Alcohol...

Hellooo

You might be thinking this title is very strange and not normally something you see on a blog, especially one like mine but I started a blog for a reason....So I could get down my thoughts and feelings on topics, whether they be controversial or not, and not feel constricted to a certain word limit or audience, anyone can read a blog post so it's completely up to if you want to read this or not. Same goes for all of my posts.

So I'm to write today about something that has become a fundamental part in nearly everyone's life. Chances are at some point in your life you have or will come into contact with alcohol, whether it be friends family or yourself that it effects at some point I guarantee it will. Now let's just get this out there. I have no problem with drinking...you can drink whatever the hell you want (as long as it's safe of course) as far as I'm concerned at some point I know I'll be drunk so I'm not gonna rant to you about how drinking is bad and ooo bad this bad that. The issue I have is excessive drinking.

Once you get drunk you tend to find out what kind of drunk you are, for some people's benefit I will list some...

• the sleepy drunk
• the crying drunk
• the silly drunk
• the emotional drunk
• the angry drunk

there are others but most will fall into one of these categories. Now this isn't the person's fault necessarily as when your drunk you lose your inhibitions meaning you don't really know what you're doing or what the consequences would be. Sorry I'm lecturing you. The point I'm trying to make is if you know you're for example the angry drunk who knows they'll live to regret getting pissed why drink? I know for a fact I wold be a loud mouth, probably offensive angry drunk which is why I know my limit and when to stop as I think I don't want to wake up tomorrow and have someone hate me because I said they were this that and the next thing.

I would also like to make one other point... FRIENDSHIP IS NOT DEFINED BY DRINKING. If you have real friends you should be able to have as much with them drunk as when they're sober, if you get drunk with your 'friends' to be friends then what kind of relationship is that. <<< How many time do you want to say friends Jen?!

This post is for mainly my benefit, just so I can get out there my opinions on alcohol I feel for anyone suffering at the hands of alcohol abuse and if I cold give one piece of advice i would be this. More many you feel most at ease or relaxed or free when your drunk, it becomes your fuel... you think drink defines who you are, well I can tell you drunk you is the weak vulnerable person just like everyone else when they're drunk; everyone is susceptible to something, but I can tell you now sober you is twice as strong the drunk you will ever be.

Lots of love and stay safe
