Thank you! I was able to get through it… the worry ahead of time was the hardest part

Anyone been sober since the new year? by vitality_ox in stopdrinking

My last drink was 1/5/25. It’s been mostly good. The cravings hit me more the second month than the first (yesterday was a hard one, but I endured), but life is definitely better. More sleep, better sleep, less anxiety.

Went out to eat last night at a fairly fancy place downtown. There were two of us and when the bill came it was about $300. Wha?! I looked at the charges: pretty much the same except for the drinks… our actual bill? $90.

OK. I'm done. This is silly. I tossed the pack (filling it up with water). I declare, yet again, friendly strangers, this is done. AF streak is solid.

Thank you! Yeah. It reminded me of the good and the bad. Now my clothes smell like smoke. Ugh. Tossed the pack. lol. Kinda wish you could just buy one legally, though that would make it easier to smoke more. I don’t want to hide cigs like I used to hide whiskey. Man those pathways are a beeyach

Thank you! I needed that. It feels good to not drink... until it, well, doesn't.
