Nah man if you are literally unable to go out and stop after one or a few drinks, or even none, then you're probably an alcoholic. Getting sloshed on a night out every now and then is normal, doing it every time is not....
emily f exactly. These people have a problem
e c well, I only drink like. Three times a year, but everytime I cant stop myself from drinking until I throw up at least once. Not an alcoholic, just lose my self control when I drink, even if I only drink a little and start out telling myself I won’t drink more. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Agreed. I've been drinking for years, but I only ever got sloshed once, during college. The following morning was hell, and I haven't got that shitfaced since. However, I'm glad I did got shitfaced at least once in my life. Now that I'm older, I think I can control how much I drink. For instance, when I go to pubs with friends I only have two (sometimes three) pints, and that hits the spot.
I don't think you understand what an alcoholic is...
So true that's how I found out my ex husband was/is a functioning alcoholic he couldn't go one day without a drink smh
Thank god im now in recovery ❤
Ebony Smith we r so blessed❤️
Ebony Smith God has nothing to do with it. It was your own choice to go into recovery
@@TheRabidRaccoon God has everything to do with it
@@Србомбоница86 no god is evil and clearly doesn't care. Like I said it's that person choice they choose to get help etc

I finally gave up drinking, never want to touch alcohol again. I like being sober, I like thinking clearly and I like not damaging my body. It's a shame they didn't focus on the health aspects of binge drinking which are very serious indeed and much more relevant than a one off accident.
When we're young we somehow think we're immortal or invincible. Glad you guys have started this series and I hope these guys start working on their drinking
No matter how much they say they're going to change doesn't mean that they will actually help themselves. Just because you say words doesn't mean that your actions will change
it’s not like they’re gonna stop binge drinking tho
If the people with you don't stop you from drinking too much and putting yourself into a dangerous situation then they are not your friends because they don't care about your well-being.
2.5 years alcohol free for me.
I used to be “that girl”
Happier sober!!
Valerie P stay that way hunny
Zakariya Azeem that’s the plan 😊🙏
Congrats!
Luna.wolfsister thank you!
Woo, well done x
I'm so glad that I don't drink anymore. I'm a better person now.
Ursula. M same.
Striving For The Sea ... Thank You. ☺
Same. Used to get sh!t faced with a pastor and black out weekly. Turned into a three year thing. Aug 30 2018 will be one year sober.
not my real name proud of you man!
Ursula. M that's so good
Drinking is overrated
Wise comment
Agreed
So true!
It is. Having a nice glass of wine with dinner is one thing, but drinking to always get drunk or binging like these sad kids here is senseless and a waste!! If you feel the need to drink to get drunk in order to have fun, let lose, deal with stress or any other reason, then there is a deeper issue going on with you that you must confront and deal with. The drinking only masks that problem and shoves it down temporarily so you don't had to deal with it in that moment, but it doesn't fix it and it won't go away or resolve itself. Those issues will just build and build and build, getting bigger and bigger, more serious and more out of control the longer you do this until it all boils over and you find yourself in a very precarious situation that's very serious and dangerous.
And so is weed
That girl ain't going to change
That's quite an unfair assumption to make
She was almost gloating
I don't like her, she seems a right dickhead. "Now they're total alcoholics" Do you even know what an alcoholic is, love? There is no such thing as an "alcoholic" only alcohol dependence and abuse.
@@lizzy-wb5ii So were the other guys.
@@watermelonineasterhay Alcohol dependance and abuse *is* alcoholism.
I once fell down 2 meters because of a blackout (I wasn’t too drug, I was also dehydrated and it was very hot and crowded).
I fell down from the first stair step and landed on the floor on my left temple. It took me a while before I woke up. My temple were the size of a tennis ball. I got in an ambulance and I couldn’t feel anything “wrong”.
