Alcoholic? or typical college student?

I bought a half gallon of crown last night drank about a quarter of it with a friend and had a few beers too. Dont consider myself any alcoholic. Alcoholics are people that wake up at 9 in the mornin and drink. Not weekenders...

they say taht your an alcoholic, if u have a beer and feel the need to get plowed.
I'd suggest when u drink, drinkin thicker beers.....all those water down'd kind allow u to keep pushing them in, but drink a thicker beer....and see where u get.

I think I will try this next time and get Killians Irish red or Yuengling. Buy a 6 pack and be happy with where that puts me.

I am just now able to eat food today. I was in bed until around 3 b/c I was nauseous all morning/afternoon.

If it keps going liek that after college you have a problem, but while you're in college it's normal.

That's what i tell myself, although I worry if I've already done damage with the amount of drinking/smoking I've been doing since I got here in college. In high school I only got the chance to drink heavily like once a month and only some of those times I got drunk, but since I've ben here I've been doing it like every night basically, it's a little scary. Cuz Once I take one drink I don't want to have drank alcohol just to remain sober, so I don't stop till it's allgone or I've smoked some pot... which is also sad, Cuz when I smoke pot I don't remember peoples names and am generally a terrible conversationalist, which sucked cuz there were a lot of hot chikcs at the costume party i was at lastn ight...

when you can polish a whole half g of jager by yourself and still be coherent enough to order a pizza then you know you have a problem

When you can tolerate the licorice flavor of jager to drink it then you know you have a problem, thats one popular drink that I will never understand

Jager? What...are you still in high school?

Worst. Liquor. Ever.

Agreed. That shit is horrible. My stomach knots up at the smell of it...why the hell anyone would drink that Nazi sewage water is beyond my comprehension.

this is funny......being a weekend warrior is considered binge drinking, and chances are if u don't control yourself now...u will be drinking every day after work, on the weekends, then pretty soon in the mornings on the weekends, then to stop the shaking, in the mornings on weekdays....

u can ask my lil brother, right after i got off work on friday, i had atleast a 12pk of Coors light...if not a 30 bomb...usually put that down friday night....then sat. morning, i usually would be grabbin a 30bomb and crackin one by noon if not a beer, a sparks or rockstar 21. Being that i work for a beer company, i could get kegs on the low....i think between me and Joe, in 1 week we finished off a 1/2 barrel of Miller lite....after that...i decided enfuf was enuff.

I struggle with this and have found the best way to not get too drunk is to not drink at all. I love partying but for some reason when I start drinking I never stop.

I dont have a problem with drinking everyday or feeling like I need it, but I just can't seem to limit myself whatsoever.

Sounds like an alcoholic Speaking.

Sounds like an alcoholic reasoning.

You think that's bad? I have a buddy that drinks Third Reichs all the time. 1/3 each of Jag, Rumpleminz and Goldschlager. Ugh, hardcore. I do like each of those separately, but not all together.

I dunno. Still seems like once a year or so I'll get alcohol poisoning and almost go into shock.

My stomach does the same at the smell. I don't know how anyone could drink that much of that shit. I had a bad experience with jager bombs that had me hugging the toilet until the morning, haven't even thought about ever drinking it again.

Alcohol is tricky, most alcoholics don't even think they have a problem. Many people take it too far too often. I personally don't drink much at all just because I don't enjoy being drunk that much. A nice buzz can be fun, but straight up plastered isn't enjoyable at all for me.

I'm stayin' green.

Its just college. I mean shit I drink 4 out of 7 nights and I drink to get hammered. I realize once I get further in college towards junior and senior year I will have to let up and once Im an adult it wont be a problem. But Imma take advantage of this shit while I can.
