But some definitions insist that in order to be a true bender, the drinking spree has to last at least three days. Why three days? Because a weekend is two days and there are many drinkers who drink all weekend. Going that third day, and possibly missing work or school day, makes the drinking spree a self-destructive bender, rather than just another lost weekend. During a bender, the drinker typically begins drinking as soon as he wakes up, continues drinking until he passes out again, then wakes up and repeats the cycle.

The origin of the use of the term "bender" to refer to an extended bout of drinking alcohol is not certain. Some historians think it may refer to the act of bending one's elbow to take a drink, while others believe it is associated with the phrase "getting bent out of shape. Sometimes the term "binge drinking" is confused with "bender.

Binge drinking is drinking five or more drinks in any one drinking session for men, or four or more drinks a day for women. While going on a bender might be considered self-destructive behavior, simply drinking five beers or a bottle of wine in one day is considered hazardous drinking. Whether you are binging or going on a bender, your life and health aren't being done any favors. Both are destructive and unhealthy.

7 Tips for Staying Clean and Sober

Drinking for three days certainly takes a toll on your brain and body, including inflammation, nausea, racing heart, and some pretty severe hangover symptoms. Researchers attribute these effects to excess acetaldehyde one of the byproducts your liver pumps out after breaking down alcohol that travels through your blood to your brain, heart, and stomach when drinking heavily. Knowing the signs of alcohol use poisoning and calling immediately can help you save someone's life.

If your continuous drinking or drugging session goes bad, you may end up committing or being the victim of assault, destroying property, or finally wake up in jail, perhaps with little memory of what transpired. A three-day bender that results in missing work or shirking other duties can be especially destructive to your reputation. It may be a wake-up call to others that you have a drinking problem and may soon be hitting bottom.

I am 7 months clean currently and in the NA program. I just hit a wall and had the same situation where a loud voice told me it was time to let go. The crazy thing is I took a photo of your book, posted it on IG and you reblogged it and for me that was a sign that I was on the right path.

You have no idea how much you have helped me get here. I have really tough days but I play your audiobooks on those days and remind myself why I started this journey and gave up the old one. Thank you for everything and congrats on your 12 years! You are such an inspiration to me. Thank you so much for this beautiful comment. I am so happy to hear that the book has served you, and I hope I can continue to support you on your path. Congratulations on your 7 months of recovery. Stay committed and lean on Spirit. I was a heroin addict, living—no, existing—homeless on the streets of Chicago, lower than rock bottom, 23 yrs ago when I had my spiritual awakening.

I made the decision that day to begin a spiritual journey into the light. Unlike you, my life did not become marvelous right away… There were many lessons to be learned and negative Karmic patterns to break before I found a life filled with blessings and success. I got clean and sober, but then the REAL spiritual work began!

Absolutely beautiful.

I was married for 26 years to an alcoholic and I had no idea. When it all came to light he got up and left. Left all his clothes, pictures, the dog, me, everything and never looked back.