The weeks and months after I went to regular doctor appointments to get checked. I have so bad nerve damage over my left eye that if I massage it, my sight will dissapear for a few minutes. I have gotten tinitus (ringing noise in my ears). I had black/blue marks per step of the stair on my entire body. I have suffered from hip pain ever since and whenever I reach my lower back turns to gel.
I was 1 cm from dying and a few mm from being paralyzed from the neck down. I feel lucky every day. I have braindamage (probably had that anyway lol) and I stutter a little. But this is better than being paralyzed or dead.
I don’t drink anymore. The accident happened almost 6 years ago, but I quit drinking 100% a year ago. Whenever I got a glass of wine I got anxiety and was afraid of walking stairs. So I decided to just stop. I don’t miss it ^___^
drunk* not drug lol! Never tried drugs.
Don’t do drugs or drink kids
Quiet Autumn that gave me chills, amazing how you turned your life around!
Thanks for sharing your story and how you're doing now.
I hope you're doing ok, I know exactly how agonising something as simple as tinnitus can be and how it can completely change your life
@Armando Sturzenegger lol someones hungry
former alcoholic... these ppl have a social anxiety problem.
Brittany King I don’t u can judge to that extent
i just did. it's my opinion. you don't have to agree.
Thank you, Dr King.
Someone in recovery doesn’t refer to themselves as “ former alcoholic”.
crichtonIASA I don’t, you are never a “former alcoholic “, you are in recovery and it’s a struggle everyday to stay that way.
i know someone who got really really drunk and fell out of a five story window. she went into a coma and when she woke up she had to relearn how to talk and walk. it’s a miracle that she’s still alive and now, 6 yrs later she’s made a full recovery!! but it’s important to know the dangerous effects that alcohol can have
Mary Elizabeth that's gravity not alcohol Mary.
@@James-ms6uj but it would not have happened it she wasn't drunk on alcohol
@@beans_potatoeseh..maybe. Maybe not. 🤷♂️ Does she still drink?
His story is so necessary to share, alcohol can be so dangerous!
Nicola Star use dots or comma's. 😂 I read "sharing alcohol is dangerous"
No falling off a bridge is dangerous
Alcohol IS dangerous. Full stop.
I'm a bartender and i don't drink.
I did before i got this job.. but now it just breaks my heart that most people drown their sorrows in a glass. I'm not saying it in a judgemental way, it's just a very different view from the opposite side of the bar.
I support the message and everything but is the sudden shift to emotional piano music necessary? Lmao.
Emotional manipulation
Should they play hard rock instead or what?
ZombieDream leave it silent, the shitty over emotional music is forcing it down your throats
I think they added it to make the message more hard hitting, after all this video is clearly made to prevent other people ending up in the same situation as this man.
sad, stupid people who don't realise how much they're harming themselves. it's not just accidents as a result of drinking that can hurt you, excessive drinking also damages your organs and ages you terribly.
hm they aren't stupid, more troubled, everyone has an unhealthy coping mechanism everyone is addicted to something. Including you and me💖🙂
Mukama's Love correct we ain't all saint's... It's just the way it is... Do we really want to live forever, I certainly don't am done with this life. 😉
Claudia Ngwena well said. 👍
Claudia Ngwena Sure, but they all also problaby know about the injury it makes inside their bodies? No one seems to care since it's legal.
boring they are clearly boring people if they cannot have a night out with friends without getting absolutely pissed
That girl is a serious alcoholic, to drink and have black outs is a sign of a major alcohol problem and she seems to think this is cute and one big joke but it's far from it !! Even if she doesn't care about herself and her own safety she needs to think of the risk she poses to others! It's not a game and it isn't cute!
