinking and driving...I'm not. I drink while I'm driving yes...I don't drive if I can't walk straight.

Obviously this could potentially be a problem and I would never want to put someone else's life in danger...so drinking while I'm driving is definitely a "drinking problem"...that I just started doing recently...but I will try my hardest not to do it anymore :(

I don't think I have a drinking problem otherwise...I don't binge drink.

GoodLuck to Rukas and everyone else...

I havent touched alcohol for about 6 months now. I really didn't see the appeal of getting blasted and waking up so merry and cheerful. Plus the fact that your slowly killing your body from the abuse.

Start drinking alot and I mean alot of water and you will forget about alcohol; well to the you the truth I havent dranked a soda in months lol. Good luck man.

You spend around 50-100 only? shit thats nothign.. i know ppl who spend that much in a few days on drinks easy.

anyways, just a thought, just think bout all that other stuff u could be doing with that money.

Well for me, getting drunk used to be fun, it was a way to party, its just not fun anymore and so has lost all of its appeal.
yes.

i cant remember when its lost its appeal for me. i still drink occasionaly bascialy for the fuck of it but now when i go out i just get bored and wish i stayed home cause its to much of a process. either that or i make a complete dick of myself. funny thing is im only 18.
