what effects does alcohol have on you…?

I’m an alcoholic, so I would end up dead if I drank. So “Death” is the effect alchohol has on me.

what did you drink and did you ever enjoy drinking ?
Pretty much anything. Beer, wine and spirits.
did you drink everyday?
Alcohol would just amplify my aggression and anger, it has only ever had a negative effect on both my mind and body, which is why I do not drink alcohol at all now.

I quit years ago, but when I did was not very good at it, I get drunk really easy, (don’t get any idea’s ladies 
) i get bad headaches the day after, in all it is not enjoyable for me, think that is why it just faded away for me.

I think at the end, before I went to AA I used to drink everyday. But previously I would binge drink every so often.
When I binge drank I wouldn’t drink socially, I would drink to practically pass out. “Finish the job” as I used to put it.
is there different types of alcoholics?
Alcoholics are people so everyone is different in one way. But in another way, we’re the same in the sense that we have a problem with alcohol.

but what is the problem is it the alcohol or the problem or both?
Alchoholism is a disease. It’s progressive in the sense that it gets worse over time. I started out drinking socially. Then binge drinking, then drinking everyday, then drinking more and more every day. And I couldn’t stop. When I went to AA, I thought alchohol was worth dying for.
alcohol is a drug

I don’t go near alcohol because I have an addictive type personality, or did in the past. I remember the hold cigarettes had on me and know better than to try booze. My Faith forbids it and it’s too expensive, too.
When I drink, I become much more moody and volatile. I used to drink every day (self-medicating) but haven’t drank now for quite some time. I don’t like the way I am prone to become when drunk, plus, like @PinCushion said, it is contrary to my faith as well.
Had 3 beers last weekend. Got drunk in a very unpleasant way. Recreational psychotropics don’t do me any good. Seroquel compounds this I think. Tea, coffee and nicotine only for me.

i smoke and that is the worst thing. i have tried numerous times to quit smoking and it doesn’t work out. alcohol is the same for me. i have like 4 or 5 beers each night and i’ve tried to stop but i just can’t cope without it. i don’t even get drunk when i drink. it’s just the fact of drinking that i’m addicted to
