Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I drink maybe twice a month or so, but when I do, I usually drink so much that I don't remember some of the evenings happenings. I put myself in dangerous situations sometimes. UUUUGGGHHHH, I don't want to drink that much, but I get three drinks r so in me and all inhibitons out the window. What do I need to do, Help. Quit drinking all together!
My husband is the same way in that he tends to over drink. Unlike me he plans to overdrink...and is OK with it, But i'm not!
Should I quit drinking all together....Can I do it? HELP!

I think if you know that you loose your ability to think rationally about how much you drink then yes, best to quit. Im sure you can do it as you say you dont drink all that often.

Hi, This is exactly how i was, i took the 20 questions and revealed that i do have a problem, maybe look at that then make a decision from there? good luck x

it's hard with a husband that is so OK with it! That may be what needs to be done! Not easy! Even if I don't drink that often.

I agree, maybe take the 20 questions on the AA website otherwise there is another way with moderation management. That may help you to control the way that you drink.

I quit drinking years ago and all of those bad things you just talked about went away so yeah, I would quit.

what is Moderation Management? If it is what it sounds like , I don't think I can do that.

Its suppose to be an alternative to quitting altogether. They have a pretty detailed website, maybe you should check it out. I think you have to be really dedicated and strong to do it but i think its mainly for alcoholics who drink every day so maybe it might help you. I know after a few drinks I go for more so it didnt help me much. But its worth checking out.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
