She who must be obeyed and my son took the pledge after his 21st birthday bash and have not touched a drop since.Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
Personally I've been very lucky. I've never had a problem with alcohol as I could never drink more than a couple of halves without feeling giddy and being sick.Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
I learnt young that ...If I drink I'm sick, I don't go from getting merry and having a good time either. One moment I'm fine the next I'm being sick and my heads pounding. Now I'll have a glass of White Wine if I'm out for a meal with friends....but that's it.Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
I learnt when in my teens that I can't drink much alcohol without feeling ill or falling sleep.Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
There are far worse things one can do besides having a few drinks, people have been drinking since Adam was a boy, the rules are simple, if it makes you sick, aggressive, or troublesome in any way, pack it up now, if you are in control of it at all times, don't drive, don't lose work time because of it, and can stop when you should, then go ahead and enjoy it. You are providing local employment and contributing greatly to the National purse who shouldn't mind paying for treatment from the billions they collect in drink levies, they ought to expect some collateral damage with such a huge moneyspinner as the drinks industry. If everybody drank sensibly there would be no problems, pubs are closing by the day over here because of the smoking ban, which has not saved one single life, (it actually caused some deaths), creating more unemployment, now it's time to start telling us all that drink is killing us, my father drank in moderation all his life, he was 94 when he died of the dreaded hospital bug.Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
- Should the NHS pick up the bill for treating alcohol related disease?Re: Alcohol Adiction/Dependency
Every time an advert for alcohol came on television my husband would say 'oh that reminds me' and he would leave me again with my three young children and go to the pub. He would return drunk and often turn violent towards me and my eldest son.
