theory alcoholism
To Alcoholics……?
I am doing a class project on alcoholism. Not having anyone close to me suffer from it, I have trouble understanding sometimes. What I want to know, is if there is anyone out there who has suffered from alcoholism, sought help through AA or another form, and has been able to get back to a medium, such as a social drinker, or having a drink casually as most do without having any problems. OR do you need to not touch alcohol at all?
Also, the second part of our project, is determining if many are “Excused” from being seen as alcoholics simply because they are in college. So if anyone has thoughts as to the theory “You’re not an alcoholic until you graduate” please let me know. We’d like to see if the amount an alcoholic consumes is comparable to that of your average college student.
THIS IS SERIOUS SO I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF THERE WERE NO JOKES OR BOGUS POSTS ON THIS MATTER
Thanks
Hi!
I started my first year of college at what many people would consider a “good” university in August.
I wasn’t a drinker until I got to college. My mother and her husband drink rarely, but my father, whom I was not raised by, is an alcoholic and his father was an alcoholic.
I started drinking as an activity to do with my new living mates. I started to realize that I was always the one asking “what happend last night?” I tried to change my ways so that I wouldn’t get fucked up as much, even though on occasions that was my goal. I tried hanging out with ppl that drank differently, only “pre-gaming,” only drinking when I got to parties, eating a full meal before drinking, and changing my preference in drink, but I always ended up fucked up as hell- like pissing my pants, vomiting, blacking out, waking up with bruises and such.
I got into trouble with the university often ( I know the whole system like the ABC’s)
I can’t begin to tell you the troubles that I got into- but really, no matter what troubles I got into NOTHING could stop me from drinking.
I am not even done with my first year of college-just because you’re in college doesn’t mean you can’t be alcoholic.
I am grateful for over a month of serenity and sobriety. They go hand in hand for me.
