Hi all. I was wondering if anyone has any experience with kicking a particularly long term drug habit and how, if any, alcohol has played a part in your life after dependence?  Were you able to drink alcohol sociably and not have any problems? Did drinking alcohol result in you going back to your old habit or helped creating a new one? I’m really interested to hear other people’s experience. 

I myself had a nightmare, 13ish year H3roin and M3thadon3 addiction which I, very thankfully managed to come out the other side of 8 years ago. It hasn’t been without its struggles and many ups and downs. 

Would love to hear if anyone has else has similar experience and if alcohol has been a positive or negative in your life after drug addiction. 

 
I know  a couple of people who continued to use alcohol one or two times per week after beating daily use of nasal stim drugs.  But -they feelings as so different perhaps that's why thankfully my friends didn't get a new addiction to the alcohol.  But - alcohol is so very visible and something that can't really be done discretely, so maybe that's a blessing (it can't fit in a pocket, and it smells so much). 

 
Thank you for your reply 😊 Was generally quite interested in hearing people’s thoughts/experiences on this subject. Certainly alcohol use/abuse is much more socially acceptable. At least here in the uk. Than many other substances. 

Seems that alcohol can prove very problematic to individuals that have had previous issues with other substances. Alcohol seems to be a very problematic drug in general. 

 
Totally not. You get from the frying pan in the fire. Many smart drugs out there now to help.

I do drugs but NEVER alcohol. Once an recovering alcoholic the whole society will try to get you to drink again. 

Very different from C or Benzo which are NOT on every restaurant menu.

When he drives to the basket he usually gets fouled but the refs barely call it. They aren't falling for Shai's foulbaiting either. I hope Pelicans hire Rondo as head coach.
  2. Z @ zdaBa: @raizen banana base a known scam, I continue to get invites from randos to this day
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: @drdrizzy13 same bro it sucks for that series that Luka is out bc I think lakers could’ve made it a competitive one at least…my knicks are looking good but OG is hurt with a hammy now will have to see how that effects him cause they can’t win the championship with him hobbled he’s too important… not sure if anyone is gonna be able to beat okc regardless but we shall see

  13. D @ drdrizzy13: Same here man. Wish Luka was healthy to at least make the la vs okc somewhat watchable. But the other games are gonna be good.
  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: What’s up good ppl hope everyone is feeling good and getting by, enjoying the nba/nhl playoffs and start of the baseball season… ✌️
  15. D @ drdrizzy13: @biggiecheese Hey bro I don't think those types of questions are allowed in the shoutbox. I think you just have to look around or make a post about it in the right forum.

  17. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @AnnaSofia - Your name came up right away. I checked settings and couldn’t see any that seemed like they’d affect SB. Good to see you too!
  18. IndigoVault @ IndigoVault: Hey people, my privacy settings are totally whacked I am hiding from my mother 🧑 in law but please forgive me, just wanted to drop in and say hello, and thank you
  19. A @ AnnaSofia: @WTF7218 your name didn’t pop up as I started to type it in SB. Maybe it has something to do with privacy settings like some people don’t accept DMs and whatever else is in the privacy settings. There’s nothing related to SB in there but maybe if you check certain settings it carries over to SB? Who knows, but good to see you :)
