Alcohol-do you or dont you

I used to be terrified of alcohol because I was always afraid of becoming dependent on it to help me loosen up... I don't want to be an alcoholic.

But recently, I got invited to a friend of a friend's place and I had two beers, which was the first time I've ever drank (outside of having a sip of someone else's drink just to try). It ended up making me more quiet, which I didn't know was possible. It also made me sleepy and uncoordinated and slightly irritable.

So, I still mostly stay away from alcohol.

i dont drink at all.. the one time i did i think people thought it would make me all loud and talkative.. it didnt.. i was quieter and felt real sick. never again. also, i realise i could probably get used to it if i drank it enough but i have no desire to and i wouldnt want to reply on alcohol for any reason either, whether it be to relax or impress people.

I hardly drink at all. One reason is that my husband is a recovered alcoholic, and the other is that I get very depressed the day after.
 
Right now I'm drinking a very cold liqueur while posting on the Internet, and it feels good. Alcohol isn't a big deal whenever becomes an addition, like my Internet addition, for instance.

First post, btw. Hello there.

I have the next two days off so tonight I'm very much going to do alcohol. I haven't been properly drunk in a while and tonight calls for inebriation.
 
I hear you whatkatiedid. I used to be a very heavy drinker. Extremely heavy. I would go out and party with my friends ever since I was like 14 or so, on a very consistent basis. But ever since about a year or so ago I have drastically cut back on my consumption, not all the way, just mostly. But I think I might have alcoholic tendencies :( because over this holiday break I'm pretty much back on the bandwagon. I blame New Years, and Christmas parties... and beer. haha. Oh well so is life...

I drank quite heavily on New Years Eve for the sake of drinking. Everybody else does, so I thought that I would.

I drink rarely and have a very low tolerance to alcohol.

I spent most of the night and early hours of New Years Day throwing up.

Yeah, I'm never drinking again. I am definately not 18 anymore.

I'm almost 18 and I have never even touched alcohol. I just think it's a waste of money and causes too many problems.

I don't drink alcohol. I've only ordered a drink in a restaurant one...A fruitini and it was awful. But, I drank it to see what effect it would have on me. I couldn't be bothered getting another one 'cause it tasted so bad.

I can definitely see myself drinking in the future, though...To be more comfortable in social situations.

After a little childhood incident with alcohol I sure as hell am never going anywhere near that stuff again. Tastes horrible to me anyway. I have to admit though, the smell of red wine is one of my favorite scents in the world.

Not really in to it. I don't like the taste, or the way it makes me feel. Alcohol just doesn't agree with my body. Every once in a while I get in the mood and get f'd up.

I love getting wasted. I can be the most social person of all time with a 6pack buried in my stomach within 2 hours. No, not really, but I definitely can let loose. Like, enough to dance if I happen to be at a dance club. Still wouldn't ask a girl to dance or anything though, ever.

I haven't had a drink in about 8 years. That was back when I had something resembling a social life. A few mates and I went out to a bar or club on the weekends, and had a few beers. I hated the taste of beer, but it definetely calmed my nerves. However, it didn't make me any more confident or sociable. Actually, it seemed to have more of a negative effect on my personality, making me feel more depressed, bitter, and angry. I guess alchohol has a way of amplifying your emotions, making all the bottled up misery bubble over.

After spending a few hours at some bar/club, we usually left went home without company. Occasionally, a few of the other guys hooked up with some girls. Needless to say, I never did.

Ever since I've been socially isolated, during the last 8 years, I haven't had a single drop of alchohol. I never acquired a taste for it. But maybe I should try to have a drink soon. It definetly made me feel a little more relaxed, and calmed my nerves a bit. It's easy to imagine why people become alchoholics.
