1 bottle of at high proof alcohol

>>14798213
Once or twice a month, and it's one of those 750ml bottles throughout the course of a day, which usually gets me close to blackout drunk. Don't drink at all except for those days.

>>14798213
excess to me is throwing up as soon as i get home
i havent since covid, i only drink a lot when im having fun with people and i havent gotten to do that in months. latelt i will have a beer every few days but thats about it

>first dark and stormy
feeling good
>next two dark and stormies
definitely feeling it mr krabs, but not sloppy
>4th dark and stormy
the sweet spot
>5th dark and stormy
spins, nausea, wake up still drunk

>>14798213
Luckily I'm a lightweight so my excess is basically one shot of hard liquor
saves on money and I don't get hungover
it's a win win

>>14798213
I used to go through a 24-case of 16oz Narragansett and 2-3 bottles of pic related every week. As far as "excess" goes, to me that would mean completely shithouse, blackout non-functional. I've only ever been that drunk about a half dozen times.
I used Covid as an excuse to start cutting down. Now I'm only having one or two beers a night.

>>14798213
Drinking in excess? Whatchu know 'bout that? Whatchu know 'bout that huh? Nothin'.

How many fucking alcohol threads need to be up at once? aren't the other 10 enough for you?

I have a pretty high tolerance for alcohol so I need to drink a lot to get really fucked up. Usually I'll have like maybe 4 or 5 shots of liquor before I really feel something. I can only remember two times where I got blackout drunk

>be me

>doing hooligan shit with friends in the woods
>we are smoking weed and drinking, older friend brought smirnoff and a bottle of jagermeister
>while friends are smoking, i drink the entire bottle of room temp jagermeister until there was like two shots left

binge drinker here

1-3 times per month I'll drink 6-10 beers. I used to drink daily same amount for around 2 years. Ruined my health and my mind for a good while, wouldn't recommend it. I see drinking as "feeding the beast" of addiction and just something that occasionally has to be done.

>>14798531
>6-10 beers
>binge drinker
faggot that's pussy shit

>>14798213
only when my parents are over and I cant smoke out of the living room gravity bong.
excess is more of a time factor than volume. a six pack all night I might feel a buzz, chug 3 beers in less than 3 mins more than a buzz. ymmv

I drink a couple times a week (3-5)

Typically 1-2 drinks.

Excess is like 5 drinks

I just got out of the hospital a couple of days ago. I've been drinking about 3 handles of vodka a week, from wake til sleep, bringing water bottles of vodka around with me everywhere, even work and driving, for about 3 years. My body finally just said no more, I had no appetite and couldn't eat, throwing up twice a day, and I was sleeping half the day, getting up every few hours to pour a 4 oz shot. My liquid consumption was solely chaser, so I was severely dehydrated. I was a shaking and felt like I was having a heart attack constantly, I had extreme anxiety like I was gonna die, and was a nuisance to everyone around me. I quit my job because I couldn't stay when I was so "sick". Finally when I was having vision problems and my chest pain was spreading to my arms, I went into the ER.
They admitted me and did an EKG integrated, and my heart was fine. I told the doctors everything, and when I was shaking around and groaning from anxiety, they dosed me up with lorazepam, and it didn't work, so they gave me two more shots. That night I blacked out and puked twice. They gave me like 8 IV bags of water. My resting heart rate was around 140-160 BPM, and my blood pressure was 170 over 111. As I was detoxing, I was seeing things in the room move and shift, was seeing shadows and things moving around the room, and although my dreams were generally good and I didn't have nightmares per se, as I was waking up I would hear the nurses around me talking as if I was still in the dream about something crazy I was dreaming about. The next day I slept until around 7pm, and I really just wanted to leave. They wouldn't let me leave because I still wasn't stable, my blood pressure and pulse were still through the roof, and I was still apparently delirious. So I stayed another night, finally ate a meal for the first time in a week, and started watching TV. They gave me more Lorazepam so I could sleep, and the next night they just let me go. It was hell.

Since then I haven't totally stopped drinking, but I've cut way back, not touching liquor, but I've had like 8 to 10 beers a day, which for contrast is like less than half of what I was drinking before, and I haven't felt a buzz at all. I'm having clarity of thought for the first time in years, and am looking back in horror at what I've done to myself. I'm only 26 and my liver and heart are shot. I'm planning on quitting altogether while I still have a chance of turning my life around. It's not even that hard, but detox just isn't something I was able to impose on myself, and it took hitting the wall to wake me up. I have never been in a hospital, never seen a therapist, never been prescribed a medication from a doctor in my life, so I wasn't about to go in the middle of a multi year binge to seek help, it was just day by day, drink to drink. Anyone seeing this coming for themselves, don't feel emasculated to seek help early, I wish I had now and you will too.

>>14799429
>>14799451
holy shit anon
I hope you will be able to turn things around and quit
alcohol addiction is some tough shit, destroys people worse than many illegal drugs

>>14799429
>>14799451
I wish you the best, man.
Keep fighting.

>>14799429
>>14799451
i hope it works out for you anon. i believe in you.

>>14798427
good man, I salute you

In my days of heavy drinking I'd like 4-6 pints of 5% beer to chase a 350ml bottle of rum.

Quitting now because it's a boring drug.

>Quitting now because it's a boring drug
yeah, I don't really get the appeal of getting drunk alone
one beer or a glass of wine to relax makes sense, but you can't really do anything fun when you're drunk as fuck alone in your apartment, just lie in front of the TV and go to sleep

>>14799650

You sound like me, those days are usually not very productive

Holy smokes anon, you need to switch drugs asap.

