Do you get depressed after an ale binge?

The reason I gave up the ale 9 years ago was the crippling after-day depression. It used to leave me with that 'something bad is going to happen' type of fear so I just said 'no more'. I look at people now who live for going on benders and I feel nothing but pity for them.

If the ale leaves you feeling rock bottom then just stop. You ain't missing nothing by not drinking.

Well, there are folk who go on benders, and folk who enjoy a drink. That said, I wouldnt judge either.

Oh I know mate. The doc prescribed me 28 x 5mg Diazepam many years back for when I started on an anti depressant (I used to get every side effect on leaflet so doc said Benzos would help in emergency until the Citalopram reached a therapeutic level which can happen between 4-6 weeks for most people).

I made them lovely yellow babies last nearly 3 years. Had the last two back in January when I was having a monster panic attack.

Massively, and I'm only 24. Don't think it is an age thing.

I usually hit the drink heavily on the weekend, near enough every weekend. I never learn.

Usually remember very little of nights out, too, which makes everything 100 times worse.

I've been trying to get shandies on my rounds and getting just coke and pretending I've got rum or vodka in it.

The high isn't worth the next day.

Think the Irish call it 'The Fear'.

Not just the Irish mate, heard loads of people call it The Fear.

Hate it so much. I am done with weekend binging.

It is an age thing. The young don't have a clue how to drink sensibly. Just drink at a pace that suits you, don't be afraid to say you are fine and don't want another drink to your mates and just enjoy their company. Drinking is for socialising, not getting paralytic.........
