real bad time in my life i was unemployed and hitting the sauce hard all day every day, finally got a new job and 3/4 of the way through the shift i found out what real DTs was

started shaking uncontrollably and it felt like my brain was being electrocuted, i think i was about that close to having a seizure. got in my car and somehow drove to the liquor store to get right again. like i had to hold my debit card with both hands, thats how bad i was shaking

i chilled out on drinking after that and now its only beer for me

Damn. God bless!

You need a proper mushroom dose to reach a breakthrough and re wire your brain to not want alcohol

bruh, it was said sarcastically...because that's my MO...with everything in my life, except drinking...the license is a result of the drinking...the no [medical] insurance is only because i'm switching jobs...

and I do feel ashamed...what part of my post gave u any other idea...

Sarcastic or not, the fact remains that it was irresponsible of you to be sober driving around without a license or insurance, let alone doing it drunk. I don�t care about the irrational ways you�re trying to rationalize doing it.

You stated you felt ashamed and I�m reiterating GOOD, you SHOULD. I did so because I didn�t want all the patting on your back go to your head in this thread.

Damn son. Glad you made it out ok. Real talk. Never had a drinking problem but I stopped just because a few years back. Just got turned off from it. You can do it too son. You will feel way better mentally and physically. Meditate. Reach for that higher vibration daily. Before doing anything else. Good luck on the driving without a license situation. That�s gonna be tough.

It's good that you are alive to talk about this OP.

But, this part of it is where I see a little CAP.

By the time the ambulance and cops get there and because this was hours after drinking, I had no alcohol on my breath

You said you had been drinking for quite a few house before the accident happened right?

So, i'm not believing that you didn't have ANY alcohol on your breath. I've drank like that before quite a few times and when you have had that much alcohol it stays in your pores for DAY's!!!

But, he you said you did have any alcohol order. So I'll take you word for it...

First off if this isn't a wake up call/rock bottom for you then when it is some people are going to be dead and your a$s is going to be in jail.

You need to get some support group around you if you don't want to go the religious AA route. I had a homeboy that was a hardcore alcoholic for years and years anyways I get a phone call from another friend that his a$s had blacked out in an airport and tried to fight security so he was driving the 12 hrs to scoop him up and I took off work to drive the 10 hr to my friend's house that picked him up and had the "coming to jesus" talk with him and held a mirror up to show him his fu#ked up life and his a$s was getting clean for the week I was down there. So I go back down there 6-7 months later for another friends funeral and he's drinking again so I said fu#k it and cut dude off. That whole story was if you don't have some support system that knows what you're going through the it's only 1 drink it won't be like it was before will creep in and your a$s will be right back where you were

not angry at all about this post and i am angry at myself...i'll take all the kicks in the ass....I do want to point out though that I don't drink like that (in terms of frequency for what you're proposing)...I do think a professional would help, but I don't need assistance in not drinking...that part is easy for me...I will admit that this sounds like i'm minimizing the problem...trust me, I'm not...but I get why some of y'all think I drink a often or a lot based on my post. I need the professional help with listening to others who have been through those experiences....been the most helpful posts in this thread. My God has sent the biggest message it could to me...worth a million professionals.

If you think so but at one point in my life I was one of those professionals believe it or not. Not have I counselled people with alcohol and other drug issues but I have I also ran groups on them. This is why I'm "triggered" by this because I for the almost ten years of my life I have worked with people that have done some pretty f-up things while under the influence. Including men and woman who have not only killed innocent victims but also people who killed their own family, friends and even children behind what you just did.

Problematic drinking is not just how much you are drinking but it's also how you're drinking has effected your life and most importantly the community as a whole. Because a lot of people drink but a lot of those people do not crash their cars like this or have DWI's. If you are doing sh1t like this even if it is just once, then my friend you have a problem, that obviously you can not fix by yourself or else you would've already. Hence why I believe you need a professional to step. Truth be told you're going to see a professional one way or another, whether it's by you being proactive and seeking one out or by you being reactive and being ordered by the Court to see one, you will see a professional at some point. That is of course unless you don't k1ll yourself before you get the chance to see one.

