My drug of choice for bipolar disorder.
Self-medicating for legit biochemical issues is problematic in itself. But choosing ALCOHOL, which only ADDS physical, social, psychological, and physical issues ON TOP OF those the underlying bipolar bring? Ugh, what a downward spiral alcohol represents here.
Get in touch with local AA group. From everything I've heard, this has WORKED for countless people who failed at other ways to tackle their alcohol back-monkey. Going cold turkey from heavy alcohol consumption comes with medical risks, something those further down the path of breaking this addiction are best qualified to help with.
The GOOD news here: once you stop poisoning your body with alcohol, the secondary issues often resolve themselves. Alcohol breaks down first into acetaldehyde in the bloodstream, which like its cousin formaldehyde, poisons and hurts EVERY cell in the body, faster than natural building and healing processes can keep up.
Not sure I'd recommend going with a dopamine-pathway manipulator like Naltrexone as a first or even second resort.
You've got this, brother. And, you have a community of men here interested in your well being and development as a man. Admitting the issue and your responsibility for it is a big first step. Now, continue on the path to betterment!

Read MoreYup. I didn't want hookup culture growing up, it's just what I had to deal with. Conceded after around 5th serious relationship went up in smoke. Maybe it's the area I live in.
Hook-up culture's always been around in some form or another just with pithy slang for the young and retarded, duped into thinking their smart because they use codes and acronyms. Participation is optional, but always encouraged among those too stupid to realize it's a trap.
While you may see your relationship situation as not ideal, it's better a relationship end as soon as either party realizes their incompatibility with the other, rather than endure several years of a frictional marriage with children.
Regardless, something in you drives you to sort yourself out, dust yourself off, and try again. I can only pray you never loose that spirit and achieve your goal. For what it's worth, while it's not your fault they're stupid, they will make it your problem all the same. You're not obliged to put up with their stupidity.

Wokeness gone amok.
Tbh, I'm all in for equality in the war slaughterhouse, but thinking you might be at the frontline having a woman cover your back... that's absurd.

@redpillschool I distinctly remember you as standing above and apart from the fray in that time period. That said, I also remember in your role as TRP's titular leadership figure, during that period you did nothing to stop or address this internecine conflict. Whether the ongoing factional war was completely outside the scope of your duties and involvement or otherwise; I see no basis to judge you negatively over it. But this Roid Rage-esque battle did go on for some time, and resulted in much conflict and fractionation of our "community that's totally not a community or movement."

Oh more crazy conspiracy stuff.

@MentORPHEUS I'm not sure where these attacks were taking place- we put MRP on the automod list to prevent the weird bad blood arguments that were happening. Rule zero was applied to the subject.
