    The fear! The fear! The fear I am experiencing this morning is killing me.

    Baby free last night and consumed way to much and got locked. Phone smashed and sore back so must have fallen.

    But the worst thing was i met my neighbours in the smoking area and the absolute $hite that came out of my mouth to them, i am mortified and dunno how im going to leave the house.

    I dont know why im even starting this thread. Somebody make me feel better!

    You do realise where you've posted this, yes?

    Go online and buy blackout curtains for all windows in the house, set up online delivery from tesco or Supervalu. It's clear you can never leave the house again.

    I suffer badly from this too... however my sister puts it into perspective. You let your hair down last night, you had a good night, you deserve it, you work hard - you mind your kids 24/7 - your kids were not there. So what if you met your neighbours, they see you on a daily basis going about your business, they know you don't do this every night. Don't be ashamed-this is the fear - they will have had nights like this before, we all had and they were probably glad to see you enjoying yourself. Even if you spoke to them, they were probably all tipsy, how do you know they are not feeling the same. When the flashbacks come - say to yourself, I had a good night and I harmed nobody (but myself lol). They all have their own problems and I'm sure won't be thinking about you all day, have a rest and have a giggle about it and when the kids come back, big hugs will help you feel better and remind you that it's only them that matters. It's going to be a tough day but remember how lucky you are, you have a home and beautiful children beside you. Tomorrow is a new day:)

    Don't forget to murder the neighbours too.

    They can never let anyone know what you said to them.

    Good luck.

    It's generally worse than you can imagine.

    Yeah - get through today, and tomorrow will be a whole pile better.

    You'll be grand. Lots of people have done a whole pile worse on the drink (your neighbours included I'm sure!) :D

    Very true. We tend to magnify these things way out of proportion and give it more weight than it deserves unless it's an ongoing regular occurrence. Glad I don't drink anymore so I don't have to suffer the cringefest.

    Solution.
    3 rashers, 3 sausages, 2 white puddin, 2 black puddin, beans, mushrooms, 2 eggs, 4 toast (with real butter), 2 big mugs of tea, pint of diluted. Close the curtains, telly on. Crisps, chocolate, more tea. Chicken Curry with rice and chips and portion of chicken balls later. Bed around 9.30pm.

    Was out last night with the Mrs. Anyway, after boosting the froth off a few coldies, the nicotine habit got the better of us and we headed outside to feed it.

    Mid smoke, I banged into me neighbour who was obviously worse for wear, and I never really spoke to properly before.

    Anyways, after whinging about their broken phone, and enquiring if I knew anything about broken screens, let slip that theyre mad into swinging, likes the more mature blokes too.

    Mrs Stewart is polishing me crotchless chaps and Stetson now. We got a session for tonight!


    See ya later OP, code word is wallaby.

    Something I really don't miss. Wouldn't call it the fear, really only associated that with DTs. But did occasionally have nights where I could not remember chunks. Now was lucky in that I was a very happy drunk, invariably the worst news was that I was on the dance floor most of the night and giddy or foolish, was never nasty or morose. But wouldn't go back there.

    Ahh. This is when you need an extra awesome gland instead of where your shame gland is. Don't worry about it. The fear kills nobody! You went out, got drunk. These things happen.


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,810 ✭✭✭✭jimmii


    The only sensible thing to do is to burn all your clothes change your name to Jose and move to Venezuela and never use any internet connected device again. I don't think there's much else you can do to save this situation.


  • Registered Users Posts: 882 ✭✭✭ygolometsipe


    Well OP, I have a fair amount of stress in my life at the moment and
    I have noticed that when I drink my "fear"/hangover is too much.

    I react similar to you, what did I say, where did I hide that body.
    What if I told someone I once watched twilight oh the shame, oh the utter shame.

    but Don't be too hard on yourself! Its likely just a bit of stress or madness washing out with the booze :D

    Now its back to the Tea for you :)

    Unless you're examining gouges on your knuckles, various bruises about your person and picking stained glass out your hair, you've nothing to worry about.

    Take it as a lesson and don't drink at all or drink in moderation (if you can). Unless you feel it's well worth getting the fear...

    Sorry to hear. At least you didn't take to social media and post some dark sexual things to people.

    What did you say to your neighbour? (It's not funny i know but We could do with a laugh)

    I don't think heroin would be a good idea.

    When I used to get the fear the next day, I usually blamed everyone else and convinced myself I did nothing wrong and everyone else was a weirdo, it worked for me for years.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,326 ✭✭✭Heckler


    Horse is slang for heroin


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,915 ✭✭✭The flying mouse


    ???

    Heroin is also known as horse, though I haven't heard it called that in years.