>What does excess look like for you?
if you're not finishing a handle in one sitting you're not a problem drinker

>>14799719
You also probably have a functioning liver

>>14799719
if you're finishing a handle in one sitting your main problem will most likely be death from alcohol poisoning

>>14798213
>How often do you drink to excess?
maybe every couple of days... three or four times a week at worst, sometimes I go a full week without drinking to excess, just depends on how I feel
>What does excess look like for you?
getting completely blackout drunk where I only stop because I passed out-- I've drank to this excess in under two hours with only one bottle of 80 proof vodka, but other nights I can milk out almost two bottles over several hours by pacing myself

my father, my grandfathers and my great grandfather were all alcoholics so even though I don't have children at least I'm carrying on their legacy in some small way

>>14798213
When I feel like it.
I can go a while without drinking if I want to. Sometimes I will go 2 or 3 weeks without a drop, and sometimes I drink a few times a week.
I have a fairly high tolerance and can put down a bottle of wine and 3 or 4 shots of vodka without too much of a buzz.

6 beers is excess for me, 4 is ok but 3 is the best :D

every saturday night I drink a fifth of whiskey

>>14798866
Nice of you to put on airs you mommas boy faggot. If you pay to live somewhere why the fuck do you abide by your dad and his fuckpuppets “rules”

Fucking cuck

used to drink about 500ml/day of liquor. I think that is a lot. I think it was making me really sick and I never felt good So i've stopped for a month and I feel a lot better but I'm really bored lol

>>14799948
:D

>>14799451
>Since then I haven't totally stopped drinking, but I've cut way back

dude it was 48h ago and you are still drinking you need to seek help asap

>>14799429
this is why i shill tapering.

why did nobody tell us how bad alcohol is? 5mins on wikipedia about all the shit it does to you should be a wake up call.

i burned 5 years of my life on this garbage.

>>14798213
In the past 3 days I've drank 3 crates (18 cans each) of cider and lager.
My room is currently a sea of empty cans.
Woke up at almost 5PM, will probably end up going to the shop to buy more soon.

>>14800594
But yer liver bro

>>14798213
Daily. Being autistic and dealing with normies is a bitch.

400 ml of whatever liquor, few times a month
anything more is a level of dysfunctional I don't want to deal with.
Been drinking much less. Cut beer completely long ago

Every Friday and Saturday without fail, If I get a 3 day weekend I drink on Sunday also. It used to be PBR and Jim Beam but now I'm working my way through 6 bottles of $5 vodka and chasing it with water. I've also been shitting blood for a month.

I know for a fact that Im an alcoholic. I used to gi through a handle every 2/3 days. Now I only drink on Friday nights and taper off into Saturday with a huge jug of cheap ass wine, which is still bad but not AS bad.

>>14798213
Like, only once per 3 months, but I drink often with moderation with usually mid-high liquor.
I'm pretty hard to get a blackout, for some reason. But I just get very, very tipsy, but still able to have a hold of myself.
The only times I had a blackout was when I had nothing to do so being completely relax is probably key for me to get a blackout, haha.

>>14798213
Was every weekend but I've slowed down cause I started a new job and until I'm off the probationary period I'm trying to stay on my best behavior. To me excess was anywhere from 12-24 beers in a night with shots of tequila (3-5) and a pack of cigarettes. If I pissed the bed I know I was really fucked

> to excess
Basically never. Tipsy is fun so I'll have a glass maybe once every two weeks but being fully drunk sucks. I don't understand why people would willingly deal with that.

>>14800581
they did in school but fuck teachers i didnt listen

>>14800611
same, not seeing a lot of self-medication discussion in this thread

>>14798453
is he still getting shit faced and passing out on livestream?

>>14798213
I last drank to excess in about 2004. It looked like 20 ounces of Southern Comfort mixed in ever increasing ratios with 7-up. I was sick for 24 hours afterward, and have not repeated such idiotic behavior since.

Today 2 room temperature Guinness on a hot afternoon suffices.

>>14798486
the alckie lifestyle gets wild, get used to it or quit

At my worst, 1 handle of liquor every 2.5 days; or a fifth of liquor and a bunch of beer or wine or day.
Right now, nothing.

>>14803656
Per day*

>>14798213
I only drink a few times a year but I just had a few beers while I was on the toilet and I'm fairly buzzed

I have 1-2 drinks with my significant other over dinner every few days. It's comfy.

I never really drank to excess consistently. I have drunk unwise amounts occasionally, however, and I realize that I really don't like feeling drunk. So I really don't anymore. That said, I can probably tolerate red wine the best. Knock back a bottle in one sitting (with dinner) and still feel okay afterwards with no hangover in the morning.

>>14798486
>he says his family are alcoholics so they didnt really mind
kek, did you also buy them alcohol as a gift?

Half a 750ml bottle of bourbon gets me wasted but not so far that I can’t handle myself in public. That’s my limit.

I’m very tall and moderately fat, for some context.

>>14804493
Oof. Once a year to answer OPs question

I used to drink to excess weekly. Like 10+ beers a day for twice a week or so when i went out. Black out drunk. Nowadays it is lost on me sadly. Not that i don't want to but my circumstances have changed. I sort of miss the oblivion but part of that was me being just masochistic and selfdestructive.

i drank to excess in the time of covid at aparty where there was known cases of beig soread from the last party there. i had drunk dudes on cocaine yelling in my face but then they gave me cocaine and said nice things to me

>>14798213
Maybe 2-3 times a year. I'm very lightweight, and so 5-6 drinks is all I really ever care to have on those occasions.

>>14798213
If I'm posting here, I'm at excess.

>>14804956
