Why so many full blown Alcoholics in SEA

If you have something so weird, strange or off-topic to post and think it doesn't belong in any other forum; you're probably right. Please put all your gormless, half-baked, inane, glaikit ideas in here. This might also be a place where we throw threads that appear elsewhere that don't belong ANYWHERE end up, instead of having to flush them. FORUM RULES STILL APPLY.

Why so many full blown Alcoholics in SEA

Post by Pisshead »

Its normal to be alcoholic in SEA.

Drinking every day.....
Hangover every morning.

Is this what they call "living the dream"?


The grass aint always greener.......

Whilst escaping a the politically correct feminist western world i have come across a another huge dilemma here in SEA.....

The trick is to find the balance between cheap beer and drugs and work. 10% of the time it works every time.

When beer is .50 cents and you can live in the streets, or rent a room for $80 bucks isn't it obvious?

Really? Please define “long term”. Should I be worried because I am not on a downward spiral yet?

If they were living in their own country they would probably be on the same downward spiral. I't all about having the willpower to do what you really want in life
and not what drugs and booze wants you to do.
I have lived above a bar and often walk through it for the last ten years,,, but have never stopped there for a drink. That's ''willpower'' or ''wont-power''
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

I started living 2004 in Cambodia, never worked and I'm not a alcoholic or on drugs and stopped smoking recently. :bow:
There are people who cannot imagine that there are other ways of life than their own life. :facepalm:
