How many friends do you have?

Maybe not an alcoholic now that I think about it. I’m not certain but doesn’t an alcoholic drink a lot ,every day. You stretched it to go one week without it right? So try stretching it to 8 days. Then progressively further.

 

There were times I didnt drink for over a month but since June, I started drinking so often.

Recently I drank twice a week.

I got out of control many times when I drank.

 

Once I have unstoppable wish of drinking, I can't help it.

I can go for like 2 weeks without it as well but eventually I would drink again and could get myself in trouble drinking to the point that I got blackout drunk.

 

Wanna go to a titty bar this weekend?

 

That is just crazy, and you know this.

 

You do seem like a fiercely loyal person. Do you have a lot of "enemies"? I have to say that there are people I don't particularly like, but I don't think that there are many folks who want to do me harm. Or at least I hope not.

 

I plan not to drink. Otherwise, somebody will break my bones.

 

How can I have the willpower not to drink?

 

Just one day at a time. You know I will support you.

 

It's usually considered a big help if your friends don't drink. I would spend more time with them if possible

 

I got very close to being fired from the apartment as well in which I live.

It is called drinking disorders, isn't it?

 

English is your foreign language, right?

You speak it perfect as a non-native english speaker.

 

Not really. It only looks like that in writing. Seeing the previous words of stuff i respond to written out helps a lot. Verbally i am less fluent than i 'sound' (come across) on here

 

I can speak all I write myself. The same. And fluently. However I may pronounce some words wrongly but they will be understandable.

My problem is listening. I have concentration problem. I lose myself in thoughts when one speaks to the majority in which I am one person.

Also listening from tape sucks for me. I will lose myself in thoughts.

 

It happens in english since it is a foreign language to me but I can speak all I write fluently. I have no problem with speaking. I speak fluently.

 

As for reading long paragraphs, I am even bad at it in my native language let alone english.

I lose myself in thoughts. Concentration problem. I go thinking.

 

Why is no longer edit button available on this forum?

By reading, I mean like reading books. I am even bad at understanding in my native language for I have this focusing problem. You know what I mean.

 

Uhm... Same here. I'm fluent in my own language. We were talking about english. Standard lines come out fluently in english too. But when I get into a subject and have to use specific words I rely a bit on the posts of my convo partners. If I have to come up with less used words by myself I become far less fluent.

 

I meant english.

I speak english fluently. I am not good at listening, though since I cant focus, I go thinking.

Speaking is the easiest part for me. Easier than all other things.

 

It is only when I am drunk that I lose my ability of speaking english fluently. When I am sober, no problem. I speak it fluently.

If I am drunk, then it will get difficult to speak english.
