Think about your own health first. There are plenty of fish in the sea.Yeah, I'll be giving up the bar for at least a month except if a friend invites me (which is rare)---and I imagine once it gets colder I'll be heading there far less often anyway since I walk. In addition to getting rid of alcohol in my house. I'll save some money too.
I just hope I have enough self-control. Especially as the girl I met last night (and the first night this happened we had a drink) is a heavy drinker herself, so if that turns into a relationship that's probably a bad trigger.
You have to drink way more than that to get painful withdrawal. The dependance is way more psychological in this case..Uhh, cut back gradually.
I think alcohol withdrawal is pretty fucking horrible.
Also I did go for a physical a bit after that incident with the bedwetting when I wasn't drinking and I was all good, so it doesn't seem I have an internal issue---then at least.

Sounds like me.Not really. At home I usually just have a beer or two at the end of a work week.
But I go solo to the bar and then hope people talk to me---sometimes like last night it works, but if I don't drink enough, well, I'm shy. So the first couple hours is usually me just drinking by myself quietly until I muster up enough courage to approach someone, then it goes good usually.
So, yeah, I guess psychologically drinking = friends.That's pretty much how it's always been for me. Come to think of it, I don't really ever hang out with friends doing sober stuff. I mean I do a lot of activities while sober, just alone.

Well, thankfully I don't feel as if drinking has overtaken my enjoyment of life---I work a 40-hour job, I enjoy playing games and watching television shows, so I'm not that deep into alcoholism yet. I think for the most part I have control when on my own, it's only when I go out that I get pressured into drinking---and part of it is drinking as a cover for my shyness to loosen up.
Cut back from six beers a night once a week?Uhh, cut back gradually.

You say you're smart enough to avoid being taken advantage of, but two weeks ago you offered to suck a guys dick when he exposed himself to you and told you he was going to fuck you over the bar.
I don't want to victim blame here

I don't want to victim blame here, but between that thread and this one, I do not think you have things under control anywhere near the level you think you do.

You got it reversed there, I honestly found him attractive enough to consider it but quickly changed my mind once he got aggressive. I really don't think I was in the blame for that.
It's a thing that happens to people. I once had to stop a college roommate from pissing his PowerBook.
I didn't blame you in that thread, and I'm not blaming you here.
What I'm saying is that from an outside perspective a pattern of behavior is emerging that is not healthy and could see you end up in serious trouble.
And I say this as a HEAVY drinker.

Ah, no offense taken---just wanted to clear up the order of events.
But you're right in that it was related because I had been drinking alone (though not particularly heavy that night thankfully) and was easily manipulated by somebody taking an interest in me.
Hence my first point - from what you've said you do seem like someone who can be manipulated based on your shyness and lack of self confidence, drinking too much to counter that when (it appears to me) that you can't take care of yourself in all situations could lead you into serious trouble.

There's nothing wrong with having a drink when alone. If it's a repeat pattern of getting drunk when alone, that is an indicator, but having a beer when you're alone isn't abnormal or an indication of alcoholism. I'll often have a few beers while playing videogames if I have the day off the next day.
I drink with GAF and cross my fingers everyone else is also sufficiently buzzed, or else it would be sorta sadNothing wrong with drinking alone when drinking in moderation.
Why is this so devastating to you in a psychological sense, OP? It's not barf or shit or semen... just pee. Did you have some weird pee experience growing up that you have PeeTSD from?
Like any alcoholic, he's going to deny he's one.OP when you're an alcoholic as you have seemed to indicate to us through your current and previous posting history, these things tend to happen.
the weird thing is the liquid doesn't really have that smell and it's perfectly clear
...
once more the liquid is clear and odorless
luckily it seems I got rid of the smell and it didn't stain the carpet
You're just not drinking enough.I guess I'm doing it "wrong," or something.
I'm almost 33, and in the 11+ years I have been drinking I never once had a blackout experience, or had a urge to pee in random spots.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say you're drunk and urinating in random places.
That's called marking your territory OP.This time my television set display was wet, and thankfully while none of my electronics got soaked it ruined my ARMS and Splatoon cases.
Op, has this ever happened on a night you *didn't* drink? Because if that's the case, I'd see a doctor. If not, then maybe you need AA.
Hmmm, it's worth noting that I'm currently house training a puppy, but from the sounds of it OP, you might be marking your territory. Were there any existing pee stains in your place from the previous owners? Try rewarding yourself next time you potty in the toilet and the problem should fix itself sometime in the next 4-6 months.
