Depressed, Heart Broken and Turning to Alcohol

[LIP]

Ok, so as most of you should know, i much prefer a spliff and a few bong hits to getting drunk, but recently my girlfriend said it'd be better if we were friends. I took it pretty hard. Im slowly getting used to the idea of not talking dirty over the phone and not putting "i love you" at the end of Text msgs.

Only problem is im drinking alot more, every day i drink so much i cant stand up, i havnt been to work for a week, and im drinking more than a bottol of whiskey a day. Im still smoking me daily 1/4 but im fucked with the drinking. I think im becomming an alcoholic.

What should i do? Im in peices.

Oh dude!
Im so sorry to hear about this.

Your not stupid, so Im not going to go on about how alcohol isn't going to make things better, only worse....

Just try to keep yourself occupied, start going to the gym if possible...maybe take long walks....just find ways (hobbies) to keep you occupied and keep your mind off her. Try doing somthing you wouldn't normally do!

I dont know what else to say dude,
I wish you the best of luck!!

Take Care

Cheers man, i think i might start hiking agian, havnt done it in years.

I guess its just a cse of pulling myself together, only problem is its harder to do it then it is to say it.

Find something "deep" that you want to know about, learn about it, then create a final draft for others to read. That slows down your drinking.

Hello Lip

Trust me when I say that hitting the bottle will only compound and extenuate your depression. Actually, I guess that smoking dope during this time doesn't help, but hey, I did it lol

Relationship breakups suck. Mine did, and I've got kids too...I guess that my responsibility to them has stopped me from doing 'something silly'...but it comes close some days...

I wish you luck dude, relationships come and go...and bring the joy and heartache that we all 'suffer', but you must remain constant.

Try to look at this in a positive way (hard to do, I know), but thinking that it wasn't meant to be, and maybe 'the one' is still out there waiting for you to find her...

cmon lip
dont let a female
run your emotions
getting drunk helps
but after awhile it gets boring
hiking is the best thing ever
find a fine bitch to hike with
and problem solved

girls can damage guys in bad ways
be stronger and tougher than her

You gotta hit a low to want to change,it's seem you might be lucky enough to of hit it... Just put the bottle down and up the weed to a ½ a day...

The best advice is "occupy yur time" even if it means gluing Popsicle stix together...LOLz...

i know what you mean its really hard to not say i love you when she signs off my friend who used to have really strong feelings for me and i still love alot still calls me on the phone every once in a while and i find it so hard not to say i love you before she goes to sleep some times i wait till she falls asleep on the phone and say it to her then cause it feels right

i turned to pot and alcohol too they helped me alot in my time of need the alcohol not so much anymore though now when i drink sometimes i get as depressed as i was then and talk about wanting to die

yeah man exercise is the ticket. no point in becoming an alcoholic, it's just covering your emotions. you gotta deal with them and move on. exercise really helps take your mind off of anything. go to the gym, go on hikes, whatever it is you do. Peace

I'm sorry she broke up with you..but I believe that everything must happen for a reason. Be it good or bad. And turning to alcohol to solve your problems, dont you think that's proving you're pretty..WEAK?! I'm sure you're a lot stronger than this post makes you seem.. . maybe you should prove to yourself that you're better than that. I wish you the best
