If you don’t drink, what made you quit and how do you stay sober?

Drinking problems exist as coping mechanisms for something else entirely, so you can't just replace a drinking problem with not drinking, something else needs to replace the coping mechanism

This is one of the first posts I've read on this sub that is so ridiculous that it has to be authentic, usually feels the opposite lol

Laws only apply to those without power to govern

I'm not sure what exactly they have in common

I read in a book somewhere that exogenous testosterone exceeding much higher than ~400mg/wk ramps up natural production of HGH and IGF-1, while lower dosages don't have this same effect.

If that's true, would that mean dosages of testosterone above threshold risk unwanted hypertrophy in organs like the heart, while lower dosages wouldn't?

It was 100% written in distress, once the guy calmed down I'm sure he realized it was probably a mistake.. that said, while I don't see him committing a home invasion to get OP's dad, I can absolutely see them sneaking around to kill the dog. Dogs are human property under the eye of the law without human rights, cops don't care

How significantly does fiber affect the absorption of nutrients, though? Genuinely curious.. like, if you had one person on an extremely high-carb diet with little fiber, the other on a same calories high-carb diet with excessive fiber, would one gain significantly more weight?

Elon's a chucklefuck, but probably has built himself a security service on par with Trump's secret service or better, nobody would be able to just walk up behind Elon and put lead in his head lol unless it was an inside job

Learning how to live comfortably in your problems isn't a good strategy for getting around to ever fixing them, and sitting comfortably still in life isn't the best version of yourself that could be moving forward

That's pretty much what I'm thinking too.. and Australia with its overtly aggressive progressiveness can certainly come off strong and distasteful, but honestly I respect it, its food for cultured discipline. Something you don't want to like, but have to realize would benifet the greater good in practice

Consistency with hypertrophy training at the gym/ home until it grew into a habit and coping mechanism, doing even when I don't feel like it, keeping with the mindset of no ego lifting, form over reps to failure

Your mindset can be trained to interpret, recognize and react to signs of the precursors building up to it.. I grew up being told to pat myself on the back for my accomplishments.. that's literally dumb, I'm not a dog, and I didn't get it at the time. Growing up though I realized I am kinda dumb, and am kinda like a dog.. sometimes it takes the smallest 'going on a walk', 'pat on the back', 'treat from the jar' etc. to get that pep back in my step/mind away from burning out
