do you have absolute morbidly hellish depression if u try to go a day or 2 without it? back when i was younger...i could go on a bender of up to a month or more daily....and id feel a little run down if i tried sobering up. but for the most part i was still able to be at least sociable enough....or at least not stricken with incredibly crippling anxiety, depression and paranoia. these days......when i try to take a lil break and just clean out my system i cant leave the house. if i do, i have a constant panic attack. so bad to the point that i feel like im going to be murdered, or my heart is just gona explode. its the worst. sometimes the only reason i do it is because im broke. and once i come up with the money....the walk to the store is horrifying. ill walk past people that i otherwise always hang out with and rage with that are used to me being very sociable...and when they come up to talk to me i cant make eye contact. im scared as hell just talking tryin to come up with converstaion. when i talk, my voice is all shaky. alot of times i just feel like i want to cry. in my chest, my face, stomache, head, everything. i just cant understand either. i mean i do, its withdrawl. but its amazing at how much it changed my personality. i feel like im being a huge prick just keeping to myself, but theres no way i can get around it. sometimes i just come out with it and tell people, sory man, i just realy need a fucking drink. ill have to check u later. then when i finaly score some, i cant take that walk back home or back out into public till i get a buzz on. i usualy go around the corner of the store and slam some behind a dumpster untill i get loose enough to show my face on the street. and at that point, i look back and almost laugh at my insecurities and anxiety. i get a lil buzz and im like, psht, fuk the world. where as i get trapped by people i see on the fly, when i get loose, i can flow so good and just be like, yo, ill hafta check u lata im on my way. but when im realy tryna get away from them, its like im hostage to them. i cant break a conversation for shit! im rambling...its just such an insane feeling. i cant stand it. it usualy takes like the third day of being sober and drinking mad water so as to clean my system out, that i get back to my old self. able to crack a smile and hold a conversation sober. i gather ive been experiencing this for some time, but i rarely stop drinking. so i dont experience it so much and it always seems newer and darker everytime. im sick of drinking. longest i went was last year....i stoped drinking from late august all the way into late october. its a lame excuse, but if i could find a seriously steady job, i think id be able to do it. its just not having shit to do all the time. the last longest job i had was about 4 months. i did realy good then. i drank, sometimes even every day, but just a couple beers after work. but this shit is getin old, and ive said it so many times. i just gota fukin remember how much hell i go through tryin to stop each time and just take it easy all the time. that or make sure i can keep up the hardcore drinking all the time. this past time i stopped it was cause i wanted to. but usualy its just cause i run out of money. and then i get sober again and wana go with that. fuk i know this is a ramble and uncomprehensive as fuk as my thoughts just race and i type as i think and dont take time out for format and catch alota heat for it, but, u dont hafta read it. so with that....just tryna get some feedback, but its whatever just the same. i know what i hafta/should do. alcohol sux. right now, i wont be able to drive again till january. been a year and 4 months or so, as i had an insurance lapse after i went out west for a while. when i came back home and tried to get everything taken care of, they told me i had to wait a year an a half almost. well, im 2 months away, and hella psyched to get back on the road, as im sure it will help me find a steady job, and also just bein able to take a ride down to the water, bring my dog to the beach, just drive around, etc will give me more to do. at least get out more. i walk around plenty but, sux when its cold even tho it dont bother me so much and i dress appropriately and chill in blizzards all the time. it also should deter me from drinking as i dont need any more dwi's. january couldnt come any sooner! rah, sorry for the rant. but im feelin better now! peace!
