ewerk 26192 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Are you a fanny? Yes. Is it an issue? Yes. Is it so serious that it may cost you your job and family? Probably not. Am I going to continue answering my own questions in this increasingly annoying fashion? Absolutely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34190 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Adiós bringing the real to the thread. Gloom and Renton are just a pair of ponces. If you can comfortably go weeks without a drink you're not even close to being an alcoholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it plain quite early on that you had a problem? Did you find you were in denial for long or did you always know you had a problem? What is life on the wagon like? I never thought I had an issue with booze until quite recently. It hasn’t been a case of blacking out on a weekly basis, mainly because I don’t tend to go out that often. I’ll never get close to that state when I’m out with the wifey or other groups of friends. It’s more of a pub mentality when I’m out on my own. Feel like I have the opportunity to regress into my 20s. I’m trying to put it down as a textbook midlife crisis - trying to get as much partying out of my system while I’m still (almost) young enough to get away with it. I’ve always enjoyed drinking but I’ve probably had half a dozen nights since the turn of the year where I feel like I lost control, which was never really the case in the past. I thinking removing myself from those types of nights in the short term might be a good starting point. Have you considered that you might be Teen Wolf? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wagon isn't that bad tbh. I've avoided venturing out to the pub so far (kind of a pain in Ireland) but I won't do what I did last time and sit watching my friends getting gradually less intelligent and uninteresting while they gain confidence of the opposite, all the while craving a drink so I can relax. I'm toying with the idea of a maintenance dose of molly for nights out because what could go wrong with that? As much as we rip the piss, you should never feel like a fanny for addressing an issue like this, you fanny. Every time i see your avatar i'm reminded that you are an alcoholic I never would have thought you had a drink problem reading most of your posts, i just thought you were a witty bloke with a good sense of humour i hope you stay dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
