Well that would be completely diff then wouldn't it if it was a friend or family member because you would have an emotional tie with that person. In that case i would do everything in my power to help them. If they threw it back in my face for doing so they would be on there own i'm afraid. Is Gordon Ramsay a cold hearted prick because he doesn't help his smackhead of a brother..........no!!! He has tried and had it thrown back in his face. There are people out there who want the help and people who dont and gazza falls into the latter, so he can take his own path as far as i am concerned. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Used Gordon Ramsay as an example thats all. Like how you dodged that and just thought "f**k it al just call him a prick" And when did i say i was this world famous expert on alcohlism, i never. I gave an opinion on something and a couple of you decided to take offence to that. Since you like your scenarios heres 1 then. An alcoholic jumps in his car, crashes and kills a few innocent people........still feel sorry for him now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 gordon ramsey is a prick.i didnt dodge anything! good for him if helped him.but he clearly isnt a family orenintated person now is he/never saw or spoke to his sister in years.so i have my doubts to actually how far he went in helping his brother.as for your scenario well i wouldnt class it any diffrent from any drunk driver,who got in his car and killed a load of people.same as there loads who walk about a building sites everyday.either under the influence of drink or weed.that was a weak attempt at a scenario.

Face it if you dont like it then that person must be..wrong. In this post i have been ignorant, jealous, a child and heartless...all because i have no sympathy for a man who is an alcoholic and refuses to get the help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poacher3161 1,766 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I wish i could understand alcholisim better as i have seen wat its done to close freinds i just thank my lucky stars that i have not got an addictive personality despite having to have had to put up with my fair share of shit in my life it just saddens me nowadays [bANNED TEXT] you see young people thats dependant on drink were as 30 years ago it was unheard of maybe nowadays its because they are better looked after by the state in terms of sickness benefits but i am still of the opinion its an illness that you have got to be cruel to be kind to some people to get their state of mind to kick the habit.

Guest AngelicAcid Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Some take to help, some dont. Some find SOMETHING they always wanted and searched using chemicals, Beleive me, im an alchoholic , and have been since my first drink. I did 2 detoxes :sick: , and lost close friends and family , and I Drank even more , STRANGE how the human Mind works though. I was on and off the stuff for 20 odd years, and only stopped since getting me self a family sorted. Ive got a lot nmore open mind now, but still couldnt give 2 fucks about most things, and love to Touch the edge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scothunter 12,609 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 agreed angela some people like dell said have a very addictive personality.whether it be drink drugs anything really.and here a fact most people that are alchol dependant dont even realise it.a man comes home everyday after a hard days graft and has a few beers and a cpl halfs thinks he is ok.ask him to go a week without that drink.then he will soon realise if he craves it or not.the youth of today are no diffrent than i was when i was growing up in the 80s.f**k all to do but get pissed with your mates.as there were f**k all jobs and no prospect of one.granted the young ones nowadys are a certainly out of control in some areas,but thats a lot to do with not handling your drink.i aint touched a drink in years now.but i quite easily go to the boozer right now and a have a sesh.but the cons outweight the pros.and i wasnt exactly the nicest person with a drink in me.

Guest AngelicAcid Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 Ive been lucky mate, Infact very lucky indeed. I fell out with all my so called mates, and all of my family, lost some ok jobs, and basically went mental at the same time. Love life now, and couldnt give 2 fucks about else anything but my family and what i have left hunting wise. Just additcted to good stuff now though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
poacher3161 1,766 Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I still think the opening hours had a lot to do with it or it seemed that way it was o.k wile the goverment was rakeing all the exstra cash in creating a culture of binge drinking but [bANNED TEXT] they realised the cost of treating the problem started complaining about it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest AngelicAcid Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I was told by a very clever bloke about 10 years ago, that this country would have an epidemic of alcholism in the next 5 years, and he was bang on the money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
