      What Did You Hate ABout Drinking?

      Blackouts and all the stupid things I have done. Been rude, embarresed my self and other people, broken promises, had anfair, just all the things that has made me feel bad about my self and hate my self. Also that discusting feeling many weeks after bad drinking to meet people who saw you drunk or you spoke to.
      GRRRrr I hate almost everything about wine

        What Did You Hate ABout Drinking?

        feeling lousy all the time
        lack of sleep -- passing out doesn't count as sleep.
        internal body shaking
        guilt
        being robbed of time to do worthwhile activities - read, listen to music, watch a movie
        the emabarassing things I've done -- some I remember, others I don't
        driving when I shouldn't
        being unable to concentrate at work the following day
        etc, etc, etc......

        Thanks for this thread, when I see the reasons I typed it makes me wonder why on earth I would ever want to drink.

        And one last thing - after one or two wines it doesn't taste good anyway.

                There is a passage in the Big Book that says it best as it is in part my story:

                "The less people tolerated us, the more we withdrew from society, from life itself. As we became subjects of King Alcohol, shivering denizens of his mad realm, the chilling vapor that is loneliness settled down. It thickened, ever becoming blacker. Some of us sought out sordid places, hoping to find understanding companionship and approval. Momentarily we did-then would come oblivion and the awful awakening to face the hideous Four Horsemen-Terror, Bewilderment, Frustration, Despair. Unhappy drinkers who read this page will understand!"

                    These really tell it all. I agree with everything. I go AF two days and think I'm doing great only to blow it and then wake up in the morning reciting all of the above replies to myself. It really sucks...why do I do it. The self doubt, unaccomplishments, insecurities, fuzziness (although I have that anyway), inability to concentrate on ANYTHING, not remembering things my family members are telling me they told me, the bloat, the eating after a binge, and so on and so on.

                      I have to agree with everyone. I have wasted so much time drinking and not remembering. All of the sudden my baby boy is now a teenager. I hate myself sometimes, but I refuse to look up one day and he is moving out of the house, and I never saw it coming.

                          The look your kid gives you when he sees you are not drinking out of a Diet Coke can--you are drinking out of your "drinking glass" again...

                            The feeling of "needing it" to cope
                            Patience has its limits. Take it too far, and it's cowardice.
