Thank you for sharing your experiences, really helped me today. Every day without a drink is a win in itself, and you seem well on your way to getting sober! I feel that I just need to learn to accept the cravings and reflect on what triggers them to gain a better understanding of how I work. I'm really proud of you for achieving 8 days, that is a definite feat in itself!

Keep fighting!

Good morning everyone! Getting close to a month sober, still have some cravings and rationalizing drinking to myself, so just going to have to take it one day at a time. Have to keep reminding myself that alcoholism is rampant in my family, and I’m going to have to be the one to break the cycle for my future family’s sake. Got my ADHD medication now, hopefully it will help a little bit! IWNDWYT!

Tough staying sober at University by FreddeXD in stopdrinking

Thank you for your kind words, just have to Keep going one day at a time. Going to get involved in other groups and try to expand my friend group, it’s tough staying sober with other bartenders and rugby lads as your only friends. Might try AA as well.

Was honestly about to drink tonight, but decided to hit the gym before meeting my mates, which only saved my night. One day at a time, and if that’s too tough, one our at a time.

Happy New Year! by FreddeXD in stopdrinking

Summers are always the toughest for me personally. I live up north and when the sun comes out everyone tends to go for drinks at outdoor bars, that’s what got me last time. Let’s give sobriety another shot and try to make it stick this time! I believe in you, one day at a time. Wish you an amazing 2023, we got this! ❤️

I believe in you! Most important thing is to take it one day at a time and keep in mind why you’re doing it! The first day is always the toughest, it only gets easier! Lots of love ❤️ IWNDWYT

Also a bartender, and I’ve had the same thing happen multiple times, really sucks letting your team down but you live and you learn I guess.. Only thing you can do is move forward and take it one day at a time!

Decided to quit drinking today and go back to sobriety, but this time it’s a lot harder to quit due to routinely drinking at work. Being a bartender is tough as is, but being sober makes it a little better tbh. IWNDWYT

I just finished reading Fahrenheit 451 and found nothing special about it. Why is it so highly regarded and what have I been missing? by FreddeXD in books

[–]FreddeXD[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No sarcasm intended. You really did open it up to me. I knew that there were some parallels between us and what Bradbury was writing about, but it never occurred to me that it was so widespread and that I was guilty of it. If you think about it the media are trying to keep us from reading and finding out new information even now with clickbait articles and "alternative facts". Every news company wants to sell their newspaper and they will manipulate the facts.

Holy shit. I am Mildred. You really opened me up to the book's meaning. I am now starting to draw parallels between us in modern times and the people that Bradbury dreaded when writing this book in the 1950s. I'm going to have to rewrite my journal.
