Somewhere in the middle.
I enjoy a few cans on a night. Not every single night, but probably about 4 nights a week. With the occasional big drink day on odd weeks.

Will this cause me any problems?

I probably wont bother tonight, because Ive thought about it now and ill feel guilty lol.

Anyone drink most nights?

Before you know it you will turn into a alcoholic, 3-4 beers a night is way over the top. Would you say you are addicted?

I wouldnt say addicted. Because I can choose not to. But i do sometimes feel I drink a little bit too much.

This week Ive been thinking about it, and although I do enjoy a drink while i relax on a night. I dont really like the fact i do it.
 
Its not difficult to drink 4 cans though. I normally go to bed at 12/1am.. and i would drink my cans from about 8pm.

So 4 cans over 4-5hrs is just a slow pace. I dont chug them down.

I guess its unnatural to drink so often though
 
My mates wifes brother supposedly sits on his PC all day and night and drinks 8 cans and a bottle of win EVERY night.

Hes about 30. I think its defo something that he needs to get ontop of otherwise I reckon something adverse is gonna happen to him!

i must admit i drink a 4 pack pretty much everynight without fail. i can easily go without if i haven't got the money for it, but if i've got the pennies then that's what i'll spend it on. :p

We should make a mini boozing community, where we all quit our regular drinking for a month or two. Posting an update each night saying if we kept T total! :D

of course. :D



a month? :eek: i could easily do a week but a month is pushing it. :p

Lol

I think someone should make a Table / Calendar where we add our names, And our daily intake.

Then tally it up at the end of the month :D

It would rock if someone could do this. It would give me the motivation i need to keep off my mild trend of regular booze!!
 
Im definately gonna try a month off it totally. I did a month off a year or two ago and I admit i did feel better for it.

Im trying to save my pennies for a mountain bike so hopefully if i cut out the beer my money will pile up quicker too.
:)
 
I probably drink more if im depressed. So i dont wanna count how much ive wasted. because it will backfire on me. And make me go buy some cans to drown my sorrows lol.

Now stop the advice and make me a Anti Booze Calendar! hahaha :D

Guys we should forge an alliance :)

I know it might seem like a stupid idea, but I come on this forum every night. So I might make a Tee Total Thread. Where we can put a post in each night as a routine.

Kinda like a mini competition. Obviously people would have to be honest for it to work.

Tell me if its crap idea. Could maybe make a big thread that includes people wanting to quit other vices like smoking or gambling too. If we all have it in our minds we would be more likely to have a shot at stopping :)

Hedge, I'm in

after this weekend though, it's a triple 25th birthday (3 friend's birthdays)

Okay, No one could ever survive a birthday night out of that calibre, so you Ill let you off this time! ;)

My thread making skills are pretty crap.

Hopefully theres a clever boozer/smoker here who could construct an **Ocuk Quitters** thread, where we can post our Vice, and post our progress on quitting. An excel style spreadsheet with Names and tables for different choices would be great but I dont know if its possible to make something like that which everyone can input on.

Its asking a lot of someone to come up with an effective thread. So if no one can help my poor lack of geeky skills, Ill have a shot at making a decent thread this afternoon :) im still half asleep at the mo

I'd like to but I'm not sure I'd last anywhere near a week let alone a month atm. Just moved into student flats and there's loadsa parties etc and I want to make friends and if I'm out my will power not to drink is usually gone within a few minutes.

Yeah I imagine i would be doomed in that situation. Thank god im not under that kinda pressure lol :)

I iz hard cuz i canz drink LOADS !!! ....hic

wow just wow. Who gives a flying **** If you drink lots you are most likely going to end up a alchy and have all sorts of problems when you get older.
George Best is a great example of what it can do to you. I dont see why people expose themselves to that kind of harm.
I have the odd drink here and there. But drinking daily and a huge outting at the weekend is insane. Not to mention think about the amount of money you could save if you didnt drink O_O

I dont think you really got the point of the thread. I wasnt bragging about it. I was asking for a bit of input because i dont actually like the fact that i drink too much. I dont really get why you chose to take an attitude like you did.

its a habit like lots of things. Im not on the extreme end of the scale necking bottles of vodka all day. but im at the point where i want to stop doing it. So thats a good thing
