Anonymous14I used to do drugs…well, I still do…but I *used* to, too! ………………………..Mitch Hedberg,RIP.
Little known but one of my favorites.
Alcohol is likely the single most destructive drug for society. I rarely drink myself, sometimes to excess, but not more than six or seven beers, and this only happens once or twice a year. Day to day I don’t drink at all, I doubt I average more than a beer a week in any given year. Weed and magic cookies and brownies? Yes please, the more the better.
My father is an alcoholic. Which is why I try hard not to drink too much. My grandfather used to drink heavily back in the day too according to my dad and would come home drunk and destroy property sometimes. So alcoholism runs in the family. I don’t mind a drink here and there, but I try hard not to let it control my life.
Anonymous6Alcohol free
Cigarette free
C~~~ freeIf I decided one day to no longer let c~~~s get in my way, why not give the other two the boot! GMOW has broken all these f~~~ing chains!
I’ve only ever been drunk once and the horrible hangover afterwards made me learn my lesson. I only touch beer and just drink to get a buzz. I like to smoke pot just to get high, but it also helps with my depression. I’d like to try hallucinogenics if I could get my hands on them. An 8-11 hour acid trip sounds like a good escape. I love cigars and I rarely dabble in cigarettes.

Crisp, it sounds like you may be normal, like one of those people who can go to the bar every night, drink maybe 3 glasses, and go home. “Real” booze hounds could not just have a few, maybe you feel that way, you’d know. Do you find yourself drinking more than 24 beers in any 24 hour period? You could be an “alcoholic” lol
Anyway, I’m glad to have survived it all. I got sober the hard way at 27 year old (5 years ago). I loved drinking! But now I just catch a buzz on coffee and copenhagen
And you’re right, drinking at home is an abyss many real alcoholics end up dying from. It’s actually a great way to hit bottom. Just rent an apartment alone, start drinking without restraint. Sooner or later you will either kill yourself, get admitted, land in jail or get sober….
I’m sober. Used the 12 steps and other methods.
No drugs, cigs or booze for me.
Functioning alcoholic here.
5-7 shots of whisky every night.
Sleep it off.
Wake up clear headed, energetic and very productive.
Repeat.It’s expensive and I do not recommend it.

