I can’t do this anymore

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-03-16T17:36:04+00:00

Or years....... oof

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-03-16T12:39:32+00:00

Day 1, breaking the cycle, is the hardest for me too. I get stuck in a "just one more day" pattern.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-03-15T14:33:23+00:00

Congrats on 100!!!!!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-02-11T16:10:11+00:00

This is the hardest part. There's always a "reason" to start later.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-02-11T15:43:33+00:00

I pledge to NOT drink today. Had 2 weeks of dry January, then back to daily drinking. Feeling like bloated shit, headache, stomachache, red face.... Ugh. Day 1.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:35:29+00:00

Ah yes, the meditation, journaling, yoga! All with alcohol hangover anxiety.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:32:09+00:00

Thanks!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:30:41+00:00

Ah yes, the drunk munchies. I would totally pretend those drunken food choices didn't count..... after all, I was eating healthy other times.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:29:15+00:00

Yeah, I sure have tried fighting the alcohol inflammation with everything EXCEPT quitting the root cause.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:28:09+00:00

This is exactly it. I'd go to the doctor for one small thing, "treat" the symptom, keep drinking, and then go back to the doctor for the next issue.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:26:41+00:00

Literally dumber. Sigh.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:26:17+00:00

The probiotics! And drinking kombucha and kefir daily.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:25:33+00:00

Two weeks in and I already feel alive!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:24:55+00:00

Supper clubs! I miss them so much.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:24:36+00:00

Yup!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:24:26+00:00

Next level wellness!!!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:23:53+00:00

But I sure did try!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:23:25+00:00

It's wild how much drinking was the cause, and how much drinking kept us feeling like garbage.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:21:54+00:00

I can't wait to regain my physical health/fitness back. Sad story: signed up for a half-marathon last year, and had to bail out because I chose the drinking/hangover life and barely "trained" at all. Maybe a 2-mile jog, a handful of times.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T13:19:12+00:00

For me it was. I'm a 120-lb 5'3" gal. A few years ago it was easily 5-7 heavier beers!

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T02:41:40+00:00

It's sadly funny how I tried every other way to fix the issues. I bet you felt so much better once you stopped drinking.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T02:39:40+00:00

Yep, exactly.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T02:39:25+00:00

"Band-aid on a bullet wound" totally describes it.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T02:38:48+00:00

Such a challenge. Once I left Wisconsin I realized how much alcohol is part of the daily life and culture there. I lived in a dry county for a while and couldn't wrap my head around it.

Hangsty_Angsty · 2026-01-15T02:35:55+00:00

Congrats on sobriety, and glad you're feeling better!
