Первая стадия алкоголизма - это когда человек похмеляется наутро. Если вы утром после вечеринки даже вспоминать об алкоголе не можете, то вы ещё не алкоголик.
Alcoholism, heavy drinking, problem drinking, social drinking and abstinence.

Thanks mate. Whether I am or not does not change what I do and how my health goes.
This has been hell today, we were on first but the club changed it. I could have done our set then relaxed instead of sitting back stage trying to relax.
Anyway I stopped at 3, worried about my co-ordination!

Мне было интересно, и я прочитала книгу по наркологии. Есть несколько стадий алкоголизма, и первая - это когда человек начинает похмеляться. Это означает, что защитные механизмы в организме уже не работают. Это уже даже не звонок, а набат, говорящий о том, что пора срочно бросать. Ещё есть такое понятие в наркологии, как "бытовое пьянство". При нём зависимости как при алкоголизме ещё нет, но оно может перейти в алкоголизм, если им злоупотреблять.
Вам нужно больше думать о себе, а не о том, кто что скажет. Играйте просто для своего удовольствия в первую очередь.

Agree, I am either on the line or already over it. It's fine I know what to do. Tomorrow I have no excuse, no pressure just a relaxing Saturday. Same Sunday then work Monday.
У вас в городе есть пляжи?
Cover bands attract a lot more of the stickler types--they'll note every misstep and every perceived misstep. I can see how that would be stress-inducing.
But when it comes to music from the early 70s and before, oftentimes the recordings are such that you can't really work out every single little detail by ear. Then there's Phil Spector productions and the like, where that's pretty much intentional. How do you work around that?
In that past, with the few covers I've ever done--only a handful committed to record and a dozen odd just performed live--they were anything but "faithful" interpretations, to put it mildly, so I never really had to stress over that sort of detail.

Doesn't matter what songs you do, just how well you do them.

Nearest is Blackpool, we used to go as kids.
Я не знаю насколько это далеко от того места где вы живёте. У нас сейчас ещё достаточно тепло, море около +26°С, и многие предпочитают отдыхать купаясь и загорая на пляже.

Thanks for your nice comments all. The gig was great, got back at 2am and crashed out, knackered.

One way of gauging one's drinking is looking at your relationships. WAGS, friends, family, work colleagues and acquaintances, casual friends.
Any affected by alcohol?
A very close friend told me recently he had to break ties with me, this can only be because of the way that I am when I am drunk.
Needless to say I am devastated by this but I have to be honest with myself.
Anyway I forgot it is the Derby today so I am in the pub now, going back on what I said previously.
Anyway just general comments it is not my blog and I am sure Seattle will have things to say regarding the Derby no doubt, Manchester City are under investigation for financial irregularities.

When folks are going from an alcohol fueled lifestyle to one without, they are forced to break away from those who drink. It's not you so much as it's them.

For the longest time I convinced myself I just liked to drink more than most people. I'd call it "social drinking," but the truth was I was sneaking drinks before going out, then waking up ashamed of what I couldn't remember. It strained my marriage and I almost lost my job because I showed up hungover more often than I want to admit.
The turning point came when I blacked out at a family event in front of my kids. That was the first time I admitted I couldn't keep doing it on my own. I checked into Legacy Healing Center, and what surprised me most wasn't detox, it was the way they made me look at the reasons I kept going back to the bottle. They worked with me on the shame, the stress, the excuses I'd used for years. That's where I realized I wasn't just a "heavy drinker." I was someone who needed help, and finally got it

I drink almost every evening---not much - maybe 1 to 3 shots of ouzo, tequila, whisky, rum---usually one of each---I like whisky the best, but 3 shots of the same is boring.
My mom's dad was a heavy drinker; on market nights---He would take a wagonload of produce to the market town, then stay and drink, then, quite drunk he would lie down in the back of the wagon, and the horse would take him home to the barn---(really great horse) so because I drank every night, my mom opined that I might be an alcoholic(perspective matters).
One of my sons(the lawyer) was a practicing alcoholic-- In a conversation with him during that time, I discovered that he did not like the taste of alcohol -(he drank vodka)--what he liked was not being conscious. Thankfully he ain't doing that no more. Some of us can have 1 or 2 or 3 drinks of an evening and not want more, and some of us can't.