I used to be straightedge and proud of it, now while I’ve never done any drugs and never will, never smoked, nothing, so I suppose in that sense I still am, I have drank alcohol once in, I wanna say a blue moon, but honestly it’s rarer than that. I definitely hate the taste of straight-up booze so I mostly have rum and coke or coolers. Closest I ever got to being drunk was getting a little buzzed.
I, Lelouch Vi Britannia, command you, all of you, to Go Your Own Way!!
Addicted to cigars.
I get drunk few times in a year: 2, 3, 4 times in a year – alcohol has never been an addiction or a threat for me, even if sometimes I even experimented black out in my 20 (and even sex when blacked out) I never run the danger to become addict: when I got drunk then I don’t drink for few months, simply I don’t want it anymore for few months.
I smoked marijuana last time sometimes towards the end of 2016, and it was a lot of time that I didn’t smoke.
I had a full check up recently: they said that I have the body of a 25 yo athlete.
I suspect it has to do with the monk lifestyle, I suspect it’s related with using the fleshlight each day while knowing that I’m having much more orgasms than what I could hope living with a woman.SUPREME LEADER KIM JONG-UN'S FASHION STYLIST - if you want a new look or if you're a very beautiful trans you can call me, phone number +85079255312 / mobile 01921421211. The worth of a man isn't the usefulness that women get from him. Avoiding living with a woman, a man isn't rejecting a lot of sex: he's rejecting sexual starvation. MGTOW IS TACKLING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE IN COMPLIANCE WITH CONVENTION OF ISTANBUL: http://www.coe.int/en/web/conventions/full-list/-/conventions/rms/090000168008482e --- Article 4, Section 4 "Special measures that are necessary to prevent and protect women from gender-based violence shall not be considered discrimination under the terms of this Convention". WHAT I LEARNT FROM A GENDER STUDIES CLASS IN LUND, SWEDEN: every time feminists accuses men of doing something, odds are likely either them or persons associated with them are doing the exact same thing but a lot worse. WHO I'M RIGHT NOW https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1okpAj7Fhw Basically my former life have been a conflict between this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yz_RQVkvke4 and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFIMeyTK-sU That's, more or less, all about me.
I was lucky. I never had the addiction DNA when it comes to alcohol or drugs. Now food, on the other hand, is my vice. I eat too damn much of the wrong stuff. Trying to get that turned around.
I don't hate women. I just feel better when they're not around.
Straight edge? no f~~~ that f~~~~~ s~~~. If you take pride or identify yourself as straight edge i take no association with you.
but I have been sober over 4 years I believe. I have had 2 duis in my past and I have been to jail a handful of times and been to rehab for 4 1/2 months when I was 17.
I do not get this actually? do you believe you have been sober for 4 years or do you believe you have a record?
I do not smoke cigarettes. I do not drink or do drugs.
I smoke cigarettes (specifically menthol), i occasionally drink liquor and do drugs when given.
You want to do it, that is up to you but doesn’t mean I wont give you s~~~ about it.
If i want to do drugs it is my body thereby being my choice. If you start some moralistic rant ill just tell you to shut the f~~~ up as i just don’t care.
When the s~~~ flings it is gonna be because someone trying to dictate to me what i should do with my own body instead of just keeping to themselves and doing what they want with theirs.
I get so annoyed at my gas station job having to sell cigarettes and alcohol.
How horrible that people want to buy cigarettes and alcohol for their own personal enjoyment and you agree to a job in which you have to sell it to customers above a certain age (you probably get off if you find a minor using a fake ID or being carded in general as you get to deny the sale and be moralistic).
I think it is best that MGTOW stay away from bars whether you drink or not but all do not agree.
The problem is that bars can be refuges for men depending on the situation (especially low down dives in which women don’t show up). It the closet thing to a mgtow group that you can in real life (as i said if it is a dive in which women don’t show the f~~~ up).
Girlfriend told me alcohol or her. I chose her.
Classic failing of the s~~~ test there.
Just an east coast asshole who likes to curse, If you get offended by words like fuck, cunt, shit, piss, bitch or any racial slurs then you just scroll down.

I am part of your clan. It is on or off for me. I am also a fast drinker. I routinely knock back 7 drinks within 90 minutes when I am at the bar. Mostly to make the “company” around me more bearable. I am constantly staring at the clock as I know when I need to get home so I can eat just enough food before I pass out and can still get up to function for work the next day.
I have my drinking routine figured out pretty well (not something I am proud of) so that I am not exactly hungover the next morning, but rather dead tired. The older I get the more I realize alcohol really does mess up the quality of your sleep. A LOT.
Booze is an insidious drug for certain. I am walking the razors edge much like yourself. It sure takes a lot of planning and energy. I wish I had more friends or healthy distractions, but decent people are hard to come by. Especially if you are single in your mid thirties. Everybody thinks you are a pedophile or something.
Best of luck to us all,
CrispPS: Straight Edge is cool. I may simply be too hypersensitive or hi-strung to live that way. Sounds good though!
It’s all fun and games until your liver and kidney stop processing your water properly. It builds up in your gut like a huge round beach ball. You have to go in and have it pumped once a week which gives you fevers and s~~~. You will die. The only remedy is to take medicine that makes you have to p~~~ every 30 mins for the rest of your life.
My best friend has that, he used to work for a beer company. He regrets drinking hard all those years.Anyway I’m sober, its a good way to be.

