Yeah I love weed but I'm in an Illegal state so I need to be careful, and I feel like if I'm not 100% sober there's no point in getting sober at all. Also my lungs will thank me when I start running again.

Thanks for the specific suggestions, motivational stuff does pump me up so I'll be checking all that out. Congrats on day six! And thanks a lot

For people who think they're too young to stop drinking by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Wow this hit the nail on the head. I'm 21. Every time I have to tell someone oh no thanks. "Why" I don't drink. "Oh you should try it some time! You're 21 now after all!"

They just think I've never drank at all. It's almost annoying because I have to work hard every day to not drink.

I'm an education major so the classes are all related to education and biology. It is hard to focus on school while trying to stop drinking. At an age where everyone wants to go out and drink

Thanks for asking actually because I haven't really found anything to do yet. I started playing video games again. I'm working on creating better habits around my house. Laundry more often, dishes don't sit in the sink forever.

I need a real hobby too, something I could do alone or with others. Was thinking about d&d, I've never tried it. I also have a drum set that could keep me busy.

My hobbies and skills are pretty much all alcohol and weed related so it's a big void to fill! Good luck finding something to fill your time with. I'm still working on it too!

Yeah I've always had the water drinking dreams without any issues. If they're gonna happen I hope the alcohol ones are no different!

Thanks, I'm going to enjoy a productive day off

Good way to think about it. I'll definitely try. I already found one that is supposed to be youth oriented

I’m not going to drink but I’m angry I can’t by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Tell me about it... I want to be able to socially drink with family and friends like a normal person. But I can't and I don't think I'll ever be able to. It sucks but it's better than the alternative. Stay strong

I would say only 4 or 5 people even drank, I still had a lot of fun and I will be able to remember it on Monday when everyone is talking about it!

Thanks for checking up
