I don't know why I bother asking you guys for help when I need it.
Hopeless.
Absolutely fucking hopeless.

(29,582 posts)You know that's a remarkably insensitive thing to say to someone who struggles with issues like this?
Right?

(54,378 posts)My career with alcohol started and ended at age 7.
My dad gave some party and I saw all the grown-up drinking all this weird stuff. I asked what it was, and was allowed to sip whiskey, wine, sherry, you name it. I nearly puked and went back to my ginger ale.
I was told I was "too young," but when I was old enough, I'd like that stuff, too. Well, I'm still too young (at 62) because I still hate the taste of it all.
Give me some fresh cold pressed apple juice or apricot nectar, and I'm set.
When I had my cardiac near-miss, I was told my beef-eating career was over. I said, how am I supposed to survive that? But it has been ten years, and I really and truly have survived without red meat. I figure booze has to be the same thing, only with a little more in the way of addictiveness to overcome. But it CAN be overcome.
I DOES suck, though, no way around it. The pain does, however, lessen over time.

(14,624 posts)I'm very sorry, of course I had no idea. I apologize. This is a public website where most people post anonymously. I had no idea of you personal struggles.
You post some very cryptic messages, which I assumed were part of your cranky online persona. I have always assumed your posts were just part of your feisty persona in an attempt to be funny. I don't know anyone struggling with addiction, so if your posts include inside lingo that only someone dealing with addiction would get, I apologize for not catching that.
But I suspect that you realize that I had no way of knowing your personal situation. I hope it made you feel a little better to rail at me. Peace to you, and I hope you have a fantastic, wonderful, beautiful day. - Lisa

Wait Wut
(8,492 posts)Yeah. When you get thirsty, don't go INTO the refrigerator. Just open the door and the light will come back on.

Opops maybe you should find 2 somethings that will hold water. make sure you put the one with sand or dirt in it over the other.

(45,082 posts)But I don't imagine Pepsi would taste much different than piss filtered through dirt though.
