ParRoll Call 97

I'm sorry you are stuck. My family pretty much live within 5 miles of each other. Aside from 1 uncle in Hawaii and 1 in Florida. I wish I could visit them for purely the locality lol.
What are you going to do without your meds? Will the pharmacy give you an emergency refill?

Thanks. Yeah, I talked to my wife and I really want to at least give this a whole hearted shot. I'm talking to the pdoc next Wednesday about rehab and I'll talk about incorporating CBT with it. We'll see where this goes from here...

For me I tapered off the meds slowly then once I was off I lasted 9 months.....I had no voices in those 9 months....then one day it all came back......good luck

Hey guys.. .

I'm drinking again. I'm almost wondering wether I'm an alcoholic now with the amount I drink.

I had a lot last night but that was kinda different because it was social. Thing is even though I was hungover I went and got more drink and have been drinking all day.

This really has to stop.

Can you set a limit of two or something even if it's social? You can always switch to something without alcohol or alternate with water....I think the key is moderation....

What helped you to stop drinking too much in past? Come on Loial, you can do it again

I want to complain about how unloved i am, but i realize that just makes people love me even less and hate me even more.
I hate how when i tell people real, honest, concrete truths, they bat it away, because they have no ability to even begin to conceptualize the situation i am in. But it is true. And not, I'm believing a delusion true, real true.
Which i guess means i shouldn't post here, but i probably will anyway, because it won't matter, and i have no where else to whine.

Yes I used to always drink in moderation apart from socially. I don't drink socially that often these days so I think I'm ok there.

I'm sure there must be a reason I'm drinking so much. I do have a somewhat addictive personality so maybe that doesn't help.

I'm just going to have to find the will to stop. Just got to avoid the "there's always tomorrow" mentality. Have to just suck it up and stop.

Loial, what do you think the root cause of your drinking is? Do you have any dependency on it physically or mentally?

Sorry you're feeling unloved, vent away Gr3tta that's why we are here

Sorry you're feeling unloved

What worries and scares me is if you make another attempt. It was a nightmare not knowing what happened to you and where you were. The alcohol played some part in the attempt, I'm sure of that. I don't want it to happen again.

I started drinking too much After my friend died. I think it's been almost self-medicating in a way but now it's just self-perpetuating.

I'm not physically addicted, I know that much but I think I'm really verging on psychological dependence. Something I know from past addictions can be hard to break...

I know you can do it! Smoking is supposedly more addictive and you've stopped that right?

Have you considered looking into therapy....it can really help with unresolved issues....

Of course you should post here. What's on your mind?

As it happens I'm smoking again but I think drink is to blame as it lowers my inhibitions. I know the smoking is just short term at least... always has been recently.

I'm fairly confident I can do a solid effort at giving up nicotine. Just got to real with the other beast now. .

In a more accurate world this site would be called whine central, haha join in

Oh darn....sorry about that....

Thank you. I don't even really want sympathy. I want things to be Actively Accomplished but that's not going to happen and that's making me positively loco.

I think now I've come to terms with the original cause but the alcohol has just taken over.

Sometimes I get this cold feeling that you dont like me... then I figure you just don't know me too well. I fear I may of said something wrong at some point in time. I don't hate you.

So just met a nice ginger cat outside my flat... called it over and gave it a stroke but it was hesitant. It ran a few steps ahead and rolled onto it's belly but ran away again before I got to it.

I'd really like to get my own cat but I'd need to be self-sufficient.

I think pets do wonders for mood.

Idk I'm not the best to talk about alcohol with because my dad was/is a major alcoholic and that impacted my life to the point where I'll never drink. Personally though consider how it might impact not only you but your family and friendships.

Some people have To cut out all drinking including social.....you can find people who hang out and do things other than drink or who don't feel insecure if you're not drinking....not that drinking is terrible but when you do it to the exclusion of other activities it does become terrible. Just something to keep in mind.

Question though....has your addictive behavior come back with th AP use? I think it's Abilify that was being sued for compulsive gambling and the like...wonder if it might also affect alcohol and smoking?

Raising a loving fur ball has been a major source of love in my life. My life would be empty by without kitler to come home to. Best present ive ever been given.
