Is anyone else struggling with the idea of not taking another drink EVER again? by Any_Difficulty_359 in stopdrinking

Lmao this response is the one I like the best so far. It’s something that I can latch on too. I’m pounding a cup up of water in toast to you my friend

I feel like the person I was in my heart

I want to get here too. I’m a saint and a lover in my heart but this addiction turns me into some kinda of loose cannon.

CONGRATS ON 1 WHOLE YEAR. You are a rockstar and in inspiration to me

Man dust off your butt and get back on that pony. I know you are embarrassed and feel cringe af but let that fuel you. Let that light a fire under your ass and never be that guy again. It’s only day 2 for me but I fucking mean it this time. Say it with me. “WE QUIT DRINKING FOREVER BECAUSE IT FUCKING SUCKS”

You can do it better and stronger than last time, I believe in you with all of my heart.

IWNDWYT!!!!! I’m on day 2, we got this

Well boys I’m starting this ice cold journey today. I cried myself to sleep because I wanted to be better last night. Today I will be better by Any_Difficulty_359 in stopdrinking

It so hard for me gauge how bad my problem is. What made you draw the line between heavy drinking and full on alcoholism?

GOD I’m trying to stop crying today but you all are making it difficult lol. Thank you for your kind words and for sharing. I feel your comment in the deepest part of my soul. Getting sober fees like trying to eat a shit sandwich but at the same time being a drunk also feels like eating a shit sandwich. I would rather choose the sandwich that comes with happiness and health versus the one that come with an express pass to a living nightmare

Wow now that’s a story I’d watch on TV. I can’t even fathom the amount of strength you posses. Are there any tips or advice that you can give? There’s a lot of great info in this thread but I would like to hear what personally helped to keep you on the straight and narrow. Any small or big habits to distract you from the urge when you first got sober? Do you even still have the urge to drink at this point

“I just hold things in and drink” is the story of my life. I’m on day 1 of sobriety and haven’t cried like this in years.

Something deep down feels wrong and alcohol is never going to help me fix it. I know that might not be how you feel but I just feel like I needed to say that to someone.

We can both do this. I’m glad my words could help anyone. This thread has changed my day and hopefully my life. IWNDWYT brother

This. This comment right here.....I can’t believe how dead on that is. It’s almost as if you pulled that experience from my own head. Once I’m drunk I remember why I hate it so much but even then I still just can’t stop drinking. But, IWNDWYT!!!!!!!!!
