    Reason and his twin stupid brother...

    :eeks: :eeks: Just something to share...

    I think maybe "Reason" has a twin stupid brother and his name is "Duh".
    When I'm drinking, "Duh" quietly slips in and fills the spot where "Reason"
    usually sits, so I think "Reason" is still there taking good care of things.


    What happens after drink one? Sometimes nothing. Sometimes a little
    "tingle" or something that says "this is kind of nice".

    So OK, here comes drink two. I can always "feel" it somewhere before the
    end of drink two, but I've still got all of my faculties (or so it seems).
    For me, after that 2nd drink, there's that almost imperceptible "glow", a
    knowledge that I now feel a little different, and sometimes I really enjoy
    that.

    By that point I know I *MUST* know exactly where I will stop. I know that
    because if there is anything at all vague about how many more I will have,
    "Duh" will see to it that I keep on drinking.

    Here's what I know about me...

    1) If I'm enjoying that little glow then I'll probably want to keep on
    enjoying it, at least for a while, and I don't think there's a thing wrong
    with that.

    2) Reason (and experience) tells me that I WILL feel it for a while without
    needing to drink anything more.
    3) "Reason" is alcohol's first casualty.


    So you went over your plan... Oops. Next time just make sure "Reason" has
    already made a good decision for you BEFORE you drink, then when the time
    comes let "Duh" decide whether you want water, coffee, or fruit juice.

    Chokleteyes, nice observation...
    I feel there are two absolutely distinct sides, making up my addicted personality.

    I wonder if it is a form of schitzophrenia

        Actually what you are describing is "Dissociative Disorder" not that it really matters. For some reason it's always referred to as schitzo or schizophrenia in the movies.

        I totally get what you're saying though...after drink #2 or #3 something kicks in and we change our agenda for the evening....in my case the fun yet irresponsible part of me takes over.
        Patience has its limits. Take it too far, and it's cowardice.
