When I drank alcohol, I drank too fast

I don’t know if it was because I was an alcoholic or I was trying to be cool and drink a lot even though I was really thin and small and Inexperienced with drinking. I’m thinking about my college days. I was always the kid drinking way too much getting too drunk. That and my anxiety why I didn’t go to parties much. But when I did I drank too fast. Maybe this was an alcoholic trait too. I didn’t start drinking really till sophomore year college then I drank a lot.

I did as well, this is partly why I mostly don’t drink. It’s also because my dad was a alcoholic

I think I did a rather good job of drinking. It was the continual handcuff outbreaks that I found discouraging.

:sob:

Yes I used to drink more quickly than everyone else too. It’s probably a good hint that one has a problem.

Here’s the weird thing for me… Whenever I encountered anyone who opened a bottle and poured a drink and then put the cap back on, well I instantly HATED them. What kind of pussy doesn’t kill the bottle? It’s, like, a matter of Klingon honour!

I remember two friends looking at each other when I finished my drink yet again and they hadn’t. I just thought “get over it”. Fast forward to AA when I thought alchohol was worth dying for.

I had a lucky escape really.

I took it up due to voices. Been trying to quit. I feel like cr## during the day.

I had an innate craving for alcohol from the word go. When I was little I had a terrible sweet tooth. Alcohol is a form of sugar. They lowered the drinking age to eighteen when I was in high school. I spent every bit of the money I made hauling hay the earlier summer on alcohol that year. Alcohol made me feel flat good. From about the second to the eleventh beer it had an effect almost like a narcotic. The drinking I did after that felt good too.

I used to do this too.
think it was because i never knew what to say
or what to do with my hands,
So i solved the problem by drinking quickly and constantly.

I drank a lot in my younger years mostly because i was socially awkward and drinking made me feel invincible. As.i grew older i drank less and less until now any alcohol other than kahlua or Bailey’s Irish cream makes me very sick

i usually chugged pints, i dont like the taste of beer but i didnt mind if i chug it in like 5 seconds.
i remember one time i was out with my friend and his gf and some other guy and his gf.
I ordered 2 pints, and the guy beside me thought i ordered one for him I just laughed and said they were for me then i chugged them both immediately :smile: .
Then I told them that they were all going down with me and I started ordering a bunch of shots…

Thus I do not drink anymore. :blush:
