stop binge drinking

Went to a party last night and drank way more than I should have. I ended up throwing up and passing out. I was so embarassed this morning to hear the stories and I’m disappointed in myself. I thought I was doing well…pacing my drinks…but everything just caught up with me at one point and then I was too drunk to refuse drinks. I barely remember anything from last night and I felt so sick today. I’m thinking of giving up drinking altogether now. I don’t want to be known as an uncontrolable drunk and I think ppl are starting to think that now. I feel like not only did I let myself down, I also let my friends down too. I don’t want them to have to take care of me all the time. I feel so shitty right now :(

So I’m going camping with a few friends and they’e all excited to drink and get drunk. Yea..i’m gonna have a few drinks..but I’m definately going to pace myself and not get too drunk. I’ll just get nice and buzzed. :)

I haven’t gotten stupid drunk and haven’t been binge drinking since my birthday in March. Whenever I would go drinking my mentality was always “more, more, more” to try to get a drunk as possible. Now I count my drinks and drink slowly so that I don’t get too drunk, I just get a nice feeling. I’ve drank to the point of almost alcohol poisoning on two seperate occasions and have gotten myself into some very embarrassing situations. I don’t want to get stupid drunk anymore. I want to go out and have a nice time and not have to worry about how I will feel the next day. I’ve started to go to bars and clubs less and when I do go, I offer to drive or tell myself I will only have a couple drinks. Apart from health benefits, it also saves money. I think I’m getting to old for the drinking scene anyway. :)
