Poll: Have you drank your problems away?

[dragonslayer32]

I hit the bottle pretty hard when a friend of mine died about 6 months ago. Apart from that I just drink at social events.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

My problems are never big and I never drink a lot. But the amount I drink lets me become social and forget my problems till I wake up. I usually wake up with another problem though. I call vicious cycle on that.

 

[AWAR]

It's a weird situation for me, I actually drink only because I don't have any problems at all.

 

[xXGeckoXx]

Every weekend. Weeks are hard shit.

 

[DustyDrB]

Yeah, I have. Then had a horrible hangover and an even more horrible "I'm a loser for being an emo" feeling. Plus, it's expensive for me because I drink craft beer. Craft beer is meant to be enjoyed not drowned in. Never have done that again.

God, I hate hangovers.

 

[helldragonX]

I wish I could at times, but I just don't have that kind of personality.

 

[hurfdurp]

I haven't, it's the main reason I don't drink at all.

 

[Beryl77]

I do drink but only on weekends when I'm going out with friends but I never drink to escape my problems. In fact, I never had the feeling I could walk away from my problems when I was drunk. I don't know why it works with other people but being drunk never let me feel like I don't have problems.

 

[IckleMissMayhem]

Not successfully. I just woke up the next day, still feeling crap, with a hangover that'd slay an adamantoise (that's the biggest "animal" I could think of just now!)

 

[Commissar Sae]

Alchohol has the nasty side effect of paralysing me for several hours if I abuse it. And while my hospital visits have generally been good, I'd rather not spend time there.

So no.

 

[Timmehexas]

I don't drink. But watching my sisters fall over never gets old, so I can't say I hate when people get drunk.

 

[RanD00M]

I don't drink alcohol, so no. I just deal with my problems. LIKE A REAL MAN WOULD!

 

[Mikeyfell]

only if you count remembering how to use a doorknob a problem

 

[Arachon]

Nope, sometimes I've felt like doing it, but the feeling tends to pass. I only drink because I like the taste of good beer anyway, don't like getting drunk.

 

[Elephant Walker19]

No I get by,fine on hatred alone.

 

[DMonkey]

Totally. It is cheaper then therapy.

 

[Pariah87]

I'm now only a social drinker but there was a time when I'd drink a bottle of vodka or a case of beer a night just to numb things out. Stupid I know, I just felt like I'd thrown everything away on something which hadn't worked out, so spending a couple of months drunk virtually everynight really did help. After a while I just stopped caring.

I wasn't a nice person to be around then to be fair, especially when sober because then the helplessness came back.

Now I just drink when I'm out or I might have a couple of beers at home on a Saturday night simply because I enjoy them.

 

[Dango]

Nope, but I'm too young to drink anyways. To be fair though, even if I am under the drinking age, lots of people in my grade still do drink and get drunk. I still don't plan to drink once I become old enough, though.

 

[rokkolpo]

No, but i have to admit it works like a charm.

whenever i'm drunk i'm just so damn happy.
i wish i could be drunk all the time.
(if only it wasn't so bad for you)
