  1. I turned 21 a few weeks ago and I just have a quick question. I have a few friends who are telling me I should probally lay off of the booze for a while cause I've been drinking pretty heavily, like I said though I just turned 21. I've probally been drinking for a good 3 months straight and I don't think there is anything wrong with that. But like I said some of my friends are freakin on me and Im just wondering what your guy's thoughts were on this?

    P.S. I do come from a family of acholics so I think thats why some of my friends are freakin, but like I said I don't see a big deal with it.
     
  2. well its understandable u wanna go out cuz ur 21 now, but 3 straight months is a lil rediculous, take it from me i work at a bar, u sound like all those bums who come there hahaha

    did u drink heavily before?
     
  3. Oh man I don't wanna be bum... lol

    I did before I started smokin pot. Once I started smoking pot I stopped drinking for like 8 months. But then I got busted with weed and couldn't smoke cause of my drug tests and started drinking again, that was about 3 months ago.

    Dam leo lol :mad:
     
  4. I don't think it's that bad at all, I mean you're young and you just turned 21. Now that it's the summertime and I'm still in college I'm drinking/grilling/going to pools most afternoons and going to the bars or keggers every night with friends and I don't see a problem with it..the summer is the time to party and live it up. I mean just this past monday night my friend held a three kegger and almost 100 people showed up. Just have fun and don't get arrested.
     
  5. 21st birthday and quite sometime after, blanket pardon
     
  6. try stopping and you'll see whats up
     
  7. ^ Probably the best way to find out.
     
  8. I guess I better get my hands on a big bag of some dank weed then lol. :smoke:
     
  9. Yeah, I have struggled with alcohol as well, insomnia is a big one for me. I sure smoked a lot though, so getting a big bag might not be a bad idea lol.

    Also (in my own experience), I've found that keeping track of how many drinks you've had in one day (standard 12oz beer, 4oz wine, 1.5oz shot) by writing it down somewhere you can see, like on your arm, you start to realize your average number. For me, I just wrote it down out of curiosity for a while, then slowly started limiting myself to one drink less every week/2weeks.

    This is just me though, not sure if this works for anyone else.
     
  10. i keep it simple i just dont drink only a bit on occasion
     
  11. As long as you're not drinking all day or feeling as if you need it, you're good. Even if you do get drunk every night, IMO it's not a bad way to live.

  12. Best advice of this thread, this is your answer. Quoting for truth! :cool:
     
  13. i turn 21 on monday but i've been drinking for YEARS....just another fuckin day to me.
     
  14. i had my first drink on about 3 weeks today. about 3 oz. of vanilla schnapps. it was pretty gross actually.
