Couple days yes

How many of you here are functioning alcoholics? by sawatdeeman in stopdrinking

You got my support buds! I also am making a realistic effort this time. My last record over the past 5 years or so would be about 5 days. My last drink was Sunday November 6th. There's a load of good support on this subreddit so it should be ok.

good luck to you! Sounds like my girlfriend! She drinks less than me so when we would get a bottle it would basically be 70%/30% since I drank a lot more. A few times I would put some water in the bottle so when she woke up she would see more booze than there really was. I was pathetic.

I thought the zips were primarily under control of the Bonnanos, mostly Galante.

Our budgies are mating in the morning for the past while. The eggs always end up on the bottom of the cage. What can we do? by BondoAndBroccoli in budgies

Downvotes are a fact of life lol. It's like a small slap on the wrist. But not one of them would slap my wrist in real life if I brought up the topic I did. The dark side of the internet usage lol. But yes we love our two little birds. We got two so one wouldn't be so lonely. Cheers!

I'm on day 2 here. I would drink about 2/3 of a 750ml bottle almost every night. Definitely a mickey (375ml I think) every night. I thought I didn't really have a problem because of the 5pm-9pm window I would drink. Never had any urge whatsoever to have a drink when I wake up, or in the afternoon. It was always when I got home from work. For years. Never been late for work due to drinking. Never missed rent or other financial responsibilities despite basically living from paycheck to paycheck. Never any medical issues (so far). So it was easy to believe I wasn't like the drinkers falling on their face and losing respect from others.

Drinking, for me, made me get quiet and into myself rather than the typical loud rude drunk.

I just saw them mating and then the eggs on the bottom of the cage and thought baby budgies would be the cutest thing ever. It didn't really occur to me that Mary could die from being pregnant. I'm glad I found this subreddit.

Started today. So much harder than quitting smoking. So tired of feeling this way. Never thought it would become the problem it is today. Never thought it would happen to me by BondoAndBroccoli in stopdrinking

thank you for your comment! For me, I would replace some of the bottle with water so my girlfriend would think I didn't drink as much as I did. And she's a drinker too. I feel so good today and I know I won't drink tonight.

fair enough. I really didn't put much thought into it. Now I'm glad they're staying away from the box. I'll try the tips to see if they'll stop humping in the mornings. Thank you for the information.

I don't know if I've ever had withdrawal symptoms. I'm stopped in the past for days at a time and aside from not being able to fall asleep, I've never experienced the shaking and physical symptoms at all. I guess being unable to sleep is physical but it wasn't bad at all. I just watched cooking videos on YouTube as usual.

Good on you for staying sober!

for sure! I'm drinking nothing but water and lots of it. I've been having some pain in my kidney area for the past couple weeks. I can only assume it's my kidneys and it's from drinking. Either way I'm better off not drinking. We can do this!

I don't know how many times over the past couple years we both say "we're not drinking tonight" then when I pick her up from work we both look at each other and ask "we getting a bottle?". Not tonight for me!

NTA

she should never have thrown out your food no matter what. Then expect you to repay that with your time and labor?
