You should quit worrying about my drinking.



Ex-drinkers are just as bad as ex-smokers, and the damn born-agains also...

Ya, ya...  Save the sermon for someone that is in need.



I thought you'd know me well enough by now...  I really don't listen to anyone.  Never have, and never will!  Hell on wheels, and will die just the same!

If alcoholism is a disease, why is it socially acceptable to mock it?

I can't think of any way to tell a joke about someone suffering from cancer that would not be in bad taste. But, I'm not that creative though.

Alcoholism is NOT a "disease"...they just classify it as one , its easier to make excuses than it is to actually admit it....alcoholism IS a choice.



Anyone who drinks chooses to go to a liquor, beer and wine store or bar and purchase their booze...they are asking for it.



People dont ask for ask for Cancer...they dont go circling the block asking people of they have any cancer they can spare....they dont go to clinics asking for cancer.



And if one gets cancer from drinking its his own damn fault.



Cancer can kill you, you dont have a choice....with alcohol you CAN choose to stop and have a better life...it wont kill you.  It costs nothing to go to AA or even help your fuckin self....but with cancer, ypu gotta fork out $$$$ to get well and its a chance you wont even survive it....families go bankrupt over this and end up homeless.

Sadess story I ever read was a womans husband got cancer..they had 2 children, good jobs, a house...they sold their home to pay for the cancer treatments...the wife couldnt work anymore cause she needed to take care of her husband..he ended up dying and leaving his wife and 2 kids with no money and living in a car.



So yeah, alcohol os not a disease, its a choice.

Alcoholism is an addiction. Now, are addictions diseases...IMHO (and I could be wrong) but no...they are not diseases.



But that is not to say that all addictions are within the control of the individual. Studies of addiction show that some people are either genetically, physically or emotionally more predisposed toward becoming an addict and once addicted, have a harder time getting clean. This is why rates of addiction recovery are so low.



I think that much of the push to classify addiction as a disease is economic. The business of addiction treatment and  recovery is costly and classifying it as a medical condition engages funding that wouldn't otherwise be available.

You have good reason to throw shit(no pun intended) right back at him. And I know he can be a goof when he drinks.



But, I 've heard alcoholism is in fact a disease. Again, I'm no expert.

There are movements out there that want to classify homosexuality as disease....gun violence as a disease,....being unable to shut your cell phone off as a disease.....it's all about money and it's all bullshit.



At best alcoholism, like any other addiction has it roots in mental illness. Unfortunately the term "mental illness" has become a catch all for every social disorder and phobia under the sun.

Alcohol is potentially the worst substance to "come down on" for some...



Heroin junkies shoot because they like the high, and don't want the discomfort of "coming down"...



That in itself is not life threatening in the least.



Alcohol withdrawl can kill...  And Doctors don't even know how to handle it.  I had to visit 10 different Doctors, before I could even get a small amount of Diazepam years ago.  They don't know, they think I'm lying, and they just simply aren't trained to know.



Yet, we spend millions on fucking junkies that choose to shoot up, and happen to die.

Bullshit.....all of it.



People who die of alcohol detox do so because they are so far gone that when their bodies go into the shock of detox, their livers fail or they suffer a coronary event. That happens very rarely.



As for doctors who don't know how to deal with treatment for alcoholism, that may be true in hillbilly heaven where you live but that is not the case everywhere else. If you want to get help, it's readily available....you just aren't ready yet. Hopefully when you are ready, it won't  be too late.



Unitil then I guess you are free to continue to use unadulterated bullshit to justify your self destruction. :nea:

Quote from: "Renee"
Quote from: "Angry White Male"Alcohol is potentially the worst substance to "come down on" for some...



Heroin junkies shoot because they like the high, and don't want the discomfort of "coming down"...



That in itself is not life threatening in the least.



Alcohol withdrawl can kill...  And Doctors don't even know how to handle it.  I had to visit 10 different Doctors, before I could even get a small amount of Diazepam years ago.  They don't know, they think I'm lying, and they just simply aren't trained to know.



Yet, we spend millions on fucking junkies that choose to shoot up, and happen to die.


Bullshit.....all of it.

it is all excuses.  Its all laziness.  No desire to help oneself and make sacrifices to live a healthier lifestyle.

Alcoholism is a state of mind.

Mel is full of self loathing.



He is trying to kill himself in the easiest way he knows. Every time he descends into alcohol induced stupour, he hopes he doesn't wake up.



His own destruction is his only salvation in his mind.



But his problem is that his urge to annihilate himself can't quite overcome his cowardice. A quick death is within his reach, but pulling the trigger takes commitment. If Mel has shown us anything of his character, it is that he cannot commit to anything.
