    Partly the first and third, but most of it is simply that the smell of alcohol - any alcohol, from beer to bourbon to Communion wine - nauseates me. It used to be a lot worse, in that I no longer need to have my hand over my nose and mouth if someone at the table is having a Yuengling, but I still don't think I would be able to ingest any alcohol for a noticeable period of time.

    Wow, that's a pretty intense reaction. All forms of alcohol? I guess it has to be the alcohol itself because there is definitely a wide variety of smells when you factor in all the different varieties of beer, wine, liquor etc.

    I have to imagine rubbing alcohol is a nightmare and a half for you.

    Having the freedom to indulge at leisure can sometimes open you up to unhealthy amounts of use.

    Yes, and driving a car can sometimes open you up to unhealthy amounts of dying in an accident.

    Your statement here doesn't really mean anything.

    Drugs, in my eyes, have definitely made my brother's life worse. It's part of the reason why I pay a lot of attention and regulate the drug usage that I do partake in. I have a general rule of thumb that I only drink at parties or for special events.

    I guess it springs from that fact that is easy to do these thing safely and normally and you can step back from that experience and either not do it or do it again. Intoxication is a different experience for most people so I don't really get the attitude of 'I know I won't like it'

    I'm thrilled by the idea of experiencing new sensations and things

    This right here.

    My dad hides little bottles of alcohol in his desk and big bottles of alcohol in the cupboards and he drinks at night. My grandfather got drunk and froze to death in a trailer because he was too drunk to turn the heat on. My grandmother got drunk, took all her pills, and shot herself.

    I am suspicious of alcohol because I am worried that I am genetically predisposed to be an alcoholic.

    Very possibly. I just checked the local mall, which doesn't have the best selection. I'd've loved to spend more time shopping in Toronto when I was there, but my family stole me for dinner.

    Maybe do an online search or something like that for stores in your area. I'd imagine actually buying online isn't an option for you, you probably need to try things on, eh? Otherwise I'd suggest a couple of the sites I frequent for long skirts.

    I'm not too worried about that, to be honest. Women's L fits me just fine. I'd need to measure my leg length for anything that wants to make sure it hits my ankles, though.

    Link ahead!

    J. Jill, Shukr (the majority of my skirts are from these guys - very pleased with them), Soft Surroundings (a little pricier).

    You can also do easy Google searches for specific skirt types by price. I've found some nice broomstick skirts this way.

    I mostly drink on vacation. I have liquor in my cabinet. Usually it just sits there. Sometimes I will go to sonic and get a cherry limeade and top it off with some tequila for a ghetto Margarita. A lot of times I will just wander into the kitchen and take a swig of Bailey's straight outta the bottle, and that's my drinking for the day/week.

    Everything I've noticed so far. Although we were working with small amounts of pure alcohol in Chem in high school and that didn't particularly bother me.

    Given that you have to take a medication in order to prevent suicide, is it possible that your relatives were not alcoholics, but rather trying to self-medicate the situation for which you are already medicated?

    shrooms are a blast, but make sure you're with people you like/trust

    also I do have addiction in my family. I like to get drunk a little bit more than I would like but on the other hand I find it fairly easy not to drink. It's a caveat that I should have added, experimentation is generally only enjoyable when safety and well being are considered.

    Alcoholics can have a wide variety of reasons for drinking. The reason doesn't change the fact that they're alcoholics. It's not like self-medicating suddenly makes it 'ok' to get plastered every other night.