And this is what is legal ladies and gentlemen
BY exactly ...people need to realize that the government doesn't really care about the people, alcohol is just another industry
BY Prohibition failed
Marijuana can be dangerous too. Don't fool yourselfs. I'm Dutch so I would know. Everything good comes with consequences. Never overdo anything and never get addicted. Know your own body.
cheristina everything is dangerous ,some things more than others
cheristina weed is good for your health. do ur research
My moms and alcoholic and I can tell you. It's. Not. Worth. It. Me and my four other siblings have endured so much. She's a angry alcoholic, nothing is worth it. It's the scariest feeling to the people around you when you're drunk.
Side note: how many times did he have to come out and tell his story for them to edit video like this...
I want a eating disorder one
Yes! It would be great,pls!
how would that work? "facing the consequences of *an eating disorder?" all of these videos focus on bad choices people make, and people dont just choose to have an eating disorder lmao
lovely I think the video should be about people that do extreme dieting and someone with anorexia can talk about the horrible things their EDs caused them
Not a good idea with the nature of these disorders
Moose The Great III people don’t choose to have eating disorders?? This kind of video would just add shame to those who already struggle with food.
I don't drink at all - its great, no depression, no anxiety, feel great every morning - alcohol is a depressing lifestyle
Bris Vegas agreed, it's a great feeling when you finally get out of it.
I dont drink at all as well, but I do suffer from depression. THATS why I dont drink, cause Ill get addicted. Alcohol amd depression go hand in hand
Exactly. Never drink, it's a devil that will never let you go.
Yes, instead exercise the body and mind with regular walking or cycling or running/swimming/etc.
Tf everyone in about, nothing wrong with getting drunk on the weekend with your mates. It’s fun? One time for like 2 weeks getting drunk isn’t a bad thing
I quit drinking because I don’t know how to have a healthy relationship with alcohol. I can’t just have a couple glasses of wine or a few beers, I have to drink until I’m so drunk I pass out, black out or do something stupid that I always regret. So therefore since I was a binge drinker I decided to quit altogether. It still gives me anxiety, it’s so hard to not want to drink.
It's not just accidents that are an issue. If you're a regular heavy drinker, it will shorten your life, probably dramatically due to preventable illnesses such as alcoholic fatty liver disease (which can lead to cirrhosis and death), alcohol-related stroke or alcohol-related dementia. If you are an occasional binge drinker, then you have less alcohol tolerance compared to someone who drinks heavily daily, and you are at risk of lethal alcohol poisoning. Alcohol poisoning doesn't wait around. You will fall into a coma and can die in a matter of hours.
Drink responsibly, get help if you need it (a quick google search will tell you about all the services in your area) and when it is time to stop, stop.
jake ellis I lost my mum to alcohol she was an addict and in the end she had cirrhosis of the liver and it was too late for her. I feel like people really don't know the real effects of alcohol and to watch a loved one go through it is so painful and I try to share my story to help raise awareness of the risks.....
I'm sorry to hear that, stay strong buddy.
jake ellis I try I am fortunate enough to have a good support network I just hope to raise awareness of the real effects of drink
@1066Rider nah,it catches up to everyone ,sooner or later
People act like weed is the enemy , when alcohol ruins lives every day ,but no one cares because it's legal
Do not go gentle into that good night
Weed is bad aswell, a friend of mine died while driving high. Killed one passenger, 2 got off with minor injuries.
Any kind of drug (alcohol is a drug) is bad for you in excess. Just dont do any of that shit. Stay sober.
Alcohol makes companies loads of money and thats what they care about
@MushroomOnceToldMe 1 I disagree ,small amounts don't cause cancer .Weed is horrible ,people smoking weed are dirty and disgusting
@@Србомбоница86 people who don't smoke weed are dirty and disgusting. So let me get this straight, you think george washington was dirty and disgusting? How about bill gates, terence mckenna?
@@DeathlyMane yes ,all dirty people
These people are so sad. Not like, "i feel sorry for them" sad, but like, very very lame and pathetic kind of sad.

Nah. Your mom set my profile picture for me.
Your taste in jokes is as pathetically sad as your profile picture. I almost feel bad for you.
