Have you tried talking to him? asking him why he is doing it, why can't he stop, how does he feel when he is drinking and when he isn't? That sort of thing.

Yes, don’t be a sad fuck who can’t make friends, so he decide “daddy is my bff”.

Yeah hes a reg at a local bar. Like ive talked to him for years about it. He feels like he raised me right and im self sufficient so his job is done and he has just checked out. Hes in pain when he doesnt drink, he has so many medical problems so when he isnt drinking he just hates life because he refuses to take pills.

I have a lot of friends but only one Dad and he raised me and hes my best friend. Whats wrong with you?

Have you considered he hates being alive at his very core and he drinks to set himself free?

If you really love your dad, let him go, user.

I know people here don't like reddit but seriously, subs like r/advice can be helpful as hell. Try it

Fucking sad sap, keep basement lying

Probably trying to drink himself to death to get away from his clingy kid

How do I do that tho? Sit back and watch? Im 28 and havent done shit to repay him for everything hes done for me. He raised me right enough to support myself but I want him to be a Grandpa someday or live past 60 idk. Hes my support system because I have nobody else

im super active irl actually, this is the first time ive ever posted a thread on Yea Forums :/

my dad was actively trying to kill him self for like 2 weeks straight by od’ing on benzos. his wife didn’t know what to do and kept calling me to come over and help him get into bed or whatever because he was a big dude. i had a talk with him like “what the fuck man. this is really heartbreaking.” but he had a lot of demons and a lot of hatred in his heart. i got the call one day and was actually relieved because i knew he wasn’t gonna stop and he was just suffering by being alive. i miss him every day but i know that all that shit he was going through and has been going through is over. everyone has to die man. when it happens, just be glad it wasn’t sooner. my heart goes out to you user.

Kill yourself, hope your dad dies. go die you worthless fucking faggot

Haha you fucking faggot.glad your life is shit, hope your entire family kills themselves, they are all dead hahaha and heaven doesn't exist so they're not in a better place lololol

Yeah my Dad had a rough childhood and he figures since he raised me into a decent person he has done his job and completely checked out. Thanks for the kind words.

Sorry to hear this man. I've decided to quit drinking, only been a couple days but alcohol is fucking evil. It seems to make things better at the time but all it does is make things worse. Why won't your dad take pills for the pain? I guess if he's going to be addicted to something, which is the healthiest? Hope he changes his mind or something happens that helps him appreciate life. Feels good to get that poison out of your system actually

Kys

Because 2 of his sisters overdosed on pills and died and the third is completely addicted to them but shes had three complete back surgeries. I drink quite often though as well since I was kind of raised into it but hes already been close to death and that stopped him and changed his life for about 2 weeks, then hes right back at it. I saw him in the hospital and cried for the first time in like 10 years

Ask him to vape some thc extract with you

My dad drank 12 cans a day, with the odd bottle of brandy. I knew from a young age I had to prepare for his death. i distanced myself from the guy. He died 2 years ago and it still fucked me up. It's tough but nothing that Yea Forums can solve. Good luck nigger.

If he's gonna be addicted to anything, weed is the lesser evil than alcohol. Try to get him to smoke weed.

He cant until he retires which is in a year, Im just hoping he makes it that long

I cant distance myself from him. Hes all I got. He saved my life

lol imagine reaching out to Yea Forums for help wtf

what about cbd oils? the whole body high may be his style.

You might save his life if you go away

>my dad has cancer what should i do
maybe take him to rehab this is a serious disease you tard

Bro I am in the exact same position, my dad drowns straight vodka every night and he literally died from surgery complications last year and got revived and hes still doing it, idk how to talk to him about it I've never addressed it.

He drinks everyday in a local bar? But he’s got medical issues... so bad that he drinks because he doesn’t want take medication. But wait he still works and he’s retiring in his 50s? Sounds like a load of horse shit...

sometimes talking won’t do anything. just tell him how you feel and hope he turns himself around. alcohol is seriously terrible. the longer/more you drink, the harder it is to quit. hopefully he can get help on his own volition. he’ll have a better chance of staying sober this way. good luck user

How about you let him drink and stop being a nosey twat. He's old enough to make his own decisions and doesn't need some little shit telling him how to live his last years.

Give him some acid and look up some studies about how psychedelic substances can cure alcoholism. good luck

tell him whatd you do if he was gone

I wish I could give you an answer. My dad is in the same boat, and absolutely nothing that I have done or said has had any impact. I wish you luck, and know that you're not alone.
