Today, the water was shut off, so I had to wash down my anti convulsants, anti depressants and sleep aids with an old, flat, non-alcoholic beer from the night before. I don't think I've ever had a more mentally dysfunctional cocktail. FML

Same thing different taste
Today, after a week of being tired and depressed, I realized my bottles for anti-depressants and muscle relaxants had gotten switched around. FML
Today, I helped myself to a small glass of cocktail from the fridge, not realising it was alcoholic. I told my mom what happened. She made me drink salty water until I vomited so I wouldn't get "alcohol poisoning". I'm 19. FML
Hair of the dog
Today, after a big house party the night before, I woke up with a dry mouth and a pounding hangover. I took a swig from a cup I'd left on my bedside table the night before, thinking it was water. Nope; it was vodka. FML
Today, out of partying reflex, I downed Communion wine like a vodka shot. FML
Today, I got sick of my flatmate stealing my food so I decided to sabotage a leftover pizza with laxatives. I came back home later in the evening after a night of heavy drinking. Guess what I had to eat in my drunken stupor. FML
Fuzzy memory
Today, I realized that mixing alcohol with my medication causes me to lose my memory. I went to see my favorite band in concert last night and I can't remember a single song they played. FML
Mess incoming
Today, my apartment management notified me that my water was going to be shut off all day so they could fix the plumbing. I took a laxative last night. FML
Today, I woke up in the middle of the night because I was thirsty. In my groggy state, I grabbed the first bottle of liquid I could find, opened it, and took a sip. It was nail polish remover. FML
The first step is admitting it
Today, I found myself sitting in the bathroom at work searching the internet for the alcohol and caloric content of cool mint Listerine. I now believe that I may have a problem. FML
Today, I was taking my morning pills. There had been a lot of fruit flies in my house lately. I grabbed a cup of water beside to sink to wash the pills down. As soon as I tasted the drink, I realized it was vinegar and dish soap used to trap the flies. I washed my pills down with dead flies. FML

Or, here's a thought, they could have actual medical issues that require the medication and makes leaving the house difficult. Which, gee, anti-convulsants are used to treat bipolar disorder, migraines, and... seizures. Which it's dangerous to leave the house by yourself if you have seizures because, gee, it'd be awful dangerous to be crossing the street and start having one. IF there were even any stores within walking distance that would still be open by the time OP got there. Also, there are in fact completely alcohol free beers. And, to be blunt, your assumption that OP is a drug addict because they didn't go get bottled water when there were context clues as to why that wasn't an option, is really rude and unnecessary.

as GhostFox stated...the OP is on the meds FOR A REASON! How do I know? He takes ANTI-CONSULTANTS which means he is MOST LIKELY EPILEPTIC. and YES there are some A-Cs that cause insomnia and severe depression. How do I know that? because I am Epileptic and take the EXACT SAME MEDS, outside the sleep aids as I take those ONLY AS NEEDED.

Not always possible. The nearest shop to me is at least a 10 minute drive away. Maybe OP doesn't have a car or wasnt able to drive because of their condition(s).