Your choice of supporting alcohol abuse is pathetically sad. I don't even feel bad for you. You're just an idiot.
No ones supporting alcohol abuse, I support freedom of choice

When it said “rip Spoderman” I spat out my drink
I don’t drink alcohol at all.....someone asked me once when I was ordering a coke at the bar...’coke... !!!! Are you not having a real drink? ‘ I explained I didn’t drink alcohol ..then this person said ‘ how can you enjoy yourself if you don’t have a drink ?’ My answer was...if you need a drink to enjoy yourself then you’ve got a serious problem with alcohol....the shock on the persons face I wish I could have photographed it !!!!
And this here Susan is why everyone thinks you’re bland
It's not that crazy a story
I really needed to see this video. Thank you BBC. I don't drink as much as I did in uni, but when I do I tend to go off the rails. I try and drink water in between pints and eat heavily before I go out, but I still black out and end up on a night bus to no where.
eon001 try therapy(private better) and watch school of life videos 💖💗💙💚💛
eon001 ruclips.net/video/f55QO2isoKM/видео.html
Appreciate the advice and links. I'm far from an addict though. I drink socially once a month. I just occasionally I black out.
That's worse, if you are just occasional drinker ,you are in even bigger risk of alcohol poisoning
I used to have a serious alcohol problem. I don't drink now because I can't control myself when I do. My best friend can't go a day without alcohol. I hate it.
Tell Yr friend and you to get a good therapist(if possible private) and explore your mental relationships with alcohol as a coping mechanism. Watch lots of School of Life videos. Yr friend is just desperately trying to cope. 4 some alcohol is not enough to escape, so they move on to suicide and or stronger drugs💟💖
Lauren Lightstep ruclips.net/video/f55QO2isoKM/видео.html
It's easy to hate it now but in the distant (or not so distant) future you'll start to see these things catch up to people and you'll be greatful for respecting your body.
I’m in a really bad way. 2 days, no sleep, too much cocaine, so much vodka. I’m done, never been so depressed in my life. I just can’t anymore.
Try to get help. Share with people that you care about. Maybe seek counseling for the reasons that you are using. And counseling specifically for the drug use🙂
If you HAVE to get drunk every time you drink, or if you just want to drink a little bit but always end up wasted... that’s how I was. It took a lot of years, a lot of blackouts, a lot of ruined relationships, a lot of embarrassing moments and regrets to realize that I CANNOT drink. I wanted so much to be a social drinker, but some of our brains just aren’t wired that way. I wasn’t an alcoholic but when I did drink, I couldn’t stop. I could go a year without ever having a drop of alcohol. But when I did drink, I’d get hammered and make an absolute fool of myself and be hungover for days. I went on my first real adult vacation with my best friend this last month. To a party town. I didn’t drink a single drop of alcohol and it was the best week of my life! And I can remember ALL of it! Nothing, NOTHING good comes from getting drunk. I have learned this the very, very, VERY hard way and I’ve tried to disprove myself on that many times. But absolutely nothing good comes from being intoxicated. I’ve had friends killed in drunk driving accidents (they weren’t the ones drinking), I’ve had friends clinging to life because of alcohol poisoning, friends in jail, marriages ruined, careers ruined... it’s not worth it.
Keaton Buster Sure some people just can't drink, but saying nothing good comes from being is exaggerating. It's a social libricant and the proper amount can certainly make things more fun.
Jorgensen Penus I said nothing good comes from being INTOXICATED. Some people CAN drink socially, without getting drunk and that’s great. But nothing good comes from being DRUNK.
This is me .
And I'm scared of the person I'm becoming . Of the relationships I've ruined because I just couldn't handle myself when drinking.
Just recently I messed up one of the best relationships I've been in and I don't even remember how. Had to be told later. It kills me that I've hurt so many people cause of alcohol and put myself in dangerous situations because of it .
I'm scared.
