You're looking for attention from those gullible enough to play along, to enable with their words. You found a couple. Did that help? Do you feel stronger and more likely not to drink? I doubt it. It's so much easier to use this medium than to effect true change in the real world.-DEADLY SUSHI- said:To be fair there are several types of alcoholics.
Im not a crawler. I rarely black out. I drink too often. During holidays its everyday. 3 or 4 days strait. When its just a regular week I drink 1 or 2 times a week. BEFORE AA I was drinking almost every day and forgetting what I did the night before.
Yes Im an alcoholic. But I dont need a shoulder to cry on. I have my support group.
It really frustrates me to have someone think thats why I wrote this thread! Especially after I made it clear I did NOT write this thread for that reason.
I had someone encorage me to write about my problems. And I hoped that it would open a small floodgate of people that ALSO have addictions. So we can talk about it.
Some people DO need a hug. (Eva Longoria Im here if you need me) And some people DO need a support group and someone to talk too.
When I wrote this thread I had that in mind. That along with lots of beer and a fun evening of self loathing.
But youre darn tootin' right when I read:
Maybe she was trying to motivate me. Maybe it would 'sound' better if she was on the phone talking to me. But written out it just sounds horrible.
I would like to answer more questions before folks throw out 'tough love'. Maybe there really isnt any more alcoholics on here to speak out.
What you are doing here and probably have done in other threads is the cyber equivalent of narcissistic drunk calling and nothing more. Please don't insult us with baloney about floodgates and support. It is you who are being rude and insensitive by exploiting the good nature of your DC pals and by attempting to make your them complicit through your maudlin self-pity.