TO anonymous Yam
Apart from all you insane lashing out to justify your own addictions, this last part is especially bulls~~~.
Bars are NOTHING compared to this site and mgtow comradery in general. Equating mgtow.com to a dive bar where men show up to drain depressants down their throat is so far off. This site is on a whole new plane, not some redundant local watering hole where you try and forget your problems but only make things worse.
There are hundreds of years of sobriety and maturity on this site. Do not disrespect the wisdom from men twice your age who have been where you are and saw, lived, experienced a better path.
Why not show some humility towards those of us that conquered alcoholism. You come off as a bar fly 23 year old who leap frogs from disaster to disaster. Show some god damn respect.
You seriously just ranted about what you can do with your own body. Who here was telling you what you can and can’t do with cigs or alcohol. LOL You got all defensive for no reason, just showed up and lectured people who found sobriety, saying its f~~ s~~~…. jeez
You have to go in and have it pumped once a week which gives you fevers and s~~~. You will die. The only remedy is to take medicine that makes you have to p~~~ every 30 mins for the rest of your life.
Once that point comes it is the end of the line.

Life sucks all the drugs do is make it slightly better but even then i am not justifying my own addictions.

To which is why i specifically said the closet thing.

Wisdom only goes as far as the evidence supporting the argument. It does not matter of there are hundreds of years of so called sobriety (drug use in a responsible manner is not immature) if the evidence does not align with them or is different from the path i am taking.
Being sober might be good for your path but i do not need it in my mine but i am only referring to be being completely sober (aka straight edge the topic of this thread).
Why not show some humility towards those of us that conquered alcoholism. You come off as a bar fly 23 year old who leap frogs from disaster to disaster. Show some god damn respect.
I refer mostly to OP and his arguments in my post.
Who here was telling you what you can and can’t do with cigs or alcoho
Those in office in my state who seek to control it further by whatever means they can (Menthol cigarettes bill trying to ban them for example).
Or with the illegal drugs government bans and crackdowns on those who use them. In the end you have Puritan straight edge f~~s behind the movement to restrict us and tell us what we can and cannot do (those who are libertarian to drugs yet do not use them do not abide by terms like straight edge).

What is this physical/medical condition called?
I only ask, because I always hear about “dying from alcoholism” but no-one dies from “alcoholism”; they die from a by-product of it: i.e. liver disease, alcohol poisoning, etc.
Resident cynic.

I agree wth this and appreciate men’s HONEST response to an HONEST question about drinking.
Kudos for giving it brother!
Resident cynic.
Brothers on here who do drink and smoke, that is fine with me but I will give you s~~~ about it from time to time because I gave it up. You want to do it, that is up to you but doesn’t mean I wont give you s~~~ about it.
OneTrueMisFit –
I agree with you, drinking and smoking aren’t the best habits; I do however partake in them.
Would my life be better w/out them? Yes and no.
A lot of people quit drinking, then STILL make drinking the center of their lives (i.e. AA meetings where all they do is obsess about alcohol). And, not much changes in their lives, simply because they quit alcohol.
If I quit drinking, I would probably be more productive. More accurately – if I REDUCED my drinking, not quit entirely.
The premise of your post which I don’t agree with is that you want to give other people $hit about drinking.
Why?
Just because it was a demon/obsession for you, doesn’t mean it is for everyone. And please don’t take that personally.
You can see how others might be offended when people take this attitude. It’s akin to “my way or the highway”.
It doesn’t make much sense to tell others that just because YOU had a problematic relationship w/alcohol that NOONE ELSE can have any relationship with alcohol.
That doesn’t make much sense.
I like alcohol.
Men have been drinking it for thousands of years; and for good reason.
There’s nothing like a bottle of red vino at the end of my night.
It’s not the healthiest of things; but, what is in this world?
Resident cynic.

Why?You answered your own question.
It’s not the healthiest of things; but, what is in this world?
Why give women s~~~? Why give the laws that are geared towards women s~~~? Why give anything s~~~? Why stand for anything? Why stand against anything?
Also, does not each alcohol addiction start with one drink? We all started out as social drinkers.
I’m not against a drink here or there.
Also, the mentality of people on here. Why do you want to start s~~~ misfit? You ask these questions and dig up s~~~ to be started. Let it die. Go your own way.
Don't care
Anonymous11I’m watching a long term friend destroy himself with alcohol, and there is nothing I can do.
