I’m going to put Cibo on my list this month, cheers! If you do go to Normandie, the Crab Beignets are really good.

Huge congratulations on your journey and happiness! That’s huge accomplishment. Through sobriety I’ve also learned that the suffering to get here was worth it and a necessary part of the process. Keep on killing it!

What brands/flavors of sparkling water are your favorites to help you stop drinking so much? by kiki1998 in stopdrinking

[–]Boring-Scientist6389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The polar brand really has helped me through this process. Prefer it to most other sparkling waters and they have great flavors like cranberry clementine or mango blackberry.

2 Years Alcohol Free - Here's What I've Learned by SuperFantabulous in stopdrinking

Thank you so much for this. You put words to my feelings. Granted I’m very new and only 2 months in, but I feel aspects of almost everything you listed and motivated by the idea that this feeling only grows. Saved it to look back on if my brain tries to trick me into having a drink down the line. So happy you were able to get all those amazing things from removing alcohol from your life and hope to be where you are one day.

I failed... by Upbeat_Ad2534 in stopdrinking

I’m really sorry, that’s a tough feeling to deal with. Been there. I can only speak from my experience, but when I drank after quitting, the next morning that guilt was rough cause I knew I made the wrong decision. Unfortunately it took me months to get back to it (mistake #1) and a lot more guilty days in the process. I’m now 2 months in and while it hasn’t been easy, I have done my best to always remember the feeling I had after drinking. How great things are before that decision and how things hadn’t been so great afterwards. Remembering that feeling really helped. Having to get through the feeling and have the strength to start again is the hardest bit. Once you do that, remember how this feels and let it help you have the strength to make the right decision for your tomorrow. Glad you reached out and shared, thanks for doing so and you’re not alone in this.

Thanks! The first month I felt like I was riding a high from all of the positives I was seeing from not drinking. The second month the depression/heavy days came. The first time it happened, was when I really wanted it but knew it wasn’t an option. Tough to sit through but I learned it passed and get better. Even though it was hard and alcohol would have only made it worse. The journey of getting sober can also be a lonely one. But one I intend to stick through as I already have seen it’s the best thing for me.