But I hope I have the strength to truly stop like you did.
I don't think I can handle hurting anyone else. Or risking myself..
@@mayakigen5143 thank you for sharing your story with me. I’m so sorry you’re struggling. The good thing is that you’re aware of how it’s affecting you and you’re not in denial. It sounds so cliche, but admitting you have a problem really is half the battle.
Do you drink all the time or do you binge drink?
I can’t take all the credit for getting sober. I was addicted to drugs and alcohol and at my lowest point I prayed a desperate prayer. I said “Jesus, I don’t know if you exist, but if you do, please do something big to FORCE ME to get clean and sober. I can’t stop on my own, I’ve tried and I’m going to die like this. If you’re real, please MAKE me get clean and sober.”
About two days later I found out I was pregnant and that truly forced me to stop. I’m not saying I’m the Virgin Mary lol. But I do believe God allowed it to happen at that exact moment in time because he knew that was the only thing that would make me stop. The pregnancy itself wasn’t necessarily the miracle. The miracle is that my attitude towards drugs and drinking shifted immediately. My priorities changed, my interests changed, I had no desire whatsoever to get drunk or high- and not everyone that gets pregnant can say that. A lot of people stuck in addiction can’t stop using even if they’re pregnant.
So, I don’t know if you’re into praying or not, but if you are- or even if you’re not (what’s there to lose?)- I encourage you to pray a similar prayer. “God, I can’t stop on my own. I need your help. Please do whatever it takes to get me sober and keep me from hurting anyone in the process. Please do something to FORCE me to stop.”
I’m not here to preach or convert anyone. I just know that when I was totally out of control and I asked God for help, he showed up.
I also highly, HIGHLY recommend getting into a rehab program and if you drink daily or you’re fully dependent on alcohol, a detox program. I didn’t go for a long time because I had this idea of what rehab was and I didn’t want to be locked in a hospital for 6 months. But I found a fantastic program by me that did OUTPATIENT detox and rehab. I went there for several hours a day and they had everything I needed right there- doctors, therapists and counselors, etc. It was so helpful and the things I learned there are still helping me stay clean and sober today. I always encourage anyone struggling with addiction to get professional help. Don’t let anything stand in your way of getting into a rehab or detox program. I know a lot of people say they can’t go to rehab because they have work, or they don’t want their family and friends to know (which they need to anyways), or they don’t want to pay for it, or they have school, or xyz. All of that stuff can be addressed later. Getting sober can’t wait and needs to be top priority, because you wont have any of that stuff if you continue drinking anyways.
You can do it! It IS possible and I know it feels like this massive challenge, like climbing Mount Everest. But you do it the same way people climb Everest- one small step at a time. Just choosing to be sober for that moment. You don’t have to worry about being sober your whole life- just one day at a time. One hour at a time. One minute at a time. Just choosing not to go out for this Friday. And then when Saturday comes around, choosing not to go out and party for that day, too. And then the next. It’s one small step at a time that adds up to weeks, and months and years, slowly but surely.
I know you can do this!!
Well said
I’m a former alcoholic. My ex broke up with me because I was literally drinking everyday and that pissed him off. Also ruined my career with alcohol.. so now I’m sober and trying to get my life together since one year.. it’s starting to get better. You sure CAN drink alcohol and have fun but if you’re like me and begin to drink alone, very often and very intensely you’re just sick. It took me a while to realize that.. Drinking too much alcohol isn’t funny when it’s starting to ruin your whole life.
Hope things are better for you now
Well I'm dieing due to bing drinking I'm only 40 years young I will not get to see my 2girls grow to be young adults so please take in what this man telling you,s god bless you all MCL from steve Australia
i stopped drinking 1 week ago. i was blacking out multiple times a week. it’s early stages and it’s not easy but already i’m feeling better. after watching this it has pushed me to keep going.
