  • As long as I can remember since sometime in May I have pretty much had alcohol every Evening. I drink A half bottle of GIN 35cl and two cans of Stella. The space of time I drink in is from 6pm till 10pm when I fall asleep. I am working ATM and when I do I work on an island doing a 9-5 job everyday, that’s 7 days a week for 7/8 months. (I only have three weeks left) Anyway you might think this is an expensive habit drinking £15 worth of booze everyday but it’s actually free. because i steal it. I have been saying to myself every night while drinking i want to stop but then at the end of my shift the next day i take my booze and start drinking (alone) I watch TV shows and play games online with some mates. I think this has to end..

    I’m a drunk.
    I’m a thief
    I’m a bad person.

    But my new life starts tomorrow.. I vow not to be this person anymore.

    I don’t think you’re a bad person mate, you’ve done a brave thing by coming to realize it may be a problem.

    who hasn’t stolen alcohol?

    but trytameanie is right that coming to the realization that it isn’t ok is square one for making improvements.

    I had a friend who was mentally ill, not drooling and stuff just capable of thinking and breathing at the same time. She walked into something Morrisons (don’t remember exactly) but she was under the impression that it wouldn’t be stealing if she just took 3 bottles of whatever it was and drank it in the storeroom. When the police arrived and informed her that empty bottles are worth a lot less than bottles filled with alcohol and that the value would be walking out of the shop without paying because it was inside her, she just couldn’t get her head around how it could possibly be illegal or even wrong.

    I did it again.. But this is deffo the last time now..

      Stay strong, even if it’s hard :group_hug:group_hug:group_hug

      And NO. You are not a bad person. You’re a person who need help

      There’s a big difference!

      Well done mate and good luck.

      Good luck in beating your addiction EpicLulz. Why do you drink, if you don’t mind me asking? If there is an underlying problem driving you to the booze then that needs to be challenged first of all otherwise you will fail at giving up the drink or likely fall back on another substance.

      As much as i can remember I have drank a lot. The only time i stopped is when i go on a drug binge. I much prefer to take drugs but out here i work everyday and have to time. At least when i drink i know i’ll be fine for the morning. I am very board at nights, i mean i have the opportunity to go out and do things but i can’t pull myself together to do them. I have a rep of being a happy, laid back guy and everyone i know thinks the world of me. If they knew what i was up to i think i would die. I might be depressed or lonely I really don’t know. I am on the booze again tonight and i sorta feel better for it, The time passes quicker and i’ll be in bed before i know it.

      I’m pretty much the same with weed. It’s as easily accessible as alcohol round here, despite being illegal, and it’s my go to drug. Not my first choice but preferred over alcohol and I can function the next morning. It’s a frickin difficult cycle to break, even more so when you have other none related problems going on in your life.

      I’m going to try exercise tomorrow and change a habbit to something good, that can become a cycle too i think.

      It’s good you’re thinking about things to take your mind off things bud. Step 1 is realizing that maybe what you’re doing may be a problem, which you’ve already done and is a massive step. Step 2 is finding ways to fill your time with other things which I’m chuffed to see you trying. It’s a long road mate and it’s rarely straightforward but you have the right attitude and I know you can do it/. I look forward to the day you post your success story.

      Guess what!??? I managed to get more without getting any alcohol. This means tonight will be the first time i got through a who 24 hours without booze. I have two 2l bottles of Irn-Bru and a massive bar of chocolate to help get me through this. I feel this could be the first day of many.

      feeling: positive
