Why I quit tithing. I am a blessed non-tither, and I am still being healed from my legalism addiction. Thankfully, I have been sober for many years now. Praise You, Jesus. This video is also dedicated to You, Lord, the true Tithe given by Father to sanctify my heart.

Well ive done drugs before and i could see myself doing them again if my gf dumped me. They just help with depression(depending on which drug). But ya if you leave him then he will most likely get back into them unless he finds another girlfriend. Which isnt the first thing on your mind after being dumped. So im not sure what you should do. Sorry. I guess you could leave him but stay friends with him so that he doesnt get back into them too heavily.

Question by Rachel: Am I a true recovered alcoholic?
I don’t want to use he word “alcoholic” anymore as I have been there and done that. I used to binge drink till I blacked out on anything I could get my hands on for many years. Once things got bad and I got out of my denial, i placed myself into an outpatient center and sobered up for 15 months without a single drop of alcohol. I was proud of myself and had no urges. But I started again, only at social settings and maybe once in awhile I will have one or two beers with my boyfriend during dinner. The thought of getting drunk makes my stomache churn and after drinking in moderation for almost a year now. I honestly do not see my casual drinking to ever go out of control like it did years ago. I strictly drink only beer, as wine and liquor seem to remind me of the old days…I feel I am truley a recovered alcoholc, but the guilt still lingers everytime I take a drink. Should I feel this way?

I don’t think you should worry about feeling guilty. All that guilt is, is basically your conscience reminding you of your old ways and not to go back there again. It’s acting like a safeguard to make sure you don’t drink too much. Everyone drinks more than they should every now and then – unfortunately, it happens. At least this guilt prevents that to some extent.

I also heard that then people smoke these scabs and get high again. Is this true?

Dated a woman for 14 mos.-Were friends for yrs-Older brother s3xually abused her during childhood. She’s 45 & lives at home (where the abuse took place) with her mom-in same room she had when she was 9. She’s attractive, had abusive relationships, but no friends. She has plenty of $ and could easily move out. As we dated, she would get weird—accusing me of saying things that are s3xually inappropriate. I never tried to do this, & we NEVER HAD S3X. I actually liked her. I was always sensitive about the abuse, but she has called me names, hit me & been emotionally abusive. After 14 mos., I decided to bring this up. When I tried, she lost it & accused me of s3xually inappropriate behavior 0VER 1 YR AGO. She even accused me of being s3xually inappropriate around her niece-24 & dating a meth addict. Only been around niece 2X. Anyway, she stopped talking in Jan.-crossed paths with her 2X since. She was uncomfortable-acting like she would like to talk, but I’m nervous. Hey, I tried.

All of the following statements concerning Hispanics and alcohol consumption are true EXCEPT:

A. Hispanic societies encourage heavy drinking by men.
B. Hispanic men suffer high rates of cirrhosis
C. Hispanic societies discourage drinking by women.
D. Hispanics are most likely to seek help from Alcoholics Anonymous.

I heard this somewhere a few weeks ago. I don’t understand how being one of the greatest players in the world and being an alcoholic could go hand in hand, although I guess it could be true.

Would you call someone that drinks 3-6 (sometimes more) beers every evening an alcoholic? I think so. Tell me if I’m wrong. I’m sick of trying to justify this. I need some external input. Thanks!

I’m definately not a alcoholic, I’m asking for somebody else very close to me.
Not really sure if this is the right section or not.
