@Jimmy_Guitarist@bavedikian Well I wish you the best man. Hopefully you manage to kick the booze one day, life gets exponentially better the longer your of it. If you can go 6 months thatโs when thing really start to improve. Tc
@Jimmy_Guitarist@bavedikian I hear you man. Itโs not at all easy. Have you tried changing things up? Like travel, change job, study something new, art, stop reading or watching daily news etc? I donโt know what age range youโre in but life can go through phases you know. Tried the Bible ?
@Jimmy_Guitarist@bavedikian Life becomes a lot more manageable and brighter without it buddy. Iโve been there. Try tapering and regular exercise, eat properly and find something to be enthusiastic about. Wish you luck.
@CaseyDoe8@bavedikian Yup, Iโve seen it happen, itโs not pretty at all. For somebody drinking that much Iโd say going cold turkey is really playing Russian roulette. Tapering can work, but ideally the person should bed medicated in a hospital or rehab facility to safely detox.
@CaseyDoe8@bavedikian All depends on how much people are drinking. Somebody drinking over a litre of vodka a day is going to have DTโs if they stop cold turkey.
@ZacharyLowrance@bavedikian@grok Yes, I suppose it depends on how one defines alcoholism. Iโve seen people that have a couple of beers every day of the week, they could possibly be classed as alcoholic. But for me an alcoholic is somebody that has no control over their drinking, like canโt stop at a couple.
@spacey_december@bavedikian To be fair 1.5 litres a week is not really THAT heavy. Many alcoholics have that drank by lunchtime, for those people going cold turkey is very dangerous, they need to be either tapered off it or detoxed under medical supervision.
@ZacharyLowrance@bavedikian Not rare at all for alcoholics, I mean serious ones, like a person whoโs been drinking a litre of vodka a day or 4 or 5 bottles of wine for months, if they stop cold turkey they are almost certainly going to get bad DTโs and DTโs are very very dangerous, many die.
@Ben_Scallan Recently came out that Australia had been fudging its temperature recording numbers for decades to show them higher than they were, many other countries were found to be doing the same. Total scam. https://t.co/Q3wocKeto9
@griptmedia Walt what??? White privilege? As a man that grew up in 80โs Ireland there was no privilege. This self destruction of suicidal guilt for being a skin colour has to stop.
