I don't understand this, did you guys have to quit because you couldn't control it, or did you just quit and chalk it up to "maturing"?

I could not control it..I was at a point where i would down a bottle of bacardi in under an hour and literally not be drunk at all, and i drank like this for so long that my white blood cell count was extremely low. Had i kept going the way I was, well...I would not be posting this.

Could not control it. It controlled me. When I drank I was a whole different human being. My complete opposite. A person I hated in the morning, or the next day if I drank into the morning. I've lost more than I'll ever see again in my life, and I mean more than money. Much more.

Lol, I love how this thread is turning out despite it's beginning. And I actually used audio as my "outlet" to distract me from liquor for awhile. Worked for 5 months. Then I stumbled recently, pretty badly. Glad I found the program.

Wat exactly defines a person as an alcoholic? Because most people I know drink excessively, as do most people in general

I slowly watched all I had worked for become meaningless. I graduated high school when I was 14 and went to college and started teaching an advanced mathematics class and really got into the college thing. I started partying all the time, I never slept, I wanted to experience everything. Alcohol was the limiting factor in everything I ever did. After I graduated college at 20(with 3 degrees)I opened a hotel shuttle service operating out of a strip club. I made More than enough money to supply all the alcohol and drugs I needed, then I sold the business and traveled the country recording stage acts and recording bands and watnot. Always drugs, always woman, alway a way to get into trouble.

I have experienced a life most dream of, but it haunts me everyday how little it meant to me. That's the reason I stopped. Because I finally wanted to. I actually wanted to.

Congrats to both of you. I look forward to being in your place some day.

Thanks! I hope you can say the same thing one day too. It's more than possible, if you really want it.

September 23rd will be 7 years

That's awesome! Every year I watch go by, makes me even happier than the last.
