Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
ok. im 16. and..i drink. on ocassion. bad? i know. why? i dont know. i have always been afraid of alcohol because of what my parents would tell me at a very young age. However, a friend of mine has parents who drink. one, a bit more than the other. and there is usually always alcohol around. One day when i was at her house and her parents werent home, she had me try a jello shooter..[[which was very good by the way...]] and i was hooked. i wasnt afraid anymore. Eventually we hooked ourselves, just us 2 up with a bottle of 80 proof rum. and. we drank it. in 2 weekends. Having school was the problem. Saterday night. after my parents would go to bed, we'd lock my door and start drinking. We'd usually start with chasers and eventually just start taking shots at a time. we finished about 1/3 of the bottle that night. and the next weekend, the same. only we finished the bottle.. it still amazes me, to this day that my parents didnt hear anything as to the vomiting that night..
there were a few other times we'd get ourselves bottles of whatever and drink..we do it controllably. we'd get ourselves completely fucked up for a night. and not drink again for a week or 2. Now, we cant find anything to get drunk off of. so we havent drank for 3 months. but..idk if i want to anymore. of all the stories i've heard..and alcoholism runs in my family...what can this hold for my future?

If only I had the strength when I was 16 to have made this posting I did not.
I played with alcohol like you at the same age, then gave it up, then went for it big style and found out the hard way I was an alcoholic.
Not being able to get, but craving, could show the underlying sign of an up and coming problem.
An alcoholic, can do 5 years in prison, the moment he gets out, he heads for the Pub and gets smashed, so just stopping is obviously not enough.
If your strong enough and brave enough, seek help now, before it becomes a major destructive part of your life.
The stuff you drink when you do drink is heavy, so it does show a sign of problems ahead
The best thing I can say right now, is stay aware, if you feel that what your doing is wrong, stop and get help, do this and you will have a much better life ahead of you.
Alcohol is a drug, that if it was made now, would be on the same level as heroin, and would be illegal.
Stay young stay happy, you don't need drink believe me
ANyway got to go as I am of to a meeting for drink now.
So I hope you find the help your looking for
