How did it affect you?
Was the drinking every day or more binge drinking once-in-awhile?
I wonder about the affects of a "functioning alcoholic" who is otherwise a stable parent, not abusive, goes to work, etc. but I'm guessing they aren't too emotionally available.
"To raise nice kids, you have to talk to them like they are people instead of talking to them like they're property." -- Frank Zappa
My dad was an alcoholic, but it didn't manifest itself until my mom was diagnosed with cancer at age 45. He couldn't handle her being sick and buried himself in the bottle. He couldn't hold down a job, he'd be sick every morning and drunk every evening. We'd call him out on sneaking out to the car to make drinks out of his trunk, but it never stopped him. Mom kicked him out because she wanted to focus on getting herself well for her three daughters.
After she died, it got even worse for him. He'd be sober for a little while, but never for very long. When he'd stop drinking, DTs would send him to the hospital. He got in several car crashes (never hurt anyone else, thankfully). He died last summer of alcohol-related problems. I found things he wrote while in rehab programs and it was the saddest thing I've ever read in my life.
The real double standard is that when the Hulk gets mad and destroys things it's "incredible," but when I do it I'm just an asshole.
Sorry, but your password must contain an uppercase letter, a number, a haiku, a gang sign, a hieroglyph, and the blood of a virgin
yup but she was also an addict. Actually should be id since she is currently the same way. I think she was just the type of person who shouldn't have had kids honestly. we basically raised ourselves with help from my grandma.
s 8/5/08, x 9/17/11
The devil makes me orgasm.
My biological father was an alcoholic. Drunk everyday and abusive. My mom left him when I was in elementary school and I was eventually adopted by my mother's 2nd husband who also had issues. The biggest effect it had on me is that I'm terrified of drunk people, I don't like to be around drinking (and don't drink), and I find violence (especially by men) unacceptable in speech and in action. My DH promised me that he would never get drunk again after he did it once when we were dating and he saw how scared I was. He also knows that I never find it acceptable for a grown man to yell at, intimidate or threaten children/women with their words/tone/body language. I'm a strict pacifist and anti-gun for this reason (I saw my father put a gun to my mother's head at 4 years old and say he was going to blow mommy's head off).
I probably unfairly put pressure on him to act or not act certain ways b/c of my fear but he was well aware of this before we had kids or got married and he decided he was okay with it. I'm very guarded and use to come off as very cold hearted but that has lessened dramatically since being w/ DH and away from family. I also use to have anger issues and would rage about stupid things but I've learned to heal that part of myself. I've actually healed at lot in the past 7 years of being with DH. I often tell him that he saved me from a very dark place and I don't know where I would be if I hadn't met him.
"It's like everyone started speaking in tongues. And I don't speak tongues. :(" -Margo_Channing
I wonder about the affects of a "functioning alcoholic" who is otherwise a stable parent, not abusive, goes to work, etc. but I'm guessing they aren't too emotionally available.
My FIL (DH's step dad) is, IMO, a functioning alcoholic, although nobody in the family will talk about it or label it as such.
He was/is very successul, havsa beautiful home (with MIL) and had a good career (he is retired). However, he normally goes through 2 bottles of wine between 4 and 8 pm. He is never abusive or violent; in fact he can be quite charming, although he can also be really pretentious and arrogant, and that gets worse with the drink.
My SIL (his bio daughter) knows better than to phone him after 4:00 pm, and my BIL (his bio son) has spent most of his young adulthood trying to have an authentic relationship with his dad, so I would say that yes, in our case, FIL is emotionally unavailable.
I don't really care what he does with his life, but I do think it is sad that my children (who are 100% his grandchildren, as my husband's bio dad died over 25 years ago) are starting to notice his 'idiosyncracies'. Frankly, at 8 and almost 10 years old, they are getting too old to hide it from, and to make excuses to on Grandpa's behalf.
Melissa mom to 7!
In middle school I had a friend sleep over. When we were leaving for school in the morning we opened the door and found my stepdad passed out on the porch in a pile of his own vomit. I was humiliated. I have ton of stories like that.
I'm sorry, everyone, that I haven't been back until now.
I've read over everyone's posts & they break my heart. I'm so sorry for what you all went through!
My father was an alcoholic when I was young. He would binge drink, & was often short-tempered & cruel with his words. He did eventually quit drinking when I was a teen & we became very close. He passed away a few years ago.
The main reason for my post is because my SO is a functioning alcoholic. He drinks every day, but gets very drunk (slurring, stumbling around) about once or twice a month.
When he is sober, he's great. And often even when he's drunk he's not mean. Sometimes, however, he can get a little mouthy (he doesn't raise his voice or curse), but still I don't like walking on egg shells even for a day or two a month.
We have a 3-year-old together (my SO & I live together). She is too young to really know what is going on, but I wonder how long until she figures it all out.
I suppose my question is, how bad does it have to be to justify my leaving?
Talking to him has helped a lot since our LO has come along. He used to drink a lot more often. He is trying, but this binge drinking once or twive a month has been a regular thing for a bout a year now.
I really don't want to cause my sweet little girl to have issues later on. She is my main concern.
Thanks, everyone, for listening & sharing your experiences!
Life is GOOD!!!

Bill Clarke never served in the military, but he has boxes full of World War II memorabilia.
Clarke's brother, Richard, was 23 — 10 years older than Bill — in 1944. The Clarke family had moved from Toledo to New Mexico by then, and Richard had joined the National Guard after graduating from high school. He left the National Guard for the Army Air Corps.
Richard was being trained to be a bombardier when he was sent overseas to fight the Japanese, but he never made it home.

edit: WRONG SUBFORUM! I'm sorry. Would a moderator please move to recipes and ingredients?
Has anyone had Buffalo stout from Brouwerij Van den Bossche? The ratings on beer advocate are kind of scathing, but I really liked it.
The following review is based on my unrefined qualitative impresson. I'm not too well versed in the finer aspects of beer tasting but I know what I like.
To me it combined a little of the roasty flavor and robust mouthfeel of a stout, with a moderate ester(?) profile I associate with Belgian yeast, with what seemed like a slightly more pronounced hop character than your typical belgian strong ale.
Basically it combines my favorite aspects of my three favorite styles of beer: stout, belgian ale, and american pale ale. Plus it had a strong kick to it. The ability to create brews like this is the reason I started homebrewing!
Now on to my question. I'm not looking to create a clone per se, although a clone recipe would be very helpful as a starting point. I'm more looking to create a recipe that combines those three components so that they balance and compliment each other.
As a starting point I was thinking about finding a good looking Imperial Stout recipe, and substituting a Belgian yeast. Does anyone who's tried something similar have any words of advice?
not sure about the actual clone recipe, but it was a damn good beer. it's pretty much a stout with belgian yeast.
I brewed Brewpastor's Russian Unorthodox Imperial Stout and used Wyeast 3787 which is a belgian strain. I did this from the advice of a brewer at Avery who said they use that strain for Mephistopheles, and the mix of the esters from that strain and the chocolate and roasted malts combine to give a cherry/apricot like nose. I have it aging on oak (been there for a few months) and will bottle eventually. It tasted pretty good, you could start with that and then over-hop it, using a hop you think might work...
