Here's the thing: My gf and I have been together for a year now. She's been having this stomach problem for a week, in which we don't know what it is. She told me that a few years ago, she had a stomach illness and she drank 2-3 shots of whiskey to make it go away and it did. So I figured, why not buy a bottle of Jim Beam and see if it works?
I bought her the bottle (the $20 one) and she drank 2 shots. By the way, all this time I suggested that she go to the doctor, and she agreed to call the next day. She refuses to go to the hospital because she's afraid of getting sick from other patients.
Next day, after those 2 shots, she still feel sick and calls the doctor but couldn't get an appointment. I finally got to see her after 6 and find out she's had a ';few'; shots. I didn't know how many, and judging from how she was acting, I thought she only had 2-3 at the most.
Later on, her behavior starts getting worse and I start to think otherwise. I check out the bottle and find out that she finished at least half the bottle with a quarter left in it. I was shocked to see this, but did not say anything about it at first...
She suggests watching a movie with me, so I agreed and told her I will study for my final afterwards. So I get in the bed with my laptop to get the movie ready. Then this girl started hitting me with the pillow, and according to her, she was being playful, but to me, she was hitting me kinda hard and I was getting annoyed. I told her to stop but she kept going with it. Then she started saying insecure things like asking me if I want to go out with other girls.
Basically, her behavior gets worse and she wouldn't stop after I told her repeatedly to stop acting crazy. She completely forgot about the movie too. I got mad so I took the bottle and dumped the rest of the liquor in the sink. After that, I saw that she had some of the whiskey in a cup so I dumped that too. This is when she flips out and starts acting even more violent towards me.
I told her I was going to leave so I can study for my final which was the next day and I will come back later when she's calm again. I grab my backpack and she tried hard to pull it away from me and get me to stay, but I've had enough with her hitting me repeatedly before that while I kept telling her to stop acting like a crazy lunatic.
I drove to the college library and she called me and we started arguing...long story short, I went back to my house and decided to stay there for the night because I didn't want to come to her house and have another fight with her. I also needed to be undistracted so I could work on my final and a paper due the next day as well.
She calls me around midnight and we started arguing again, and she blamed me for how the night went. I told her that she should not have drank that much and act that crazy around me and that is why I dumped the liquor. She tells me to come back to her house (I've been sleeping at her house everyday since November) and if I didn't, we weren't going to see each other again. I told her no, because I need my sleep so I can work on my paper and final the next day but she still insisted.
She calls me back around 2:30 after I was already asleep and we went through the same argument. She sent me a bunch of text messages with insults directed towards me, such as I'm 24 and still live with my parents and basically telling me how bad of a person I am because I used to do drugs and she didn't. Meanwhile, this girl has a drinking problem and does not want to admit it. Whenever one of us buys a bottle of wine or gets some beers, she wastes no time drinking it up till it's gone.
She makes the excuse that she was using the whiskey as medicine and that she was going to drink as much as she can until her stomach illness was gone. Correct me if I'm wrong, but drinking 3/4 of a bottle of Jim Beam within 24 hours is insane, and she thinks it was justified because of her stomach sickness. She was not even hurting that bad neither, to the point where she couldn't move, vomiting, etc.
Anyway, I did what I had to do the next day with the paper and final and didn't get to call her until 9 pm. I called her phone (went to voicemail) and then called her house to look for her and spoke to her dad about what happened, and he says his family has a history with alcohol that she knows little about. I text her and told her to call me, and she did a half hour later.
I apologized about the night before, even though I probably shouldn't have, and about not speaking to her soon enough. I told her I had to work on my paper and final and that was why. After that, she said something along the lines of ';I understand...'; and then hung up.
I called her back and it rang a couple times then went to voicemail. I called again and this time it went straight to voicemail. I texted her ';????'; and did My girlfriend has a drinking problem and acts crazy, what do I do?
First off get her to some Alcoholism classes right away , if your stomach hurts you shouldn't be using whiskey to help it .... jeez go to a doctor if something like this is happening.My girlfriend has a drinking problem and acts crazy, what do I do?
Ok I want to start by saying alcohol is not a med for any type of illness ecspecially a stomach one she's gonna make it worse. oing to the E.R. doesn't mean automatic illness and if you can't get in with one dr. you need to call others until you can get an appointment...As for the drinking issue we've all done things we regret but if we can't realize them and except our faults or they happen repeatedly theres a problem. Tell her how iit all makes you feel and if she is still out of control maybe go to her family you said you spoke to her dad and she didn't know about the alcohol issues she probably should though. Do an intervention if you have to
And don't let her talk down to you your past is your past and shouldn't matter its what you do now
