Deep Rooted Problem?
Question by Squeegy: deep rooted problem?
I’ve got a problem that I’ve tried to deal with for years, and it never seems to get any better. I have such an aversion to all things alcohol related I can’t stand it. I’ve never had it, and don’t really want to. This has ruined relationships, friendships. I just can’t stand to see someone I care about doing it, or talking about it. I physically react to the entire topic..even just talking about it. I don’t know when this started or why. I’ve had people suggest to me that something probably happened to me when I was younger, but I don’t know of anything. Could I be repressing it? I don’t know what to do. I just want to understand it more than anything. When I’m with somebody and object to them doing it, even the response “it’s just a little sip” drives me crazy. What can I do? Has anyone heard of this?

I’m not quite that bad about it, but I understand, I think. I agree that there may be something in your past about it, and yes, you could be supressing it. I had some other “aversions” that it took many years with some very good friends to figure out, until I could finally call up the memory that initiated the problem. If it really is causing you this much trouble, you may want to check into some type of counseling to try and deal with it — or maybe some late night talk sessions with someone who REALLY knows, understands and cares about it. Good luck!!
