I do drink but at the moment it’s only a small amount to relax me a bit before bed

I got a part time job about a month and a half ago.

I haven’t had a drop of alcohol since 2004, that was the year I was diagnosed and put on meds. They told me not to mix alcohol with my meds and I never have.

I have had non-alcoholic beer, which has less than 0.5% alcohol, but very rarely.

I no longer drink tea, coffee or alcohol and gave up cigarettes five months ago. If only I could give up food.

I had to quit drinking. It got me in trouble, and it was killing me.

I quit alchohol, weed and cigararettes years and years ago. My diet is good too, I mostly eat healthy food, but I still drink 1 coffee in the morning and then green/black/white tea throughout the day.

That’s a weird poll @anon47167357. It’s not either binge drinking or abstinence.

I’m currently trying to avoid becoming an alcoholic I have a strong urge to drink each night from people following me etc. I drank from last night to the Thursday the previous two weeks every night. Tonight’s the first night I’m sober

When I say drink the most I have is five drinks

What’s considered binging? How much is too much on meds?

Funny thing is @crimby and @Headspark I don’t feel any better for it. Maybe when I lose weight I will appreciate my efforts more. Well done to you both.

I don’t think it has to be that black and white.

But to answer the question,

I have a couple drinks most nights.

I found the poll unusual because it gives you two choices, so I chose both.

It strange how we haven’t evolved the ability to combat alcohol yet. I have a feeling humans have been drinking for tens of thousands of years not a few thousand.

Those are both tough questions, @anon47167357! I think by some definitions I do binge sometimes, but I never lose control or drink heavily two days in a row.

I’m trying to stop altogether because my symptoms don’t really warrant alcholhol abuse I don’t think, it’s more me celebrating I don’t have audible voices and part of it is stress from paranoia though. Part of me thinks I shouldn’t stop because il prob get fcking cancer anyway

I really abused alcohol when I was younger though so I do have a propensity towards it, that’s why I’m worried because I also have an addictive personality

I drink once a week at the most. Don’t have a job, though. I usually go out with friends when I do drink, and they’re kind enough to pay.

I drink rarely and just a bit like one beer or a small glass of wine, nothing more as it makes me depressed and tired.