Ma Sh keep strong mate, one day at a time you'll conquer the need to drink. I'm proud of you.
thank you
Ma Sh every time you feel the urge to drink again just search the bad health effects of alcohol. Stay strong
Mee to didn't know what I did the next day going on a month sober
Late reply but how’s it going? How do you feel now it’s been a few years?
I have never even sipped on a glass of beer or wine or anything else and I know why I don't do it. My father is alcohol addicted and that's why I decided for myself to never drink any kind of alcohol. I have to mention that it's socially not really accepted to not drink alcohol first of all because I'm a 16 year old teenager and second because I live in Bavaria,Germany where alcohol is actually a part of the culture and kids grow up drinking from their parents beer glasses and it's totally normal to have a complete hangover after the weekend. Maybe I'm not normal but that's just something I think is necessary.
Sister Stina hey you! I’m from Germany too and have always chosen to not drink. This has made me into an outsider and a weirdo many times, but I’m 19 now and I don’t regret my choice. Watching people get absolutely wasted will never become normal to me.

When the guy said he only drinks alcohol for the effects, that upset me. That’s exactly why I started drinking and before long it took over my life, because it kept getting harder and harder to feel “the effects.” However, I think the message hit home with him.
I'm very lucky that something devastating didn't happen to (or caused by) me. If you ever feel like you might need to stop, just try it out. For a day, a week, whatever: you don't have to commit to never drinking again, just give it a test run. For me it was the right thing - I'm 32 now and ten years sober. And if you do decide to stop, know that AA is helpful for many, many people but it's not for everyone. It's a tool, not a requirement. The only "right" way to get sober is the one that works for you.
Can we just agree that drugs-sedatives, stimulants, _anything_ that impairs judgement-is bad in excess? Please?
Yes.
Yes
My uncle was driving while intoxicated and crashed into a telephone pole. He died. Don’t drink and drive, heck don’t drink fullstop
This series is so helpful for me and I'm sure many others. I'm only 14 years old and I'm glad I can watch these and see the consequences of these things so I can never make those mistakes because I know ahead of time what the consequences are. Thank you. :)
I know it's a 4 year old comment, but this is the best comment on here.
So was Dan a binge drinker? Or was this a one off drunken mistake?
He told the girl that he would get blackout drunk too. I'm pretty sure he was a binge drinker as well.
This is vain but the biggest thing that made me stop drinking was that it makes girls gain weight and there’s no way I was gonna let that make me feel bad about myself. So I just quit cold turkey. If you have an addictive personality its gonna be harder. But if someone wants it bad enough they can do it.
I personally don't see the appeal what so ever. It doesn't seem to smell nice. It doesn't taste that nice either. I've only had about a glass worth in my life time and that's enough for me. I really don't see how people can drink the stuff personally but there you go.
Most of it doesn't taste good, it's rather odd especially considering so many people just guzzle alcohol. Now, I do like to have a nice fine and expensive glass of wine with a nice dinner. The wine, to me at least, tastes wonderful and you can taste all of the flavors, under notes and flavor bursts. But I only drink fine wine that's from a good year and excellent vineyard, which means it's rather expensive, but it's worth it to me.
“I don’t drink for the taste, I drink for the effect” I thought omg that’s me
I indulge in alcohol because I have social anxiety. I don't drink because I love it, it's because when I'm drunk I become someone who I wish I was: confident, outgoing, "free". When I'm away from the top shelve, I'm awkward and I hate the way I am when I am sober. I appeal to people more when I'm drunk, and that is so sad.
I’m right there with you. Literally everything you said is so relatable from my personal experiences. I just want the confidence
Sadly it's the culture in the UK and Ireland. Binge drinking is very acceptable. No matter the cost. Look at the streets in most major towns at chuck out time. It's chaos.
same in germany...i couldnt imagine the weekend nights in the city without young people getting completely wasted, pissing everywhere or womiting
My last alcoholic drink was new years eve 1999 and i dont miss it at all
“my friends they call me a massive liability when we go out” she said with a smile on her face
And yet weed is illegal when it is 10x safer then alcohol
3 months sober. The first step is admitting you're powerless over alcohol and your life has become unmanageable.
