Any Alcoholics?

Where’s Huggles when he’s needed…

Nobody likes a quitter.

It's easy. I've quit 15 times.

All you have put sounds great.
I am over 10 years sober - I didn't do any of that...

I was told, if I had another drink and didn't stop, I'd die.

Simple as that really - It was the wakeup call I needed and I haven't drank since...

They say 'One Day at a time' - I say 'One Drink at a time' Just decide NOT to have the next drink when it grips you - Then do the same again

Good Luck

You'll be one manifesto away from a killing spree . . .

Move the workouts to morning and skip the run, its useless.

Congrats and keep it up

your list sounds like you put a lot of thought into this, a sound plan to succeed

nothing to add other than props to you

Running is useless?

Tell that to every boxer who ever boxed a round of boxing.

Congratulations! I stopped drinking around 2017. Although I can easily say I was an alcoholic that's not the reason I stopped drinking. Initially I was navigating depression and failing financially so I cut drinking out of my budget. Eventually I found drinking was interfering with the things I love - art and video games =) So as time went by it became less of a crutch and more of a liability. Now I just have zero desire to drink at all and although I was a fulltime stoner, I've now been 100% sober for the past 2 months, which is kinda weird. I even cut out coffee =)

Good luck to you, you've identified the problem and know that if you stick with your plan you will eventually get to a point where you will not miss it at all and feel better.

Good for you!

I avoid refreshments these days. I cannot turn down wine with italian food, however. A bottle of cab with a veal parm dinner, muscles and calamari, now we’re talking.

As an alcoholic, I feel like my people are being bullied out of this thread. Can I get a Four Loco drinker up in here?!?!

I love my beer, but I’ve learned 1-2 just royally fucks your day. It keeps me from the gym. It makes me feel like shit: alcohol is poison. Don’t get me wrong… once a month at sunday dinner, I can put back some wine and feel good, but my monday is done. It depends on how many laughs are on the line.

Is he a boxer?

If he wants to ruin his knees, then yeah, running is great. And running at a steady pace for longer periods of time is even bad for the longetivity of the heart, according to newest analysis.

I believe in you


Wow thanks!
I expected poop emoji)

Also your story is inspiring


It's ChatGPT word in word
China is so China

That is a cool idea. Thanks

I exercise in the evening because my desire to drink is maximum
And exercise give me a relief

Run to wake-up so can't skip it)

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thank you! It's an inspiring story

Thanks! Good luck with you battle

That's what happened with my dad, he ran daily for about 15-20 years as far back as i can remember, if not before... he hit mid 50s and had to have both knees replaced, the only thing the doc could attribute it too was running constantly.

The strange thing is, now he's not running daily, he's always shocked at just how much healthier he feels.

Alcohol is life lubricant.

I don't trust anyone who can't drink... people who can't drink are the ones that can't control themselves. Alcohol, or "spirits", they help reveal your true character. If you don't give a fuck about anything or anyone, alcohol makes that worse. If you are a caring and deeply thoughtful person, alcohol produces art and ideals.

Alcoholics are some of the best people, in fact, I'd rather be friends with people who are functioning alcoholics that struggle to produce in life than sober people who simply do whatever they can to "fit in" and behave. Those are the fakest people... and they know it, too, because alcohol reveals who they are inside. Everything about people in AA is fake because booze brings out the real them.

Fake theory as usual.

An irrational human process indeed . . .

How do you know that it's walking that helps you with sleep most, and not the other things on the list like working out, running, eating well and reading?

I was already exercising and eating well but slept bad
I introduced walking later and got the results
Also waking up really early helps a lot
Like 5-6 am
And don't use bed for anything except sleep and sex
If you can't sleep for 20 minutes get up and come back when sleepy

There is no bigger love than 2 alcoholics. They have never seen each other before, but 5 minutest into conversation they "will die for each other". Typical night of a loser who has never had real friends and probably never will. Alcohol numbs reality and that's what you like about it. You become 6'4" modeling artist and every woman wants you. The pain comes in the morning when you look at one of those women and wonder if its your grandmother or just some random dude in a dress.

I was never an alcoholic before COVID, it all happened since about 2022 or so when I was banned from the gym.

Once I couldn't go to the gym anymore, I was fucked.

Once I get my car sold so I can afford new shoes and a track suit, I'm going to be back in the gym 5 days a week. After 3 years of no gym, I'm fucking finally ready to rebuild my life.

Not going to quit drinking totally, but the desire for booze naturally goes away when I'm more active and, you know, actually LIVING life rather than being too demoralized from living in Canada.

While you waiting for a new shoes you can try https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics
No equipment no cost
It's harder than a gym because environment doesn't push you but once you make it a routine it's great

You feel better about yourself and don't have to drink, so you feel even better about yourself

Buddy, I can't be stuck inside this leaky, mice-filled shack trying to exercise. I have to be able to live as a human being and be able to go to the gym. Hard to explain, but I became an alcoholic hermit after I was banned from society during COVID, and I never recovered and stopped caring about life. Caring about life again means I have to do things I used to do, like drive to the gym and have a real proper workout and have the social aspect of the gym, too.