Let me ask you a question? How many times before this crash and your past DWI conviction have you driven under the influence? I'll answer for you, a lot. How do I know? Because nothing ever happens suddenly. You will not wake up tomorrow to see a tree fully grown in the middle of your street. A seed has to be planted and watered over time for it to grow. Addiction works the same. You have been driving under the influence for awhile before you're first DWI and you were probably getting happy and confident because you were never caught.

I bet if the very first time you drank alcohol drove and crashed that would've (probably) had been the final time you ever did it. But because you "got away with it" you got happy. Well here's some truth for you, no ever gets away with anything sooner or later you will pay the piper, it's just a matter of when. This is why I'm talking to you like this. Now if and when (because I know you will) do this again and this time it goes worst for you (and it will) you can never say that you were never told. If you believe in God sending you a sign, then take a second to think out of everything i could be doing right now, why am I taking the time out to leave this long a$s message to you. Maybe just maybe God needs to hear it or maybe I'm just some rando dude on the internet talking sh1t. That can be true as well. Get help bruh before it's too late.

Hes lucky hes not dead or killed anyone. This is a huge wake up call.

definitely a wake up call moment, furthermore if hes considered the responsible one in his family, I'd hate to know what the others are like, i say that respectfully.

You might want to save this part...youre leaving yourself an opening. Each time you think about it read that comment

Example...ur at a resort but you have no car and cant drive so you drink...

Then you start doing every once and while when not driving...then eventually...

and put that pic as your phone's background

I hope they don’t pull anything out their a$s on son being he was suspended on a DWI already.

And damn I didn’t even see who wrote this sh1t. I didn’t see this was my guy

until I seen your post.

Hold your head fam. I don’t live in BK these days or I’d most definitely help you on that road to sobriety since your peers stuck on what they stuck on. But just know you have to travel where you’re going in life fo dolo sometimes.
I know you say you don’t have an issue not drinking but you seem to have an issue making the decision not to over indulge. That’s an issue in itself. Drinking problems don’t have to be having the urge to drink everyday. It can be a problem not knowing when to stop when you start. Or what decisions to make when you do. That in itself means it’s not for you. No way around that family.

What does drinking do for you? I know you said you like to drink and socialize, but that's a cover up. Really, I'm asking you brother, WHAT does drinking DO for YOU?

It's interesting you say that cause I was watching this clip the other day, and the subject of the boom that helped her get past it is countering everything that drinkers tell themselves in order to drink.

[see video]

I don't drink or have read the book but apparently it's a book that's raved about to solve those issues. By the way freakymane you asking the real questions cause it gets to the root of the problem by having the person look in the mirror and ask these questions.

This is the book she's talking about by the way

u right, but I was saying that as to not to be preachy to those who drink...because i anticipated someone telling me (like my family has so far), that 'just don't drink and drive'...and i'm tryna tell them, that for me personally, the alcohol haven't worked for me over the last few years.

I lose sh1t, ride the train for hours (got robbed doing that), etc...so while they're thinking that I'll eventually go back (mind u, remember that they're all drinkers...) so they're like, 'alcohol ain't bad by itself, just make better decisions and drink responsibly,' I'm tryna tell them like nah...i feel like i'm incapable of controlling my decisions when I get too far going, so for me...the liqs is definitely the problem...could've worded it better tho...good looking out.

Definitely it will be a test when I go on vacation because of exactly what u said...because I'll be thinking, the worst thing i'ma do here is fu#k a fat bi#ch...but u never know...it can cause a relapse into drinking when i get back home...I'll remember this exchange next vacation I take...and now I'm gonna have bi#ches thinking i'm 'boring' because I don't drink...but oh well...the weed will hold me down...

How/what train you got robbed on? The L?

Yeah bro u were bless, but if that is not a warning sign, I don't know what is. Me personally Drinking isn't my thing, I'll have the occasional beer here and there, esp moreso come summer and warmer weather because I reach a lot of festivals and bbq. Also, tend to drink a little more here and there if I'm on vacation, but I'm not an alcohol guy as I would start getting migraines if I have too much. My vice is food and eating sweets which trust me is just as bad as drinking. Tough when u work 2 jobs and are always on the runaround to go place to place. Not only that but certain foods just trigger a happy, nostalgic feeling of times especially when I was a kid but I know it's gonna be detrimental to me in a big way. Luckily one of my jobs requires me to constantly be on my feet moving around or I'd legit be a rollie pollie. I say that to say this we all got things to kick before it's too late
