How many people are walking into AA meetings saying they are addicted to Cannabis? Think before you speak

You mean NA.

Not many compared to the amount in for other substances.

Think before you speak.

How would you know the answer? You've never gone to a meeting. I have heard someone say they're addicted to weed. And as much as we kinda laugh at someone saying that, it's whatever makes your life unmanageable. So you support that person. You really are the biggest fuckwad on here. You think you have all the answers and when you're shut down constantly you ignore facts. YOU use drugs. Weed is a drug, test is a steroid. Fuck.off

Alcohol is poison.

Alcohol is poison.

What a revelation. Life is short. If you can be responsible then have a little fun.

Just went 49 days without alcohol, until a few minutes ago.

Personally, I'm tired of counting days etc....

That shit is stupid. Just don't drink everyday, and when you do, don't go overboard.

I'm a grown man, I refuse to be told that I can't have something. Makes me want it more.

Bourbon makes me happy

Do you take into consideration the calories from these drinks ?

No. My battle has always been to eat enough for muscle growth and not eat less in order to avoid being fat.

Agreed. Anytime you tell someone they can't do something they just want it more.

I had four liqueurs and a bottle of wine last night with a great friend of mine. We stayed at my place and just talked all night before finally going to bed around 5:30 a.m. Everything about it was great. The only downside is a fucking sore head this morning but that's more due to a lack of sleep. If it wasn't for headaches, I'd never experience any downsides with casual drinking. I like the social aspect of it and I like the taste. I never drink beer, though. I find it disgusting.

Yeah but the calories in booze are not the same as eating a chicken leg are they? Drunks always have a fat bloated goofy look, heavy Boozing gives them a lot of Estrogen. Not saying you´re a heavy boozer but drinking daily it add up...think long term.

The understanding of hormone variations as a consequence of alcohol consumption is fundamental to understand how muscle hypertrophy could get impaired. This review aims to provide an insight into current knowledge of the interactions between alcohol consumption and the related hormonal alterations that could alter muscle hypertrophy.

Hardly ever drink alcohol now. Before got sick had getting into the habit of having about half a litre of vodka on Saturday nights but that had only been going on a few month before that I just liked to go out and get smashed 3-4 times per year. I try to avoid going out regular as have a bit of problem when out of knowing where to stop and won’t come home till everywhere closed and can’t get another drink

For a few years it was thus Fri sat every weekend was just young and that’s what everyone my age did then pub and club scene hadn’t died yet, social media was non existent socialising at the pub was far better back then

Like you mate I can’t sleep after drinking now developed as got older.
I enjoy getting pissed with friends but honestly don’t care if I never have another drink again

As a brit in the NE of England I can second this

There were still pubs and indeed clubs up until around 2010. Since then we've seen pubs (real ones) either disappear or become gastropubs where food is their main business

Late licences have killed the club scene

It genuinely used to be better and this isn't rose tinted glasses speaking

A few ice cold Staropramen in the Sun can be sublime. Just those weak 3.5 % one, 3.5 can feel perfect foe my palate.. I had talks with several friends before the summer fegulaions to just take "a couple of beers?" meet up in the sunin the sun on some nice outside seating area. Didn't work out schedule wisr in any case. Schedules didn't meat.

Has never made me feel even the slightest bit good.  I've only ever been drunk once, when I was about 17.

It very consistently gives me a headache if I have too much (which is very little, like we're talking not even tipsy).  To the point where the largest amount of scotch I am willing to have is probably all of about 40ml.

I have often wondered if I might be allergic to it because a lot of people like this drug and I have not gotten a single shred out of virtue out of it, ever.

Other drugs that I have taken, I could at least understand what the attraction would be, alcohol.. never.

Damn you're a pro. Drinking until 5:30 in the morning? Only way I was doing that was if I was bumping nose beers, too. Nothing wrong with drinking responsibility. I envy you a little

Yeah, the lack of sleep can be a bastard, but around once a week I can do something like that and only ever feel really good. I couldn't drink daily, but finding time to have a few with the people in my life I care about genuinely just brings positives.

I used to do this all the time when I was younger. Me and my buddy would drink till the next morning shooting the shit jamming tunes etc… I do miss that but I don’t miss feeling like ass. Keep it up if you feel good and enjoy those times.