Sober power
I bet he’s the Black dude acting a fool for his white friends being the only one in the room. 🤔
And that ladies and gentlemen is why I don’t drink, never have, never will.
My dad drank a lot when he was dating this girl who was an alcoholic. I was only 15 at the time and we almost got into a car crash cause he was driving while intoxicated. Instead of taking me home from the movies he sped and swerved to his ex girlfriends house to yell and scream at her. That was the most terrifying day of my life and I'm so happy I'm alive. My dad taught me why I shouldn't drink and I never plan on touching a drop in my life.
Yes, alcohol can cause many problems but this could’ve literally happened if someone was sober? Like you can fall sober
“I Just drink Alcohol for the effect, I don’t drink it for the taste.” 🙄 Well obviously!! Who the fuck drinks it for the taste.
1L of vodka??!!!!! that would literally kill me
I’m not even an alcoholic but I know it’s possible if don’t educate my self from now
1 sec can change your life...make better choices
My grandfather actually has stage 4 liver cancer for binge drinking almost all his life. He is on the verdge of death from it. It really causes everything to just drop down hill so fast. Please please don't binge drink,it is the worst
So glad I quit drinking. I suffer from depression and after a night out I almost killed myself from the downer of the alcohol. I'm a better person without the drink.
I always felt like drinking and me went along together great. Now I'm always getting too drunk and screw up all my relationships
I am almost 7 years sober and a much better person for it. Literally the most difficult part of it is the social stigma. It is extremely rare to not drink at all in the UK. Really, really sad state the world is in.
I will never understand how people can do this. Drinking a liter of vodka?! Just the though of that makes me physically ill
Living in a house with three toddlers, the trip hazards are a serious issue. Even when sober, much more when intoxicated. I've always predicted to my death to be a terrible fall, and I've had many of them already. I am just starting my road to recovery and considering medication to control it. Thank you for your story.
Back in the days I used to binge drink just for a laugh. Now I'm 36 years I have cut down on alcohol and I regret the days I got really drunk and did things I regret to this day. Next year one of my new year's resolutions is to not drink alcohol for five months and see what the changes are.
When your young you just drink and drink and I do this myself sometimes I continue to drink I just don’t know when enough is enough you never see the harm in it but this video broke me 💔
The black fella is so genuine all the people are genuine but omg that's so sad xxx
i don’t understand how can people drink when it tastes so bad ew
y a pas de malaise most people don’t drink for the taste, but for the feeling it gives you.
Drinking is disgusting when you think about it. If you can’t have fun while sober then your a boring person PERIODT.
What a bunch of knobs
It's the devil's juice , how I'm still alive is a miracle from drunken antics , many bad injuries but still standing , I'm Def a lucky one , feel sorry for that guy in wheelchair
Worst part is that they sound proud of it. What the hell is cool about passing out on a primary school or hurting yourself?
Alcoholism has a mind of its own. Once you’ve crossed that line, even a horrific story like this won’t be enough to make you stop
My dad died because alcohol..he didn’t eat anymore.. just alcohol.. all day all night.. he didn’t think rationally anymore.. it was a nightmare.. all that years .. everyone was happy when we heard that he’s dead ..
My boyfriend is muslim .. I don’t want someone along me that drink ... i ran away when a boy can’t pass the week without drinking .. because in 10-20 years .. he won’t be able to pass the day without drinking..
I don’t drink/ smoke/ do drugs .. and I expect the same from my partner
We need something like this for kids in America. Aside from "scared straight.". That show don't even do anything, it's more of a joke. I love this show.
anyone else have that feeling when u drink then wake up and feel like u killed someone last night? must be effect they put in beer these days.
