whats up user whats got you down

crippling depression

Do you take medication?

What if he was a happy alcoholic, why you throwing around assumptions, Pa?

Hey fellow Sup Forumsro.

judging from pic and crippling depression and the fact he is on Sup Forums he is not happy

no, i self medicate with booze. been thinking of seeing a doctor/therapist but highly doubt they'll be able to understand, what with being normalfags and all. i also have a fear of prescription pills.

haven't been on Sup Forums for a long time, just wasn't sure where else to post this. like many of us, Sup Forums was my original board before it turned to absolute dogshit

Well you seem like youve been through a lot user wanna talk about it?

you ever get the feeling where life is just seemingly passing you by, like you've completely wasted your potential and settled for the lowest common denominator. i was a smart kid, top of my class, but rather than see it through to the end i threw it all away and now i sit alone in my room working a dead end job with a steam library of games i'll probably never play. there are times i just stare at the computer screen, completely absent. i am at the point of giving up and will probably an hero

well you still are that smart kid we all make bad decisions once and a while im fairly young but i know the fear of dying at any moment and im scared of that since i have many regrets. you have so much potetnial all you need to make it in this soceity is money how you get that money is not important i dont wann get all joker like but if you wanna do something do it only limitations are the law and you start streaming maybe make friends to play with and stream together find a purpose user and try filling that hole. i have never met you in my life and i dont think i ever will but i know you can do anything you set your mind to user what started your sprial?

Literally everyone here

you got that right

Yeah Sup Forums is shit now. Try to find something else besides booze, I take CBD OIL to help. But alcohol is shitty, not worth the fucking effects. Sadly I’m still fighting it.

Killing yourself wouldn't be worth it, there's always something to live for. -B

You are not alone. There is another user group for people like us. They understand. I have 7.5 months sober now. Go to a meeting. Lurk in the back, you don't have to say shit, just go. I put it off for way too long.

>what started your sprial?
probably my parents getting divorced when i was 15. i stayed with my dad and it was really hard seeing him so sad. i could tell he was crushed, and that's hard on a teenage kid. that was right around the time i started drinking and doing drugs. i started neglecting my studies, and for a time it was awesome. instead of reading the gay ass books in english class i read lord of the rings instead, which was fucking great. i used to love getting stoned and reading fantasy novels like the chronicles of thomas covenant and HP lovecraft but that just made me more reclusive and autistic. sooner or later i was a full blown alcoholic drinking hard liquor every day to the point i could hardly function

CBD oil didn't help me for long. Neither did Naltrexone. Tried the Sinclair Method. Took anti depressants, still drank on them. I just had to quit. it got easier.

yes divorces suck my parents tho i feel as if they shouldve gotten one a long time ago sometimes these things happen and it hurts user but letting that define you letting your pain be you is a bad thing to do try to find that joy in reading again maybe find your dad and talk to him be with him thearpy is such a good idea and even tho its a fag thing to do its the best we all are a bit faggy sometimes dont feel ashamed of thearpy please talk more i wont mind listening to what you have to say

Well shit, I went cold turkey for a month and relapsed. Sorry to hear it didn’t work, I’m still trying myself.

>i am an alcoholic

How much and what do you drink?

I used to quit for a month a lot and go back to it. I stopped for good once I went to AA. NOt for everyone, but I tried everything else first.

Fuck outta here with this question

stop drinking and you’ll feel better

I'm a 39 year old virgin.
Do you want to be friends?

This. First week is the hardest, especially the first 4 days, but you can do it.

i view it as a form of temporary suicide, drinking to the point where you black out. i love it. i have this constant chatter in my head and it seems the only way to shut it out is by drinking myself into oblivion. i do this regularly.
i go on benders, will usually drink a 26er per session, 3-4 days in a row. not sure what that is in american but when i say 26er i mean 26 ounces, usually rye or bourbon

How could a happy person even be on Sup Forums?

We call that a Fifth. Even though they are metric now, 750ML. That's about where I was, maybe a little bit more. If you can quit for a few days in between benders, just skip the next bender and it will get a lot better. DO NOT get your body physically addicted to alcohol, thrust me. ROund the clock drinking will ruin you...

Ditto bruv, family's starting to worry and I dont know how to respond.

Bro you sound drunk right now too. Just know slow down a bit by bit. It takes steps even when we fuck up.

I was there two years ago. It wasnt fun. I guess im still there because i have a few beers every day, but im not doing half of a fifth like before. Avoid hard A and take some time to enjoy being sober everyday before you go back into the void. Its actually fun to be in control of yourself.

Sounds intense why do you this do you feel a sense of calm? if so you can essentially get the same thing by getting a goodnights rest. what else do you do?

Hey OP i love you bud work to be better im heading to bed i have school but try to get help and therapy and know that someone you've never met before hopes and believes in you gn user

I'm good now, haven't had a drop since March.

it's this neverending cycle where i will drink a few 'fifths' as you call them over the course of several days to the point where i begin feeling physically ill. take a couple days to recover, then repeat the process. amazingly enough i have managed to stay employed through this whole process.

If you tell them you're an alcohol they're not gonna give you the good stuff anyway. At best they'll throw you on prozac or some other pussy shit. It's still better than drinking yourself stupid everyday. You clearly have issues if you can't control your drinking.

Your life is ruined retard

i wouldn't go that far. damaged maybe but not ruined. if i had aids it would be ruined but i don't shut shut your dick hole niglet
