As long as you didn't get drunk and try to set fire to her car or something, you're coming out ahead. We've had a lot of dumbass attempted arson by drunk idiots cases out here lately, one dude cooked his hands pretty good when he tried it.

Sincere condolences or whatever the proper term is, as your family life was a small island of redemption for me in the anonymous internet way we know each other.

Hope you keep seeing your kids and playing an important role in their lives.

alcohol withdrawals suck op i think the lack of sleep and the brain zaps are the worst part

Getting all E/N here but don't go down that road Moose. A few beers after work is one thing but drinking like that can get BAD. Don't let the stuff control you, whatever is making you drink will still be there in the morning. I was drinking to get drunk, not blackout but just enough to be really buzzed. Even now at 32 it loving murders me if I have more than 4-5 beers, especially w/o eating. I like being drunk, but I gotta cut that poo poo out because it's not getting me anywhere and the I don't want to be 45 waiting tables and divorced.


Edit: What are brain zaps ? I've had the alcohol induced insomnia after drinking 8-9 beers a night for three weeks then stopping. Melatonin and just suffering through the first night got over it quick. Never had the shakes (that I know of... im loving clumsy to begin with)

I'm ok, it was my decision but there are kids involved and all that stuff so its been hard. Difficult but necessary. Breakfast grease certainly helps a bit in the short term

Neither. I just had an epiphany one day and realised that it was a toxic relationship and had been for a while.

Yes. People stay in extremely unhealthy relationships for long periods of time thinking that things will get better. If only this happenes, or that happens it will all be good. I recognised that I haven't been happy for a long time and that I am not fostering the best environment for my children.

So I took the plunge and ended it. We didn't even have a massive fight like we often do, I just woke up it seems. But enough about my nonsense. Back to hangover cures

best cure for a hangover is learning how to speak portuguese at a proficient level before becoming homeless

then simply drink till you blackout, wander to a new locale, then wake up.


voila you now have so much poo poo to deal with the hang over is the least of your worries.

(i usually just drink a lot of cold carbonated water)

The gently caress are you doing drinking your depression away? You're no longer tied down, you're in the prime of your life, get on up on Tinder (or Grindr? I ain't judging) and get your dick wet. It'll distract you from the unnecessary depression and help you focus on what you really want to do with your life. Don't piss it away like some crying baby bitch staring into a bottle.
