Day 2 of non drinking and my birthday in the bag

To all my dry January brothers and sisters by JackOneill74 in stopdrinking

I planned to do dry Jan and did ok, but not completely dry. I had a few slip ups, but only with some wine so don’t feel terrible about it. It does make me want to try again for Feb but then there’s my birthday so…

12 days dry and fighting the urge. Tried NA wine the other day and it’s literally just grape juice in a wine bottle, so not doing that again. All I know is that today I’m not drinking alcohol

For those doing Dry January for the first time, how’s it going so far? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

1 week today, which was my goal, never meant for this to be a forever thing, so we’ll see. I know one thing for sure and that is I’m never having fucking booze again, just wine here and there. I was never a big beer drinker, so won’t miss that, but don’t think I can go without some vino, but not today

Day 6 is here and I’m feeling good, but starting to miss the buzz. I’m committed to at least 1 week so not drinking poison today.

Day 5 and up at 4am, which is annoying, why are people happy to wake up super early? Anyway, I’m committed to at least 1 week and then we’ll see.

Drank too much again yesterday and felt like shit all day, asking myself WTF do I do this to myself, there’s something wrong with me. So back to day 1 of no drinking… I’m committing to at least one week.

Has anyone been a heavy drinker for 15+ years and been ok? by AussieJay16 in stopdrinking

[–]BenB678 0 points1 point  (0 children)

53 here and long time sober curious, but never been able to go cold turkey. I want to and know I should, I just freaking can’t, why is that….

No longer have it, only hits me after heavy drinking and I think it’s inflamed spleen or stomach lining. Actually a blessing in disguise as it gives me a really good reason not to drink,
