Wasnt trying to be a dick but alcohol gets way too much blame in general.

Good luck.

Every time I've gone on tilt gambling its been because I was blackout drunk, lost a wager, and put a ridiculous amount chasing on someone else like Clemson.

Get your shit together man. For real.

This is what I don need to hear

Ehh, i think some would agree with you but you are right-you were going to get bad results with the other posters in this thread. Lots of people blame the drink too much, some not eough

This is sad and I feel for you but your first step is to quit blaming the alcohol.
The alcohol did not do shit.
It was you.
You gotta know where to point the blame before you can correct it.

Good luck.

Ummm what? Millions of people drink responsibly. Heroine is one of the most dangerous/addictive drugs on the planet. They aren't even in the same area code.



Are you saying alcohol isn't an addictive and dangerous drug? Alcohol unlike any other drug affects every organ in your body, it doesn't just kill brain cells but it affects your liver, pancreas, brain, heart, etc. Many cancers are because of alcohol consumption. How about the withdrawls from alcohol? They are just as bad as heroin. Ever heard of the shakes? Ever heard of wet brain?

It's a very, VERY dangerous drug. Ask the 12 million people in AA, the victims of drunk driving, spousal abuse and all the lost souls out there caused by alcohol..

Oh did I mention that alcohol is legal and available for purchase on basically every street corner?
Did I mention its socially acceptable?


While heroin is frowned upon, very illegal and hard to obtain for the average person..

"The British Medical Journal on 27th of July 2012 published an extensive study scaling the harm caused to ones self and to others due to substance use. The study looked at the 19 most commonly used drugs both legal and illicit. Heroin was ranked at number 1 while Alcohol sat in 4th place and cannabis came bottom being deemed least harmful in all 3 tables."

Is the legal and easily attainable factor included? Alcohol is very easy to obtain, heroin you need connections..

Could you buy a gram of heroin right now? i guarantee you could buy a case load of heavy alcohol right now.

Bet you could get your hands on some Bacardi 151.

If you have one glass of Bacardi 151, will you die?

If you use adulterated street heroin one time, is there a chance you could die?

Simple question.

I agree alcohol can be terrible for some people - absolutely life ruining in some cases - I just can't see it in the same light. I guess because I don't personally know anyone affected by alcoholism however I have seen the consequences of hard drugs first hand. It all comes down to having an addictive personality I think...drugs, food, drink, gambling, etc...all need professional help. Hope you get some relief BB you seem like a good dude.
