Every morning I wake up at about 6:00 and consume large amounts of alcohol. I don't know how this habit began but it doesn't seem to affect me negatively, it boost my confidence and makes the day much more interesting. Is this normal?
do you pour it on your breakfast cereal? thats a sure sign you have a problem if you do
Do you "need" to do it or do you just "want" to? How much do you drink later in the day? Drinking a small amount at the start of the day (like a single Buck's Fizz at breakfast can be nice as a treat on a special occasion), but the word "heavily" in the title of your story should concern you. Does it?
The title screams out I'm an alcoholic. If you drink heavily when you wake up and you do it everyday, you are an alcoholic. Your using alcohol to boost up your confidence and make the day seem more interesting. you should stop as soon as possible and try to find something else that's legal and healthy to find your day more interesting. Drinking is fun but your drinking heavily in the morning for no reason except to make your day seem more interesting and to boost up your confidence. Doesn't that sound odd and enable you as an alcoholic right off the bat? I'm sorry if this sounds rude but atleast I'm being honest.
Very normal if you are an alcoholic. When your life gets bad enough and you body gets sick enough maybe you will seek help.
It's not completely abnormal, people do it. When I lived alone I drank from the time I woke up til I went to bed. I drank at least a bottle a day... Now I rarely drink because I know it's bad for me. Pretty much the only perk is being able to drink boys under the table at parties. Haha
Lol do you really expect ppl to tell you you're normal? Maybe it doesnt affect you negatively, but what happens if you run out of alcohol and dont drink for a whole day?
Normal if you do it from time to time. I've drank in the morning before, it isn't any less healthy or anything like that. However, I would never drink before work or anything though. Drinking in the morning every now and then isn't so terrible. However, doing it all the time is basically textbook alcoholism. Life can get boring, but drinking in the morning on a regular basis will make it more miserable. That's kind of a strange habit to wake up early to get drunk. I find the fact that you use alcohol as a crutch to "boost confidence" a bit worrying. Maybe you should consider seeing a therapist or someone else who can help you with boosting confidence. In my experience alcohol makes you more impulsive and reckless than confident. I drink a good bit, but would not consider it a healthy way to boost confidence for a day's activities. Being drunk makes you prone to do stupid things so the stuff it gives you "confidence" with may really just be poor life decisions or even just plain idiotic. Also, you should consider switching to weed. For me, pot is a very morning-friendly drug. You can get a light buzz (or just get baked if you want) and it often does genuinely spice up a boring day. Just don't wake and bake before work. That doesn't always go well lol
... as my irish boyfriend says "you can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning!"
In all honesty though you probably have a drinking problem.
is there anything happening in your life that might have triggered you coping in this manner?
If it's having a negative impact on your life you might want to find some help. Talk to sombody, or if you're not into that look for a support group online that's annonymous?
i miss getting drunk in the mouring i used to do it heaps untill i broke my finger thats the only reason i stopped
Nah thats cool. Infact that reminds me i havent had my morning wine coolie
You sound bored. Try doing other things to make your day more interesting. In college I was set on I had to be drinking in order to have fun, I soon got out of that habit and my outlook on my life changed to a more positive direction.
