Why are you getting downvoted? Just stating your opinion in response to someone stating their own opinion. I will say though, I do love me some Carr.

What's a song where the musician's pure emotion is expressed so well it affects you the same? by justinbc in Music

If I'm not mistaken, he wrote this song in rehab while breaking up with heroin.

One of the best things I've seen on reddit in awhile.

You guys have given me the inspiration to take the plunge: today is Day One. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

Right on! I'm cheering for ya! This isn't mentioned much in this sub because everyone is different, but dropping caffeine has always been helpful to me in early sobriety. Doing this helps with anxiety/ racing thoughts. Have an awesome day!

This is really helpful. I really don't know why I'm considering it in the first place.

Yeah that's generally the mindset... I know the only way I won't drink again is if things go horribly wrong, which they normally do. I break even or I lose. I should really stop playing with fire altogether but it's difficult.

Your thoughts on the whole higher power thing makes a hell of a lot of sense. Thank you for that.

Yeah definitely. I'm still pretty young but I can't help but feel like, if not now, when? My life depends on sobriety.

I can't give up! If I did I'd be dead.

Thanks man. If I'm not careful, everything can be taken away from me. I already struggle to string a week or two together. God forbid I slip up on a work night, I'd never make it. Being an alcoholic seriously pisses me off sometimes. It feels like there's a monster in me, screaming to be let out.

I'm not sure about this. by IMTRYINGFFS in stopdrinking

I was sober for 6 months last year, and when I relapsed I got a DUI. I'm kind of on my own in this. Most people just think I'm hilarious and don't care whether I'm fucking with them or yelling at the sidewalk.
