That’s a good one!

Jim Halpert me, too!

To be fair, she said her mother also drinks at least one bottle of wine every night and fell drunk into the mirror and destroyed it. If you grow up with such a rolemodel that's not great either.

She's got more problems than drinking and she doesn't think they're problems, either. Listen to her "I live my life, I do what I want to do..that's what you do when you're a kid, you drink...you're a freshman, you're in college, you go out every night". Blah, blah. I hope her entitled/spoiled self gets some hard economic lessons, soon. It's pretty hard to party, wear your make-up, your "trendy" clothes, keep a roof over your head, when you can't get a job because you flunked out, don't have any work ethic and never learned any marketable skills because you think you can live off of other people with your "cutesy" attitude. Men will get tired of her, even if she gets sober, and stop her gravy train.

Land Lord,she’s not only in denial but she’s very stupid.

@v- r-m or your talking shited.

@v- r-m same u wot , wot yu saying they are def ded or yu tall out your ass.

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g6xlqrGky7HTaGg.html Hope is not how it works in real life: Alcohol is a legal and state-sponsored poison. Used as a means of crowd control. Toxic to the body in every way. There is not a single tissue that alcohol does not deleteriously affect. Highly addictive. Depressant. Hugely destructive to family and relationship life. Thousands killed in road accidents. Associated with violence. Advertised everywhere. Fooling everyone until the damage is done. Hope that enlightens you.

Yes, supposedly there to learn, yet there are no anti-drinking campaigns occurring on most campuses.

Explorer Mike Are/Were you a alcoholic or something deeply related to that?Because you talked like you went through some such hard times

Somehow against all odds, I managed to avoid alcoholism, but my life was surrounded by alcoholics in my family and among my close friends. I watched some drink themselves to death and I watched some recover. But those who recover have deep scars in their lives - not only personally for them, but also for the people around them. Alcoholism is an ugly thing. Alcohol is so destructive it is impossible to describe. If we are all to be honest, nearly everybody has at least one alcoholic in their lives. It is so pervasive in the world. I have had heroin addicts in my world and I have had alcoholics in my world. Alcohol is not better or cleaner or safer than heroin.

Bullshit...bullshit and more bullshit. Take away message kids: don't fucking drink because it turns your life into a big pile of steaming shit, but it is possible to get your life back after alcoholism. I would hate for an alcoholic reading this to get the wrong idea. It's the hardest thing you'll ever do, and the easiest thing to do is not to freaking drink in the first place, but if you're out there, and you're already an alcoholic...you can get your life back.

Tobie, you are dead wrong suggesting that getting sober fixes the past. A person can recover from addiction, but they cannot erase the bad things they did when they were an drunk/addict. Drunks/Addicts hurt other people. People might forgive (often they have to forgive for their own peace), but they don't forget. if you have a criminal record, it doesn't get erased when you are sober. If you killed someone by drunk driving, they don't come to life after you get sober. If you physically or verbally abuse your children when you are drunk, they don't heal mentally or physically because you get sober. If you have a bad work record when you were drunk, you don't get a "do-over" when you get sober. If you make a complete ass of yourself in front of other people, they don't say "oh, that was the drunk. She is sober now, so let's pretend it didn't happen". Drunk or sober, the things you do matter. You don't fix things by getting sober, you only get sober. That is the honest reality of alcoholism/addiction.

Eric, I am sorry to hear that you and your family and your friends had to experience alcoholism. You know the damage it does. Nobody has to tell you. The good thing is that your child did not have to go through it with you. Now, be prepared that somewhere down the road, somebody is probably going to tell your child about something bad that you did in your drinking days or tell them about your drinking. That is just the way it is. Can't help it. Don't let it weigh you down. Some people get their kicks out of doing that kind of thing. Just spend your life being the best you can be every day and don't dwell on the past. Learn from your mistakes, but don't dwell on them. You are smarter than before. You can live a better life now than you ever could have before.

Explorer Mike Goes for men as well. Drunks make shitty dad's.

You are very correct, Emma. Drunks make shitty fathers...and and shitty mothers, shitty uncles, aunts, grandparents, shitty children, and shitty friends, and shitty employees... Drunks make shitty everything

Sometimes, with girls like Rachel, it's not the booze that causes the behavior (that results in pregnancy), it's just who they are. They're like that without liquor. Liquor just gives them an excuse (i.e. "I didn't know I was that drunk...He should have known I was too drunk...) to be loose (trying to keep my remarks clean). They know they can blame it on the guy and get away with whatever they want to do. These type of females aren't worth it,

ha...i'd love to have been the other actor in her scenes

This doesn't work for everyone. The best way is the Sinclair method. Look it up.

Of all the people I have known who recovered from alcoholism, all of them made it through by AA. I think part of it is that there is an AA meeting nearly everywhere in the world - even in many countries overseas. AA gives folks hope. Everybody thinks their situation and their misery is unique. They go to a meeting and they find out that they are not alone and in the room is someone who's story is exactly the same as theirs

AA is for retards.

Neil Gonsalves I was thinking Jersey?

What part of drinking every weekend is "LOL"?

Explorer Mike every part lol now that I'm graduated I don't drink like that anymore I'll have a beer here and there but at the time it was fun 😂😂😂

Good to know you grew out of it, Joe. Keep an eye on it. Alcoholism can sneak up on anybody. A good rule of thumb is not to drink more than two beers on any day and not more than four beers per week. Sounds crazy to a lot of people, but... alcohol is not your friend.

Explorer Mike the last time I had a beer was like a month ago lol I've been so busy with work full time when I get home I go to bed lol

Very dangerous thinking Joe. I don't know if alcoholism is a real disease in the classic sense, but i do know it ruined my life. And it took decades before it really had me. Maybe for you it doesn't matter (who knows) but for some young kid being advised that it is all a joke ia not cool

Mega Rbase Hangovers feel demonic after you puke your ass off..haha

Wtf?

MegaRbase Seek psychiatric help

How can one be fearful and anxious in college? As a recent college grad theres a lot to be fearful and anxious about. Young people are expected to go to college. Expected to know what we want to do for the rest of our lives. Many of us can’t afford school and go into massive debt. We struggle to pay rent to live in shitty apartments or rental houses with other students. Many of us don’t have scholarships paying for everything. Many of us work a full time job on top of being a full time student. Many students don’t have help from “mommy and daddy” to pay for school. It is a rarity to see a student who doesn’t have to work and hustle every day. All this for what? To graduate and try to find a job in an unstable economy damaged by the decisions made by those before us? I wish I could say this wasn’t the norm. I can say however that every single person I went to college with had a full time job on top of being a full time student and still struggled to make ends meet. It’s not easy being a student in this day and age. Unfortunately many students self medicate with alcohol to try to cope with all the above. There is plenty to feel anxious and fearful about. Take this from a recent grad who knows what it is like.

@@asiacarr7991 Excellent response, I go to university in the UK and just took a year out to get my mind in order and I had a lot of stress and personal things happening. In a much better place going into my final year now but still fearful and anxious!

And honestly, adding to what the other comments say... As someone who already has extreme anxiety and sometimes feels the need to self medicate,,, it’s hard especially when financially dependent on someone else. (It’s obviously a blessing and I’m so grateful to have people to support me) but The guilt of being so anxious and feeling like you need to buy things to help you through the journey of colllege on top of the guilt that comes when you spend someone else’s money on these vices is really hard to deal with. I also thing it sometimes Makes it worse. It’s such a 1st world problem I know but feeels shitty regardless
