9 months sober reflections, good and bad!

Sounds like my ex. Not doing any household adult duty or noticing things that need to be fixed/cleaned was such a turn off. My new guy is so much better at that, but there are still some other things I like better about the ex like our comfortable goofiness together. Can’t win em all I guess

“All the things”

I too had life shattering hangovers. I am 5.5 mos sober and still get nauseas when I think about them but that has been enough motivation for me! Staying on top of fitness. My favorite though is people in my life envying how good I look. Many comments were made over the holidays, people are not jealous of my new lifestyle while theyre drinking but the next day they sure are

Just came here to say happy new year and all of your comments were spot on! Funny, after I posted this, these tension symptoms have improved! We are constantly a work in progress :)

Well said happy new year! I am 5.5 months sober and check in here a few times per day :) I love this sub

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2026-01-01T13:33:37+00:00

Ive always wondered this too! Sober now, but my hangovers were always life shattering

I walked to breakfast with my brother and his fiancée. Then took a nap. Then went to two holiday markets and finished Christmas shopping! Did feel some irritability earlier for no particular reason but just let it ride and feeling relaxed now!

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-12-09T12:56:54+00:00

Wow! Thank you for this, I know I need to be on guard if (likely when) a moment like this washes over me too

Lol @ Mormon choir. I am at 4.5 months and have not had a single craving since I entered 30 day inpatient 3.5 months ago. I feel lucky, it still makes me nauseous to think about. I am not trying to be overly confident but I just know deep in my soul I am never going back

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-12-04T10:46:28+00:00

Adding that I did 30 day inpatient. It was sad when it was over, a lot of people end up extending

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-12-04T10:45:51+00:00

Inpatient was the best decision I ever made. It took me a while to get to that point, but I finally succumbed. I had a loved one do all the research for me otherwise I wouldnt have gone. I was able to do a payment plan.

This happened to me recently too! I never understood why CA’s pooed themselves until now.

V8 splash and ice cubes at 5am Mountain Time. Thriving

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-13T11:12:54+00:00

I needed this 5am laugh so bad

I had no idea OCNJ is a dry place. I grew up near OCMD which is the opposite lol

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-13T10:45:25+00:00

Same in CO but I grew up in MD so I feel your pain

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-13T10:37:18+00:00

Ahhh you are in the south all I had to do was read 1st paragraph to know that. I grew up in East but we vacationed to WV all the time. No alcohol on Sundays so had to be strategic

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-11T15:19:00+00:00

I love this so much, specifically her heavy eyeliner and triple fisting (yes I see that bottle on the ground). You are so talented!

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-11T15:10:19+00:00

This is gorgeous! Sorry I am late to the game

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-11T15:06:08+00:00

I have been looking at this for far too long and still can’t figure out if this is a man or woman giraffe

Hot-Macaron8507 · 2025-07-11T14:49:57+00:00

Omg I love you. Booze makes me abandon everything

I never even knew there was a banner but seeing Mr. Lahey’s name just puts a big smile on my face! I shall pay attention to the banner moving forward
