While it may not be the wisest course of action, if you choose to drink irresponsibly and lose some inhibitions which allows you to enjoy certain activities that you might otherwise be unable to partake in, you are exploring and learning.
If you drink irresponsibly, and still indulge neuroses and insecurities, then you are really just wasting your time and effort. Not to mention, as you did, possibly attaching the a-hole stigma to yourself.
Also, you will find that trying to impress others, while not being genuine, will usually not work. As long as you are not the pure incarnation of evil (and sometimes even then), there will be a group of people who will appreciate you for who you are, as long as you are being honest. If the people you are around cannot appreciate you, it's time to find another group.
Confidence cannot be found in a liquor bottle. False bravado, yes. Confidence is the result of being at peace with who you are. Once you have that, people will just naturally find you appealing.

Not standing up for him, because I really do not know him. But if he is anything like what he posts, he is a good guy that needs that sometimes. He is 20, and I know a lot of 20 year olds that do not have their **** together. I am 31 and I need to have those nights sometimes (not falling off a two story building), but just to let loose and have fun. I don't know about you, but I know of a lot of us here have probably done just the same or worse at that age.

But I agree, we do not want drunk posts here. Makes us all go HUH? and wonder wtf is going on, LOL!

IMO, this city has a lopsided number of positive thinkers, and where has it taken us?

If we had listened more to the doomsdayers 5-10 years ago, we might not be in the mess we are today.

LVD: I cheer you on!

Thanks

I guess I might as well leave the forum after reading these posts since I am nearly always drunk when I post.

Most of your posts we can understand! Just every onceand awhile you have some that make us say huh?

[PinkString]

Lvd, if you want to leave, leave. The door is right there, see? unlocked and wide open. Follow the light...

I agree with BB, sometimes I can't figure out what you post LVD, and figure it was while you were drinking.
I can't figure out how you can even form sentences let alone type while plastered. Especially when half the time you don't remember doing it. Computers should come with a breathalyzer attached and if it's above the legal limit, your computer will not boot up until you are a little less intoxicated.

The real truth is that people cannot relate to people who are struggling unless they are currently struggling themselves. I know Davie is struggling. I am too but for different reasons. Most of us have some sort of vice to try to cope with it. I am drunk again, but I hate it as my vice is just not working anymore. I will just finish this with a quote:

I can no longer indulge in alcohol, but even at 51 I need one of those nights every often and miss being able to let go.
However, that recent post was a little unsettling.

I am not saying not to do it. But don't post stuff that is just so messed up you can not even understand what they are saying. And I am far from a Debbie Do Gooder. I just like to actually understand what people are posting. LVD even said himself that he could not understand Davies post. That is what I am talking about, not about the content, but being readable.

Believe me I know where you guys are coming from. Just because we do not post all of our struggles, does not mean we are not right there with you. I do drink a lot also, I got worse after the death of my first daughter and my mother.

Some of us just choose not to be an open book, and not go back and forth on who has it the worse. I give Davie a lot of credit, and like I said before sometimes we just need to have those times to let loose. But I think we were all saying the same thing WTF happened and was he ok. There are a lot of us who are pulling for him.
