Life I am and was a drunk - Page 3

**Smed1065** · 09-13-2011, 10:14 AM

I have tried to be real and not lie.

I had and have (get the **** out) a drinking problem.

There has also been the others. I accept that it is me because this is not the first time in my life.

At the same time, I can not understand why the haters, hate. I am trying to do the right thing and be honest, joke and be me.

It is just sad because I was a drunk but have contracts and slacked off at home.

I still made 65,000 a year and slacked off (TY Sprint)

Now, I am trying to move forward and better myself but folks here hate me.

Just curious.

Actually trying to understand.

Thought CP was my heaven as rough as it might be to us all.

Now just want to be the asshole and say **** you N00bs

Skip style.

Half of CP are raging drunks, that's no excuse for being hated, and really should make it less likely. Try again.

Maybe you should talk with SR. He is right there in ATL and has been through this.

Drinking only at night is for quakers.

Its always happy hour somewhere, and that place is my house.

That is why 12 step programs are so effective. People who've never been to an AA meeting don't realize all they do there is make fun of the noobs.

I used to come home late and not a minute too soon
Barking like a dog, howling at the moon
You'd be mad as an ol' WET hen, up all night wonderin' where I been
I'd fall down and say come help me honey
You laughed out loud, I guess you thought it was funny
I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

Now I'm paintin' the house and I'm mendin' the fence
I guess I gone and lost all my good sense
Too much work is hard for your health
I could've died drinkin', now I'm killing myself
Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

Now I'm fixin' the sink and I'm mowin' the grass
You made me a list and I'm bustin' my - WELL....
All broke down, tail's been draggin'
It's a tough ol' life up here on the wagon
Now I'm feedin' the dog, sackin' the trash
It's honey do this, honey do that
I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'
Yeah, I sobered up, and I got to thinkin'
Girl you ain't much fun since I quit drinkin'

Your message was coherent enough that it is apparent you aren't drinking nearly enough.

Not ridicule. JMO. Carry on, and feel free to take it out on me. I've been drinking way too much lately myself. You're not alone Smed I promise you that. Be well.

ya, and I know some AA people that used pot to get off alcohol and are fully happy to be away from that drug. but some of the shit people say here is just ****ing self serving whining. to those I say get a ****ing clue would be my suggestion. maybe YOU log out ****wads. it's a god damn mssg board, not the library.

smed, I don't know you at all and I could be mistaken here, but as I recall you are suffering from the desease cancer and I understand the condition is overwelming you. your choice on how you deal, but I want you to know what you're doing is hurting your chances of recovering. alcohol is not only a depressant but it destroys the immunity system's ability to amp up at a time yours really needs wants to do so.

Dishing out hate is just as addictive as having another drink. It's a high dude & they hate themselves in the morning too, only with a boner

Inspector · 09-13-2011, 11:54 AM

Good luck dude. I think Mr. FAX is providing some really good advice.

Not sure what the steps are but seems one of the first is to admit to yourself that there is a problem and it seems you've maybe already crossed that hurdle.

Nows the time to get it fixed up. You still have time.

No sh*t.

Winners never quit, and quitters never win. Cheers!

As an added bonus, he'll show you how to win the lottery.

I know how difficult it can be to struggle with a substance abuse problem. It's a long, hard road. Many have traveled that road, though, and found happiness and serenity at the end. Joe Walsh comes to mind.

Given that, here's my suggestion. Start hitting the AA meetings. Regularly and religiously. You will make lots of friends there with whom you can discuss the things that are important to you. I'm confident you will discover that you share many of the same concerns and desires as those guys. ChiefsPlanet is a cool place, but it is no replacement for a good, solid program where you can engage with like-minded persons who are walking that road just like you.

In all seriousness, listen to FAX. 90 meetings in 90 days if you are truly intent on quitting.
