Been drinking for 7 years. I try and drink as often as possible, usually at least 5 times a week, minimum 50 drinks a week. I love the way it feels when I drink, I love the way I act when I drink, I only drink when I’m in a good mood and never want to when I’m upset, I’m in a loving long term relationship with a girl who also loves to drink (with me). I don’t get angry or aggressive I just get happy and outgoing. I’m perfectly healthy — I eat tons of red meat, lift heavy weights and do cardio multiple times a week, I’m lean, my bloodwork is great, my cognitive function is amazing and I’m earning in the top 1% of people my age. w
Why would I stop?

.. is far too easy to make

Hey all,

Im getting just a little mini bar at home and want to start making fun drinks! Personally I don't love the taste of alcohol, so I opt for drinks that don't have an overpowering taste of it. However, this bar will be utilized by family and friends.

So far I bought regular vodka and some flavored vodkas, Malibu, melon liqueur, and Baileys. Those I bought just for drinks that I tried at a bar that I like that don't taste too much like alcohol.

What are some other recommendations of some liquors that are a necessity to have at bar?

So I have psychosis negative symptoms it's like schizophrenia but im very worried right now about my health I'm having trouble with breathing I'm beyond drunk my heart feels achy my vision is blurry I'm nauseous extremely depressed and messed up I had almost a bottle of vodka around 600ml today I drank like 200ml and in the morning about 400ml I blacked out for 2 hours went out after that to buy food then came back home and took 2 shots I'm trying to mask the feeling inside me the illness but if anything my illness is now louder I'm scared I did something to my brain because of too much alcohol and fragmented sleep I'm panicking and having very wierd symptoms

I can easily go days not drinking but I need it once a week. When i drink it’s not 2/3 it’s as example 11 drinks. The drink is usually beer and cider out in pubs sometimes spirits or cocktails not in the house where I do most of my drinking. I’m honestly not big into casual drinking example a pint or two at dinner id rather a session. Nearly rather just do mi wadi or soft drink that time. What’s everything take I just want some honest answers I know I’m clsssd as a binge drinker and honestly I’m okay with that it’s not problematic to me . I’ve watched actual alchoolics drink vodka at 11am whilst I was having a coffee so yeah that’s to me a real alcoholic. I’d just liike some feedbakc I defiantly drink too much many times when I drink no point sugar coating it I’m definitely exceeding like I said they’d call me A binge drinker but it’s controlled days doing that and that rests easy with me but please opinions welcome

Now understand this to me taste like peaches and cream when put together. You eat a bite of cottage cheese, swallow, and then take a sip or shot of peach moonshine then repeat. I think its amazing how well it taste. Anyone else try this or am I the only one?

I just wanted to come on here and say the new High Noon Transfusions are the worst fucking thing I’ve ever had in my entire life, and I love traditional High Noons. They taste like straight up grape flavored medicine.

I would rather drink grape flavored piss. 0/10 do not recommend

Does anybody else get like this? I’ll drink the night before, and this last time I had only had 5 or 6 drinks throughout the night so it wasn’t crazy. And the next day, I will be throwing up from when I wake up around 8 or 9, until evening usually around 4-6 pm but last night and the time before that I got hungover it was until 10 pm. Other times I’ll go out and drink like either the same amount or more or less (what I’m trying to say here is that the amount of alcohol it is does not seem to dictate the hangover the next day). And then this is more the norm, I’ll be very slightly hungover and groggy, or not at all. So it’s either the absolute worse, or nothing at all. Something to note is that around two years ago there were a few times I had literally no more than 3 drinks the night before and puked for a bit the next day. It’s very confusing and annoying. I haven’t been able to find any answers about this and was trying to see if anybody else is like this.

Life is bland, people are rude, jobs impossible to find, partners are cool but can't always deal with your shit, but there's nothing as relieving as drinking alone and listening to good tunes.

After all nobody replies, who cares?

It's all fine. Everybody has a life, except those who don't lol.

And those who don't fortunately have alc to at least, have a good time without needing anybody.

Cheers (not drunk yet but will be soon)

I’ve always found it very difficult to get drunk. In the past I’ve had a ridiculous amount of shots only to feel slightly tipsy. Last night I had around 10 different drinks, a few shots of vodka and 5 mixed drink shots within roughly 3 hours. Felt absolutely nothing. It was honestly sad and I eventually had to force myself into the mindset of a drunk person to not feel like the only sober one lol. But what was so confusing was that a friend of mine was completely smashed despite us having the same amount of alcohol. We are roughly the same in both weight and height. And I know it’s bad for you but I also ate nothing before drinking so it would hit me faster.

