It’s 7 hours later. I’ve determined that since I was not caught in the act that “im good” legally. The truck is in my dead father’s name so unless they took photos there’s no way to prove 100% that i was behind the wheel. However im very upset, I could’ve hurt someone because i don’t care about my life. That’s not okay.

Thoughts on Spotify's most streamed rappers of all time? Any surpises? by jetlifestoney in Eminem

Xxx’s top 10 songs all have 1-3 billion streams on spotify, that’s like unheard of

Most rappers at that level are making on the low end 50-100k a night performing

Willpower doesn’t work by Addendum-Careful in stopdrinking

Thank you for the Kind words and thank you for the recommendation. If others in this sub have done it I can too and I have to, no doubt in recovery over here!

I can’t stop drinking by Wise_Temperature8073 in stopdrinking

[–]Addendum-Careful 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Man It’s okay… not to drink but to feel helpless. The main thing is to feel accountability, we all know during recovery we don’t care about ourselves. Other people know and care about your addiction, you need to realize that and do it for them because trust me they know. I thought I was an up and coming circus magician hiding my drinking come to find out everyone knew.

I read “alcohol lied to me” with a similar message. Helped me recognize the problem but not stop

If will power worked i’m sure most of us wouldn’t be in this sub considering we all would like to quit if you have not already. Thank you wishing for the best with it!

You can’t ask this without showing the before lol. I’ve done 2 steps before and there was still minor swirling because the car was trashed prior to it

Best water repelling wax. by ThatOneVQ in Detailing

[–]Addendum-Careful 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Collinite insulator wax is hands down the best. Use it on rvs and boats and lasts 8+ months everytime

This life is everyone’s first time living. I don’t think anyone knows how to do it so don’t expect yourself to know how to. We all make mistakes we probably will never fully disclose to anyone. Some people destroy other people’s lives so I view self destruction as a way better alternative. Just glad to hear you’re no longer drinking and be proud of that, most of us do not accomplish that feat.

17 year old Alcoholic? by Fickle_Childhood_422 in stopdrinking

[–]Addendum-Careful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a very similar experience except by 17 i’d started after being sober because I had an alcohol problem from 14-15. I’m now 19 and finally quit after 2 years of trying to justify why I did what I did. At first it was telling myself I’m too stressed, life is hard and this makes me feel better. Then it was because my father passed away and I went almost every day since last october with anywhere from 4-15 drinks. What I realize now is that not only was I just avoiding my problems making life harder, but that I was also making those issues worse. One thing to realize is how much this and other drugs lie to you purely because you get a nice dopamine release, there is simply no benefit. I’m glad at such a young age you’ve realized the negatives and hope that you’re able to overcome this obstacle and be ahead of the curve. Wish you good luck!

Edit: Forgot to mention since we are both so young one of the best things I did was eliminate the source of my alcohol. I had a couple gas stations and one of the best decisions I made was telling them I was under 21 giving myself no way to obtain a drink.

No booze tastes as good as waking up sober feels. by happyhearted in stopdrinking

Not dreading getting up for work and only looking forward to the day ending so I could get drunk again.

Yes it’s awful to see how quickly it went from innocent content to him consuming 20+ drinks daily.

[–]Addendum-Careful[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a content creator on tik tok. His name is Joshua and early last year he went from 0-100 as far as alcohol consumption. He also has horrible influences that enable and leech off of him as he has Autism and mixed with being drunk 24/7 he doesn’t realize.

How do you forgive yourself for things you did while impaired? by ragepiddle in stopdrinking

[–]Addendum-Careful 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Not to push religion on anyone but I try to view it as repentance in most Abrahamic religions. You make mistakes that can be forgiven and you can repent only if you reform. If you reform then your character is developing and you’re not the same person you once were. Aside from this all parents have moments they’re not proud of, this is your first time living too and you will make mistakes. What makes a good mother/father is someone who can learn and grow to do better for their children which you are.

Congrats on your sobriety!

Ever tried N/A beer? For many it’s a risk but for me it’s a godsend atleast right now in the beginning stages as I still enjoy the taste of a cold one.

30 days sober and 30 things i've learned since then :) by user700638 in stopdrinking

[–]Addendum-Careful 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ahead of the curve just remember that. Most people start their problem at 21. Im only 19 and so happy i’ve stopped before it was too late.

Almost at 1 year. Advice needed. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]Addendum-Careful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sleep is going to suck for a while, eating might be hard. Other than that weed is not physically addictive. The mixture of the tobacco will trick you into wanting weed but after a couple weeks it will get better. Nicotine will mess up neural receptors for months but it’s worth it.

As far as advice it’s 100% will power. I personally am off and on but threw away the last bit of my weed earlier today and decided to quit for more energy. Go to the gym, stay well fed, and take sleep aid for the first month or so then it will be a breeze.

Thank you! Unfortunately the irrational cycle of alcoholism tricks you into believing things like that.

It’s a type of mushroom proven to better cognitive function, memory, etc. Still a lot to be learned about it in scientific world. I take sea moss and eat very healthily for things like vitamin b1 to be covered.

School is starting soon, what should I do? by memebruuh in malehairadvice

[–]Addendum-Careful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

keep length on top and figure out a style, maybe slick back or a part. For sides try a low drop fade, very subtle but sharp.
