i.e. if the consequences for drinking aren't severe enough, he won't stop

Hes gonna call a black waitress a nigger and get kicked off lmao

from what I've heard at AA meetings cold turkey is the only way to go

i think if youre as balls deep as alec you can have seizures from withdrawal cant you?

well im not familiar with alec but yes

like he could go into shock or some shit

it's horrible

how much does he drink a day

no clue, pretty sure its a fuck ton though

If ur a heavy heavy drinker and you stop all at once you die

Idk hopefull he could wean himself off

what makes you think it's a fuck ton?

because i watched a movie with him while i was a liter in and he was more fucked up than i was

if he's bad enough he'll get a condition where his brain holds more alcohol then blood

my brother is an alky

he's 6'2 200 lbs and he would get absolutely belligerent from 2 deucers

most people don't get sober off alcohol until hitting rock bottom several times

if they continue hitting rock bottom, that's not rock bottom

kinda the point of rock bottom

I guess so

like if you end up in the hospital multiple times and keep doing it

your rock bottom is death

For some people that's the case

yea

it's sad

My parents put me in rehab for casual drug use and I saw some really fucked up people

this chat is making me not want to drink tonight 👀

i dont understand why it doesnt work the same for him

but tbh we need to either cure addiction or cull people with high tendency for addiction

dopamine blockers do wonders for heroin I think

there's a drug that removes that feeling of getting drunk and just gives you a hangover

Ive drank like 6 times in the past 3 years lmao

The problem with just blocking the feeling of getting high/drunk is these people don't want to deal with their emotional traumas

so they're prone to stop taking the blockers

Meditation / mindfulness / cognitive behavioural therapy

Ggez

my brother was on it

i can't remember what its called

he hasn't drank for a couple years now

smokes a lot of weed

but at least weed doesn't make him get into a fight with literally everyone
