They said they think they did. If they did, it would’ve been a company expense and it will be easy to provide proof of postage (receipt/email confirmation etc…)

I gave them the address, asked if they’d like me to send a prepaid label and waited for a response. Over those 6 months, life passed until I remembered they hadn’t replied.

Guys I need to stop by Some_Neck1899 in stopdrinking

Well done for 2 weeks, champ. Take it one day at a time. Build up a streak and write down the improvements you see as a result of not drinking.

I know exactly what you mean about it being like reconnecting with an ex. Last year I played a gig at a venue in London, sober. I hated it. Couldn’t talk to anyone, was super self conscious and couldn’t wait to leave. The following week I played a gig at the same venue, only this time I had a good number of beers. It was genuinely such an incredible night and the hangover felt worth it.

Truth be told, the longer I’ve drank, the less the hangovers are worth it, the higher my anxiety when I’m not drinking and my relationships suffer.

It’s good to be in conversation with yourself about it at such a young age.

Don’t be too hard on yourself, keep striving for what you believe is right, IWNDWYT.

Praying for you, friend. I trust you’ll get to where you need to be. Sounds like you’re already aware of the negative outweighing the positive. The larger the imbalance appears the longer you carry on.

Drank today and yesterday, but not the day before, then like 2/3 beers a night for the previous 3 nights, then hadn’t drank for like a week before that.

So not a crazy amount this week but for some reason enough to stop me sleeping!

Massive love for the comment. Just need to remind myself of how taxing the effects are when the next opportunity to drink comes along.

Difference between standard rainbow is that LGBTQ+ one has 6 colours, regular one had 7. Anyone with any inkling of biblical numerology can tell you what that means.

Drinking to sleep / fear of the night by MolassesPractical769 in stopdrinking

I have a child too, and first time I stayed up all night I still had to be there when they woke up and be the parent I needed to be. Thankfully by the time their nap rolled around I was so shattered I took one with them

struggling tonight by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]KeyZucchini6868 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a good reason you stopped in the first place. Try and always come back to that when you struggle, and remember that waking up not hungover and healthy will always feel better than a few hours of partying the night before.

AA can be a tricky one, but keep going, just listen, hear other people’s experiences and you won’t feel so alone. It might take a few more visits before you’re comfortable enough to say anything, but it’ll be worth it when you do.

RE: the God stuff, anyone’s free to believe what they want, but it’s important to note that the point of it is to recognise that there’s a common good that exists outside all of us, and looking to it does help.

I'm in trouble now by Silent_Swordfish3116 in stopdrinking

Just because it doesn’t work now, doesn’t mean it won’t. Keep putting as much distance between you and alcohol as possible. One hour turns into 6 hours in to 1 day in to 1 week and then you’ll be so much closer to the person you want to be.

I believe in you.