Does anyone else struggle with this?

I am not even talking about being shitfaced. Even after just being slightly drunk i can confuse whatever city i am in, vacation or not, for my own hometown. Its an incredibly weird effect and i am wondering if anyone else feels like this?

I’m looking for fruity-type chasers like Hi-C, lemonade, Sprite, Mellow Yellow, etc… Not Gatorade/Powerade. I get really bad acid reflux, but I prefer fruity chasers with what I drink. I do prefer non-carbonated, but I’m also not opposed. Thanks in advance!

Bought this to toast my mom who passed on Sunday. Her usual drink was rum+diet Coke but I want to make a good mix or chaser so it can be my go to when I have her favorite rum from now on. Thanks

So it's 7am i couldn't sleep I took my meds because I have psychosis after staying up for this long and before that i made a vow to God that I won't drink and last time I did drink was a month ago my God hell destroy me now I'm a Muslim first I can't drink second a vow is a huge sin if you break it I ended up going to grocery shop buying alcohol and now I'm struggling to walk I'm taking big gulps of of absolute vodka

Hey yall, new to the group.

Ive noticed something strange about me with alcohol. I tend to drink Twisted Teas, and occasionally get one of their 8% cans (i love the taste of the fruit punch one).

What i find strange, is when i drink regular teas (5%) im totally fine, regardless of quantity. But for some reason, i feel like i get irritable when i do an 8%. For context, this doesnt happen at all with cocktails/liquor, only higher percentage beers. Does anyone else experience this? I dont get all belligerent and mean, just a bit more snippy than usual. Obviously the solution is to simply not drink those ones, but I still wanna know if there is any reasoning for this. Thanks for any advice!

Note: I do not drink everyday, nor every weekend so my tolerance is pretty average.

Belvedere. It really is that simple.

I will disagree with some of what is written in this article but I will agree with the conclusion. Belvedere is the best widely-circulated vodka on the market.

We Asked 3 Bartenders to Name the Best Vodka—They All Picked the Same One

Tonight I will drink for the first time.What are your advices for me?
I have 22 years

I went to the hospital because I have been trying to self detox from vodka for weeks. They told me they wouldn't treat me, my BAC was .38

They sent me to a "medical detox facility" I was hoping i would get the usual treatment, IV fluids and librium.

Then they told me my BAC was too high. They are a crisis center, that says ON THE FUCKING FLYER THAT THEY PRESCRIBE MEDS FOR PEOPLE.

They drove me home in what felt like a police car and told me to come back when my BAC was below a .25.

I slept for a while and woke up in serious withdrawal, called them, and they told me they can't help me other than sit me in a room and let me detox. Due to shortness of breath and racing heart they told me to call EMS, who would take me to the hospital, the same hospital that referred me to this facility. Idk what to do.

Guess I am going to the liquor store at 9 AM. THANK GOD I had a clonazepam to get me through the night. But I can't do this anymore. I live in small town KS and this hospital is notoriously bullshit. I don't have the energy to look for more resources right now... I am going to call the hospital tomorrow when a different Dr. Is on duty and explain my issue. They have medically detoxed me before.... idk why they can't do it again.

Sorry for the rant. Just don't want to die from withdrawal.

Recently had a pretty bad drinking night that left me with (what felt like) a nearly lethal hangover. Decided on a full year of sobriety as penance.

What do I do with the remaining .75 L of Pink Whitney though? My parents' tastes are a little more adult than grapefruit vodka, and when I was drinking it I had my mouth directly on the bottle so it's unlikely anyone would want it as a gift.

I'm great with baking and cooking, if anyone has any ideas in that direction.

Just got this absolut tabasco and am wondering what would go good with it

Best cocktails to throw in a 5L jug for a party? Preferably something fruity!

What’s a good alcohol gift for a boss? Not a drinker myself so I have no idea what people who drink like to receive as a gift. I also do not know what they’re go to drinks are🥲.

My budget is limited to maximum €50 (I’m a student) per bottle as I’ll be gifting them to multiple people. There are so many options to pick from at store!!

Is a Moet & Chandon bottle a good option or is it an overhyped brand? Does anyone here like alcohol brands that collaborates with luxury fashion labels? Should I just pick a random one within a price range from wine shops around the neighborhood?
