Does anyone else have a physical reaction to alcohol when they drink? I haven’t always had it but there at the end as soon as I took a sip, it didn’t matter what it was, I broke out in hives, I’d become very itchy and my face would get so red it was almost blue… and my alcoholic brain told me just drink a couple more and it will go away 
If you were allergic to strawberries would you continue to eat them? No. But we alcoholics don’t think like that. Pure craziness. Day 24!!

This is my favorite answer!!!
I was an isolating alcoholic. I break out in bumps in the middle of what seems to be a freak earthquake investigation crime scene.

I did have a physical allergy. A phenomenon of craving would take place when I put alcohol into my body!

Me to or turn myself in the next day
Lmao it’s funny but not funny. we can laugh about it now. We have to
Tequila used to give me a terrible reaction. The first time I just blamed it on the number of drinks I had. The next time, I only had ONE SHOT of Tequila and my stomach was coming out of both ends for two days straight...non-stop...thought I was gonna die.
Tequila made me umm, amorous? Haha some very questionable decisions and very awkward mornings for sure.
Vodka used to do that to me. I stayed clear of it after the first time I tried it but this is different….. it could be wine, beer, twisted tea, rum you name it and I’m covered in hives within 15 min
Yeah that happens too lol

Anything with yeast gets my allergies going with hives or red nose; beer and wine mostly. My esophagus was so scarred, it would burn to drink!
