Person 1: Drinks nearly every night. Drinks heavily on the weekend, has a few beers during the weeknights, but never drinks and drives and never acts any differently than he does when sober
Person 2: Only drinks about three nights a week. Spends the rest of the week eating healthy and working out. When he does drink, he gets smashed and acts like an arrogant jackass, picking on people, starting shit with people at the bar, and just generally acting like a complete douche. Also drives drunk and rarely remembers it. Doesn't remember anything the next morning. Who would you consider has more of an alcohol problem? Remember in terms of total alcohol consumed, #1 drinks far more alcohol in a given week than #2 --------------------   |

They both have an alchohol problem, it's just at varying levels of severity.
I used to be person #2. And did I ever think I had a problem? Not a chance in hell. Do I drink anymore? Rarley, and looking back on it, I realize .... yes, I did have a problem. I might have only drank 3 nights a week but I drank excessivley every single night. Just beacuse you work out doens't mean you don't have a problem. Honestly, getting a DUI was probably the best thing that ever happened to me as it finally (sort of) woke my stupid ass up .... I am lucky I'm alive basically. Bottom line is, if you drink to get drunk regularly you have an alchohol problem ... -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!

QUOTE (Dogmeat @ Jul 30 2008, 11:09 AM)  Honestly, getting a DUI was probably the best thing that ever happened to me as it finally (sort of) woke my stupid ass up .... That's funny. I don't advocate driving drunk, but if you absolutely must have to, take every precaution not to get thrown in jail. Don't drive 100 on the toll road. Don't swerve all over the place. Don't run stop signs. Basically don't do anything retarded to draw attention to yourself. Person 2 has one DWI. A few months back he wrapped his suburban around a tree (ended up with a new Tahoe because he lied to his dad and the cops and filed a police report the next afternoon). And he still drives drunk, and drives really stupid and reckless. I guess some people never learn, and won't ever until it's too late And yes I know both scenarios are drinking problems, I didn't word it well. I was trying to figure out which one people thought was worse -------------------- |
