I'm technically an alcoholic but maybe not anymore, okay to drink a few beers?

Not bad until this point:-

" I really want to have a few beers this mornin"

Well I work nights so it's different for a person with my schedule to have a few beers in the mornin than a person who usually sleeps at night, seems more reasonable to me. Morning is technically my night for day people who usually have a few beers on a friday or saturday night.

I would guess you're a cop, so it's ok.

You work nights at a convenience store amirite?

You'll want to be sharp of reflex when you get robbed. Don't do it.

If that. Go out and hit...a few miles.

Cringed so hard at "tokey"

As long as you keep your job it’s usually fine. I’d keep it to 3/day and try to limit it to weekends. If you break either rules, give it up for a month.

Look at how bad your life was when you were drinking heavily.

Is it worth risking that again?

Sometimes you don't know how good you have it.

Lmao 6 beers after work is heavy drinking.. YOU ARE STILL AN ALCOHOLIC

GO FOR A RUN INSTEAD

I don't know if you're serious, but it's almost guaranteed you will revert to your old your drinking patterns. You're an alcoholic rather than just someone who used to be dependent on alcoholic. Losing jobs over drinking shows you have control.

"No control"

1-2 beers with dinner is no big deal. Having "just one 6 pack" sound like you still have a problem.

How many did you have?

Yeah, that sounds like you still have a problem.

I haven't had a drink for over ten years after two decades of heavy drinking. As someone else pointed out, it's the 6 beers that's a giveaway. Even now, after all this time, I sometimes get the urge to have a cold beer or two. The thing is, when I am completely honest with myself and follow that thought along, it's not really one or two beers at all. After the second beer, there'd be a third, fourth, fifth etc.

Really when guys like us say "a beer or two", that's just an unconscious smokescreen to normalize the urge we have and make it seem like it's just the minor, relatively harmless indulgence the majority of people sometimes give in to. However, they never progress to a case or two, just because they can't control it, and there's the difference.

Half the oooeoooooe onion mommy well ahiiiiiify one too work drunk or hiiiiiiiigh sooo it's really n ooo big deal ll

no you moran

I'm technically an alcoholic but I make myself do things to "earn" a drink.

Anyways as long as you don't drink and drive, you're good.

Try having 1 beer, and then substitute the rest with carbonated water. I get it now why alcoholics drink carbonated water...
