For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Are you up to reading AB again, nailedit? Please don't think for a moment that you are worthless, even though this episode is pretty bad... it's not the sober you. You got off alcohol once, you can do it again.
Your neighbours will be understandably very upset, angry and wary, but they used to be friends and I strongly suspect that they understand that it was not the 'you' they know and like who attacked them. There is a likeable you - you, they and we know it.
Try hard to get to the next detox session without any further trouble. Yes, your body needs alcohol - could you try drinking drinks with lower alcohol content to prepare it and get you there safely?
I don't know the law - whatever you did needs to be paid for - but then start with a clean sheet. You are punishing yourself mentally and that is important to help you change your life.
Still rooting for you - like a lot of others.
Anyone can listen, davebro, which often makes the difference short term. Yes, he does need help from mental health professionals. Unfortunately, mental health services are under huge pressure - the funding does not always go to them on the basis that there is still the view "in my day we just got on with it".
NailedIt is a long term poster of this site and when not in drink posts sensibly and with knowledge on many topics. He should not be prevented from doing so in his hour of need and will certainly not be the first ABer to reach out like this.
You do not have to be qualified to listen and not judge.
I simply cannot believe some of the insensitive responses to this post. A man tells us that he "wants to just off himself" and all that some people can say is, that he is attention seeking.
Don't you recognise suicide ideation when you see it? Or do you just admit to it when the person is actually dead? If you cannot say anything helpful, empathetic, supportive, or kind, say nothing.
And to Nailedit, I truly hope that you can find the help you need, and that the help you find will be permanent.
I have seen three good friends in my lifetime whose lives were destroyed by their addiction to alcohol. One of those friends has now, in his late sixties, finally found a way to feel good about himself, and to lead a useful life. My hopes and wishes for you are, that you can do the same.
jackthehat ... what a nasty tone you have. Just because someone has an opinion that differs from yours doesn't give you the right to dismiss it as arrant nonsense. Get over yourself.
I hope this poster conquers his demons once and for all but I have no sympathy or excuses to offer up for his unpardonable behaviour and no time for enablers such as yourself.
If he'd assaulted one of your loved ones I have no doubt you'd be screeching from the rooftops.
It's interesting when relative new comers, or those who've never interacted with the OP, have such strong opinions. And then call those who are far more familiar with the OP...sometimes even away from AB...enablers.
No-one on here is offering nailedit a drink. That's what a enabler would be doing. Instead he's being offered empathy and a place to express himself, along with advice. Kicking him up the backside will serve no useful purpose.
