What's wrong with alcoholics?

Question

I used to be an alcoholic. I had a problem. Someone wanted me to join AA, but I declined. Know what I did? I stopped drinking so much. I still drink whenever I want at parites but never get out of control anymore. Why? Because I have a brain. AA is for people with absolutely no brain. Their logic is if you dont have the first drink you can't have the 15th. Yeah, and if you never get into a car you can't get into an auto accident. You see where this logic breaks down and enters the realm of stupidity.

I feel sorry for all you people that got sucked into AA and now your lives suck. Gotta go, going to have a beer and dinner with my wife.

Holly - 13 years and counting. And yes, I can do it my whole life. It's pretty easy. I dont need AA to do it for me. Only idiots like you do

corezink - wow, you're stupid! LOL

Answer 1

The first thing mentioned was beer,
then dinner, then wife. Doesn't sound
like control to me. Why would you feel
so strongly about it?? Did they kick you
out for showing up drunk. They do have
a lot of rules. Maybe it was the rule about
believing in a higher power. ?? Did you
fail at that also??AA has helped a lot of
people, it's no ones fault but your own
if you're not one of them. Why the rant??
Not for nothing, but no one gets sucked
into AA. It's free, and all about free will.
You want help it's there, you don't, you're
free to go on your way. The help will always
be there when you need it. Praying for you.
Everyone is wishing you well.

Answer 2

According to Harvard, 80% of those with a drinking problem quit or learn to moderate on their own, only 10% ever seek treatment.

Do people in AA think that nobody ever got sober before AA?

AA loads the language, if you stop drinking with AA, either you're a "dry drunk" (and not really sober) or you were never an alcoholic to begin with. 61% (AA's own figures) go to AA under a mandate by courts, employee assistance programs, or government agencies, the large majority of these people are not addicted to alcohol, only people that got caught being stupid.

Answer 3

Talk about stupid? This guy thinks everyone is just like him. There is absolutely no difference between his brain, his immune system, his anything. If you've seen one human, you've seen them all. What a dope. I'm not an alcoholic but I don't have to be to know we are all different. Where some become addicted to certain things very easily, others don't. The same can be said for smokers. Some are addicted to tobacco and some will never be. The question may be asked, What's wrong with Stupidity and Ignorance?

Answer 4

You have found a way to justify drinking, before that I know it was alot harder to drink. Knowledge about Alcohol can sure ruin a good drunk I know, and although you tell me that you are ok, we both know you are only a puppet. You are pissed off for so many reason, mostly because you want to be able to drink like everyone else,ie; your friends. Well, you can fool yourself today, and drink as much as you want, but you will never be stronger or smarter then this real Demon 'Alcohol'. I laugh at your ignorance just as the demon inside your head laughs with me. You know the truth as well as I do, there is no need for me to preach, you head it all before. Alcohol has got you just where it wants you. Enjoy your ride into hell, I have been where you are and am still laughing at your stupidity. Write to me sometime if you ever decide to get yourself back in control.

As my feet slap down against the cold wet pavement, and my face drips rain from the storm, an unrelenting need to drink pushes me further. Exact final destination appears unknown , but it's inevitable that the evil inside will again return me to the source of my nightmare. No control, no will of my own, no power had I found that might evict this hell that had infected my body and mind. Self-identity, and all that was once me, had been buried under countless layers of drunkenness, so deep, that any calls for help were merely an echo inside my head.
This living liquid curse, cunning and without conscience, had been absorbed into a body which at one time eagerly welcomed it's unyielding influence. But now, as the onslaught of alcohol turned viciously against the world around me, it was only I being held responsible for it's drunken destruction carried out during my imprisonment.
Those intense fear ridden mornings, when I awoke to find yet another nightmare of alcohol's creation, devilishly constructed from it's own personality the night before. Whether it was the sight of dried blood crusted over both hands, or the unfamiliar surroundings of a place where I shouldn't have been, alcohol knew how to render me frozen with crippling insecurity. Too frightened to reason out a healthy answer as to what was happening to me, a deliberate terror of conscience always reached out and tightly gripped my soul. This devil, disguised and hidden behind my own recently drunken face, knew exactly where I'd run to for help. This was much more then an accident through drink. Alcohol's intent was to survive at all costs, to live and breath it's own existence using me as it's host of choice.
But, now, unaware of this developing transformation, all I wanted to do was calm the terror inside my head. There would be only one place, one exit, one chance to escape into a feeling of normality. Alcohol left nothing to chance, and as it waited patiently for me to return a bottle to my lips, I could almost hear a deep sullen laughter quicken my mobility. I desperately needed to lock myself away into the only security I knew, and to experience that precious freedom, I once again had to ingest my enslaver.

Answer 5

How long have you been controlling your drinking? Betcha you can't do it the rest of your life. But, hey, whatever works for you - just quit trashing a program that's save millions of lives and made their families lives better. Peace.

Ah, Kevin, or whatever your name really is, I've just looked at your questons and you're just having a bit of fun at our expense. Well, I bit this time but I'll be watching out for you next time.

Answer 6

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, sorry to say, but you are quite wrong. Fact is dear chap, you are not an alcoholic. The term alcoholic refers to one who is gripped by the inability to abstain from having more alcohol!! The simple fact that you can stop and still be standing, no blackout episodes??, means that you are not an alcoholic, no yet anyway.



PEACE & GOOD HEALTH

Answer 7

ignore all these brainwashed idiots saying otherwise. I agree with you 100%. It is all about making people hypnotised slaves for the US medical industry is all it is. Just like if you were a mental patient. they are trying to get you to admit you are "crazy" , so they can have you as their little slave . It is all about slavery and $$$.

Answer 8

I used to drink alot but it was nothing compared to my true addiction: ***-raping corpses. I can't stop. There is no help in the form of Corpse-***-Rape Anonymous (CARA). I'm thinking of starting a chapter.
