I'm an alcoholic. I get insanely drunk to the point where

Are you just an alcoholic, or a general addict?
If you're the latter, like I am, then just find a different thing to abuse. Preferably one that generally has a positive outcome to it's abuse (at least in comparison). I used to slam about a fifth a day of liquor before I started messing around with hydros and have since stopped drinking entirely. I usually only pop about 20mg to get a decent high going so I'm actually doing my renal system a big favor.

If you're just an alcoholic, then you have to WANT to quit. Get a sponsor from AA, keep going to the meetings, go live in a dry county.

general addict. I've run the gamut with drugs, you name it I've tried it and did too much. Esp stimulants. I don't do that shit anymore though

In a similar boat, anon. I was 4 months sober before a relapse in April that's led to a continuous binge til now. AA is hit or miss, but I've taken a few nuggets of wisdom out of meetings. It's really hard for people of mild intelligence or ego to buy into the higher power/no control over alcohol gibberish. At the heart of it, regardless of your childhood, genetics, or anything like that, you're an addict and you're sick. It's a sickness that convinces you into staying sick. That's the part of you that still wants to do it. The social aspect is a big trigger in my relapses and sounds like yours too. I ain't got an answer for you. Honestly, kinda drunk. But really, the whole "hitting bottom" thing doesn't ring true. After hitting my bottom that included a night that could've easily landed me in jail, I still haven't learned and gotten into the same old habits. I'm sure you've probably heard all of this shit before, but man, you gotta stay constantly busy to stay sober. And it's not just a matter of finding and indulging hobbies. Gotta search for shit outta life. I dunno. Sorry anon.

Alcohol is a depressant and as such if you are depressed you'll be even more depressed even though you attempt to do outlandish things.

With that said, how are you drinking? Are you drinking by yourself and then going out to do these crazy things? Or are you in a social situation and just can't control the amount you drink and find yourself and your friends doing bad things?

If you are drinking with friends, perhaps you should not associate yourself with these people any longer. Or simply go do something else than drink.

>how are you drinking?
I slam a pint of vodka and then go do stuff, or sit at my computer and play CSGO. I don't have friends.

Thanks mate. I'll try to stay busy more, I think that's good advice. It'll help me forget how much I hate myself and maybe I'll even improve as a person and won't have to hate myself so much.

That's not what that means, you fucking moron.
It's a nervous system depressant, as in the opposite of a stimulant
As in it has absolutely nothing to do with "making you depressed"

Don't take opiates OP. Shit is worse than alcoholism.
