The conversation above is all too common in recovery situations - somebody finds something that works for them and it becomes the way, the truth, and the light, and all other paths are false. People get defensive because any disagreement with their method of recovery is perceived as an attack on it, and by extension an attack on themselves. I'm not really going to weigh in one way or another on marijuana use, and just want to congratulate you on getting a full week out from drinking.

If you're honestly drinking to self medicate it's way easier to treat the underlying problems and then quit drinking. I finally found an antidepressant that is doing its job and since then I haven't felt that pressure to get drunk in order to feel any kind of relaxation in the evening. I didn't even really have to try to quit drinking, and I haven't had more than a small glass of wine in the past two or three months. Just the thought of getting drunk again seems pretty miserable.

Yeah but be careful because several of the antidepressant drugs they prescribe can gently caress you up if you drink on them.

edit:^^^^ I'm on an antidepressant soon to be two, one mood stabilizers, one anti-anxiety, and one antipsychotic. What I'm doing is very dumb. I've been working on the underlying problems weekly with a therapist and psychiatrist for a few years. I do drink to self medicate, but it's stupid because the drinking probably counteracts all of the meds I'm on, so I want to continue drinking because they aren't doing anything. Try to follow my logic here guys (there isn't any). Well at least I'm self aware enough to know I'm a loving moron. That's a good start. And thanks CaptainSarcastic. The first few days were bad. Now I feel better but am a bit off the wall emotionally.... well more than your standard bipolar person is. I know I shouldn't use the weed as a crutch and I'm already starting to scale that back. As in, not smoke as much as I drink thinking that I'll get more and more hosed up. But rather having a few hits instead of a few bowls. These aren't excuses or anything, I'm laying it all out right here and I'm aware of it. Babby steps. Pennywise the Frown fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Mar 8, 2017 |

I've drank on SSRIs, NDRIs, atypical antidepressants, antipsycotics and stimulants. The only one that really made much of a difference was Effexor, but your mileage may vary.

I know exactly how you feel because I was in the same place. If I hadn't found something that finally worked well for me I'd still be drinking. Even knowing that alcohol was only making things worse in the long run wasn't really a big enough motivator to make me face being totally miserable.

AA is garbage on a par with Homeopathy. It's a rubbish cult that hasn't changed since 1939. Find an evidence based treatment that has actual science behind it. Best of luck.

Everybody nowadays, believes in scores of assumptions for which there is good evidence, but no perfect visual proof. And does not science demonstrate that visual proof is the weakest proof? It is being constantly revealed, as mankind studies the material world, that outward appearances are not inward reality at all. To illustrate: The prosaic steel girder is a mass of electrons whirling around each other at incredible speed. These tiny bodies are governed by precise laws, and these laws hold true throughout the material world. Science tells us so. We have no reason to doubt it. When, however, the perfectly logical assumption is suggested that underneath the material world, and life as we see it, there is an All Powerful, Guiding, Creative Intelligence, right there our perverse streak comes to the surface and we laboriously set out to convince ourselves it isn't so. We read wordy books and indulge in windy arguments, thinking we believe this universe needs no God to explain it. Were our contentions true, it would follow that life originated out of nothing, means nothing, and proceeds nowhere. Instead of regarding ourselves as intelligent agents, spearheads of God's ever advancing Creation, we agnostics and atheists chose to believe that our human intelligence was the last word, the alpha and the omega, the beginning and end of all. Rather vain of us, wasn't it?

TheSpamalope posted:Maybe try having a single shed of self control idk Men and women drink essentially because they like the effect produced by alcohol. The sensation is so elusive that, while they admit it is injurious, they cannot after a time differentiate the true from the false. To them, their alcoholic life seems the only normal one. They are restless, irritable and discontented, unless they can again experience the sense of ease and comfort which comes at once by taking a few drinks - drinks which they see others taking with impunity. After they have succumbed to the desire again, as so many do, and the phenomenon of craving develops, they pass through the well-known stages of a spree, emerging remorseful, with a firm resolution not to drink again. This is repeated over and over, and unless this person can experience an entire psychic change there is very little hope of his recovery.
