Samilia Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I was watching True blood (love that show) and Sookie gets drunk as hell.. and it made me wonder who got drunk after their break up. I know I didn't, I hate hang overs haha I wonder what crazy things people do under the influence of alcohol..
StarlaStardust Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I did, and it was the only time I got drunk for over 2 months since. I'm a lightweight, so after 2 beers I was drunk, and the miserable reality started to really set in. I was out with friends who kept drinking, and I just sobered up and waited for the night to end. I drank last week and got pretty drunk (2 beers and a shot, lol, lightweight), and it was a fun time. I prefer the safer alternative of marij*ana, so I consumed large amounts of that for a while instead. Much, much safer alternative. It helped me get to work on those mornings that I was nauseated and puking with anxiety (yeah, I was pretty bad right after the breakup). But things started looking grim at my company, so I gave that up in case I needed to pee in a cup for another job one day soon. And I've been coping sober since. It's really fine:) Exercise is one hell of a drug.
RogerWallace111 Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 It's been five weeks, but, I was thinking about her a fair amount today, and will be doing some drinking shortly. And am slightly looking forward to the relief from the cyclical, irrational thoughts. Would be drinking regardless, though, as I have tomorrow off and several friends looking to have some fun. I've drank the pain away a handful of times, and though I typically only get minor hangovers if anything, the way it affects sleep is the main ****ty thing. Prevents your body from entering rapid eye movement, rendering the rest almost worthless. Let yourself sober up a bit before bed and eat something if you must get schnockered to ease your pain ! And of course it's a temporary solution (at best, as you could end up having a sad fade). I don't know if I agree with those who seem to suggest it will prolong your sadness though. Just temporarily take your mind off it at the cost of feeling tired/nasty (which will depress many)... Stoli and cran it is !
RogerWallace111 Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Smoking weed leaves more lingering depressed feelings than alcohol for me... And can make me trip out unpleasantly about my situation. But yeah, strenuous exercise is crucial !
Author Samilia Posted July 4, 2012 Author Posted July 4, 2012 I don't smoke weed, once in a blue moon. I like drinking socially but I typically don't drink alone. I don't see anything wrong with it, as long as it doesn't evolve into alcoholism. My family has a solid clan of alcoholics, so I just stay away from it, on top of not feeling like I need to drown my sorrows. Once in a while I do have a spoon of cough sirup, it puts me to sleep like a rock

I know I didn't, I hate hang overs haha I wonder what crazy things people do under the influence of alcohol.. I did ... I ended up falling asleep on my bathtub lol Not such a good experience...

BlazePT Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 lol.. and how was your neck feeling when you woke up? Lol... When I got up, I was leaning my head sideways for about 15 mins... It hurt like Hell!
StarlaStardust Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Just don't get drunk and contact your ex ! Haha, I leave the phone at home!
skyisfalling Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 i am sooooooo guilty of getting drunk and contacting my ex. haha its funny how even when your soo drunk you can't pronounce your own name, your fingers "magically" happen to know how to dial your ex...
DuchessKaye Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 LOL! Ha! I did! Throbbing head and sore throat for 3 months straight after break up. The pain in my heart stayed though. No amount of liquor saved me from it.
coltsfan1 Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Tbh I stayed drunk for months after my break up. Not the wisest decision I ever made, I got smashed on my motorcycle. I was sober but living to fast, that was a painful and hard life lesson. But boy I put a LOT of jager and whiskey away in a 8 month time frame. At almost 2 years after break up I can drink in moderation and like prior to meeting my ex I control the booze. It does not control me.
Gulf-Delta Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I've avoided it. Moslty because I don't wanna do something dumb and drunk dial her. Plus, alcohol is a depressant.
melenkurion Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I didn't touch a drop for around a month, and I didn't get anywhere near drunk for about four months. I didn't trust myself...
Thisisbs Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 Tried but felt even more **** in the morning. Tossing and turning for 5 hours and just reminiscing on the past. Bad idea ;P
vroom Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I do still everyday.. But den I have drinking problem from before.. Previously, called her a couple of times.. She talked and rocked me to sleep.. But not any more.. It's just the dull pain and alcohol..
magneet Posted July 4, 2012 Posted July 4, 2012 I have been boozing away since i moved overseas, i mean like 5 nights a week... Drinking whiskey and surfing the net. I did that for 6 months, obviously I had some smart messages to send tin that state. then I stopped drinking for three months, trained hard and now its just occasionally. even though the realisation of the break/breakup only happenend a couple of weeks ago. but yes, i guess most men take home mr daniels in time of need...
melvin Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 I actually did the opposite. I think drinking at first would be ok with friends, then you might hit some depression.
eunpa Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Me! When we started talking about breaking up I bought a bottle of wine and proceeded to drink 2/3rds of it. However, it also helped me just cry and go to sleep instead of cry and stay awake all night feeling horrible.
