Crippling Alcoholism is a group for people who accept their lifestyle choice and don't want to be interrupted by underage, weekend-warriors posting about puking at the beer pong tournament they had when Ricky C's parents went to Aruba last summer.

Are you physically dependent on alcohol? Are you psychologically broken without it? Is your alcoholism crippling? Then you probably belong here. Welcome.

Have you never had the shakes, nor repeatedly put a drink above everything else till you lost it all? Then check out the good people over at r/drunk.

• CA 24/7 TRAIN WRECK CHAT

CA chat is not run by r/CA mods, so don't mention chat issues in here or to them. Ever.

PM the chat mods instead.

Webcam not required; participation is.

List of reddit/chat names is here.

Forum Rules:

• r/CA needs not your intro; only wants contributions.

• Follow proper Rediquette. Keep the conversation going. Also, intentional typos are a horrible method of expressing your current state of intoxication.

• There are lady boozebags here, too. Don't scare them off.

• The mods get drunk and do stupid shit to the logos and settings. Just ignore them, they will go back to normal when they're sober.

• If anyone uses the phrase "brah" or talks about beer bonging or jello shotting... just leave.

• The phrases "boozebag(s)", "fucker(s)", etc are terms of endearment here. A "fuck you" is usually followed by an "I love you guys". It's just how we CAs are.

• Whilst this can be a support sub for temporary breaks, this is not a recovery sub for lifelong abstinence.

• Avoid linking to CA. It's our happy little community, we don't want to ruin that.

• Do not draw attention to links to CA. Please just message the mods.

• r/CA is not your drunk twitter/foursquare/quickmeme/instagram.

• Please quality check your posts before submitting.

Think your post hit the spam filter? Know which drink you want as your flair? PM the r/CA mods.