Like if you stop caring about life, there will be things you don't realize will happen, it kind of snowballs, and next thing you know, you're an alcoholic and 3 years have gone by and you've lost all of your hobbies and activities you used to love and enjoy.

Totally agree... once you start doing things that make you feel GOOD without a buzz, life rocks again!

Good luck with your recovery... ODAAT.

Get fucked you vaxxed up piece of shit. Fuck you.

SO MANY MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE involved with every step of the COVID "vaccine", every fucking shitbag politician, every institution, every celebrity....

Imagine folding to that pressure from shit like this:

#11 - Focus your mind on making money with porn. Get the mind drunk on making money with pornography.

No matter how you went down it's always an option to get up
People recover from a massive brain injury

Go to AA, quit every wrong shit you do and start doing good shit instead
We all know what's right and what's wrong
It's just require discipline and routine to do it

You can do it

Thanks, man

You going to meeting? Working steps?

Congrats! One day without is a miracle for us all

I'm going to buy the last American alcohol at my gas station tonight!

I will go tomorrow first time (sober for 3 weeks)
I kinda ok but everyone say that it's important so I will go
Thanks!

You will be free when you understand that the last one you already drank
Keep trying and you will get it

I don't want to stop drinking. I just want to drink less.

The only reason I drink hard at the moment is because I'm living in substandard conditions and I need to sell my cars before I can go to the gym, and finish my 4th book!

Totally understand why some people can't drink though, there are people that from the moment their lips touch alcohol, they begin on a 3-4 day bender that destroys their lives. I used to know a guy who would start out by having 1-2 beers at dinner, and then by 10 AM the next day he was driving to the liquor store for when it opens, buying a 40oz of vodka, ordering coke and hookers and going for 2-3 more days. Buddy died in 2015 from a coke overdose. (fent)

waiting for my homemade whiskey

Misunderstood you
And I wish you a good luck with it!

That looks classy!

Thank you....

I went to a bunch of AA meetings YEARS ago... not for myself, but to support a friend who didn't want to go alone. Her and I went to like 10+ meetings and the stories the people told were COMPLETELY INSANE!!!

One guy I actually remember the day that he was talking about. In North Vancouver where I was living at the time, there was a car that had crashed into a bus stop or something and then kept driving, I can't remember if someone was hurt or not, but there was a high speed chase and it was seen by so many people, I was at Sailor Haggar's pub at the time and heard the tires of a car scream outside.... so I put down my drink and went to go look at the commotion... the cops chased this dude to a nearby apartment and he went to his place, and minutes later, was throwing giant piss jugs down at the cops and people like me watching, I even got sprayed, so gross! Anyways he jumped from the 3rd floor, landed on the grass, and started fighting the cops and was actually winning for a few seconds because he was COVERED in piss. He was at the AA meeting telling everyone about his incident that helped him get sober, and I remember watching him that day fight like 6+ cops and basically dummy a couple of them before they got him on the ground.... after he jumped from the 3rd floor to the ground... after he rained down dozens of piss jugs he had in his apartment.

So many stories of violence, drunk driving, spending literally $100+ per day on booze every day until they were broke and would steal booze... this all was before fentanyl got in all of the drugs, and many people there also were in NA.... because coke and booze go together like peanut butter and jam!

Fuck as a writer, I rather enjoyed listening to people at AA talk about the insanity of a true hardcore alcoholic. There was a woman there who said she put her boyfriend's dog in the oven to teach him a lesson about stealing her booze, and she vividly described the smell of her boyfriend's dog cooking away and the entire building caught on fire because she left it in there for 12+ hours on broil. Like the fucking people I heard from at AA basically were monsters when they would drink. Or the Italian guy who spent 20+ years in jail in Italy for running over fans of another football team just because he was mad at the loss of his team. No idea how he was let into Canada or if his story was true, but that guy had the craziest fucking shifty eyes I've ever seen. My own friend, her problem was that whenever she drank, she needed to mix booze with pills, and then she would go completely incoherent and lose her purse, phone, wake up in strange places, and no matter what she did, if booze touched her lips, she needed xanax I think, or benzos, I can't remember what her poison was. She got clean and the last I checked is now high up in a Canadian bank making 200k+ a year... I used to plow her so hard back when we were partying, good times, good times... but I was happy to be her only friend that would go with her to AA, and I'll never forget the fucking INSANE stories people told...

Now, as "a writer" can you learn English grammar and punctuation. Good start for your caliber of "writers".

One day at a time man. Meetings help a lot building a new network of sober friends. 👍

That's what spell checkers and AI is for, retard.

Thanks man!

Yeah
It's so destructive
And you never know if it happens to you (in general)

Shit! I forgot again the address of AA. I'll try to find it tomorrow . . .

Jesus H. tap-dancing Christ, the alcoholics in AI images have a nicer floor and couch than I do.

This is Fake