Johnny Sounds what
koko*don* we call it 'The Fear' around here. It's real.
Its called a hangover
If I mix vodka and nrg drink or booze and Duromine I do that wake up thinking hope I didn't do anything too fucked up last night because I canr remember
I had a friend I used to hang with who would get black out drunk. I never saw the drinking bit but I would see the damage the next day. I questioned him more then once about his choices. He is still alive and I hope drinking less. We don't talk much anymore.
This is why I will never, never, EVER drink.
I had my last alcoholic drink on new years eve 1999. I missed it at first now i couldnt imagine going out and getting wasted.
Watching this whilst drunk
Omfg I don't even remember commenting this
@Unique what you saying dickhead
I've tasted alcohol beer tastes like vomit as does guinness
and whiskey & rum have no taste just an overpowering burning sensation followed by a strong headache . I could never get drunk I could never force myself to drink somthing that taste bloody awfull.
People don't think before they do. They are so self centred they don't think "it could be me dead today"
On another note if you suffer from a mental health condition binge drinking always ends in disaster. I get borderline suicidal. I do suffer from depressive episodes but drink scares me. The way it makes me stop caring entirely. I've planned suicide notes in the club bathroom whilst my pals are out dancing none the wiser.
Not good.
You don't need to he a binge drinker to fall of a bridge..
Kenzi Campbell I barely drink lmao. Im just saying one bad night is all it takes. Alcoholism not required
Nox well I don‘t fall of a bridge as long as nobody lifts and pushes me.
You also dont need to drink to crash a car, doesn't mean it's fine to drink and drive now does it? He fell because he was drunk which if he wasn't on that particular night he'd probably still be happily getting shit faced right now. Oops wheres the motivational crap.
You don't need to be a binge drinker to drink drive either. You're missing my point, binge drinking has nothing to do with it. Irresponsible decisions while intoxicated is the problem. If someone has an issue with drink and keeps doing it well then they make a lot more silly mistakes but it only takes one night of poor decisions, like I've already said binge drinking not required.
"Irresponsible decisions while intoxicated", you just rebutted yourself. Getting extremely intoxicated will only lead to irresponsible choices which wouldn't be made if sober. It's a known fact the more intoxicated you are, the worse the symptoms. One drink may cause some slight impaired co-ordination, binge drinking causes ataxia. So I don't know how when binge drinking was the deciding factor in causing their injuries, you say it isn't lol.
Sure I can fall of a bridge under hundreds of different circumstances but what does that have to do with someone like this man? I could fall off a bridge simply because it broke, does that mean I can't blame the people who built a shitty bridge? It's somehow my irresponsibility? (Such as the FIU bridge in Florida).
Anyway I wasn't being serious at all with my last comment so I'll just leave it at that lol.
Putting music on this subject doesn’t help people take it more seriously smh
I drink like 3 cocktails a year 😂 why would you feel the need to drink so much alcohol???
I understand his message, but an I an asshole for drinking despite of his story?
this dude in the leather jacket just laughing at him, what a mean guy.
NumberNine genuinely know the guy, he told me about this, just said he was crazy nervous (they also cut out quite a bit)
I also know him, I'm just being a prick
the way she chuckled as she said shes turned her friends into 'complete alcoholics'. makes me sick
I'm not sympathising with them. Videos about obese people receive pure hate and apathy, so maybe I should treat others how we are treated. It's your fault! You're not a victim! 😏
Edit: Obviously I do sympathise with them.
Heads Will Roll you freaked me out! Then I scrolled down😮😅😎
Bit passive aggressive lol
I drink a lot when I go out, I often have a cheap bottle of wine, a few vodkas and some shots before leaving then drink more at the club yet I've never done anything stupid. I've always been very aware of myself and my surroundings when drunk 🤷
Your organs will get sick girl
Isnt this the consequences of falling off a bridge not drinking?😂😂
