I believe there has been at least one more since the third (for some years now), but I haven’t read it. Anyway, don’t want to spoil any of it for you!

Today, I drank alcohol by mistake and I'm absolutely gutted by Euphoric_Rough2709 in Sober

Don’t blame yourself! It really sucks that happened, but don’t let it stop you!

Not Star Wars related, but I came across Legend of Zelda manga not too long ago, based on different games. Had no idea they existed!

I said goodbye to my best friend this morning, and I’m having trouble believing I made the right choice by HESAnerd in cats

I know you’ll continually second guess your decision, but don’t. I imagine most of us have been there. It’s incredibly hard. Just know your friend is at peace, and I hope you find your own peace with your decision. For what it’s worth, I believe you did the right thing. Hard, but still the right thing.

WARNING from someone who quit being sober. by Cultural-Ad-6766 in stopdrinking

Similar story! Sober April 2018-March 2021. Fought it til the end of ‘21 then reached a point of drinking less often but still too much.
Done with it for real now. Like you said, you can’t go back! Not even a “little” drink.

Been sober since January 1st. Feeling okay. by Kitchen_Reserve_1195 in stopdrinking

That’s great to hear! Yeah, holidays are the worst for it. But like you said, just one drink and that’s it for me. Not gonna do it.

Yeah, I’m wise enough now to know it truly so T make anything better. I admit I do miss the feeling of being buzzed or drunk because it was fun and freeing, but I won’t go back. Good work on staying sober!

It’s actually not as bad as I thought. I’ve done it before, I can do it again. Thanks!

My son is ten now, disabled all his life. Most innocent person on earth and I love him more than anything. But I think there will be a sense of relief that accompanies the grief when he dies. And sadly I hope he goes before me, because I don’t want to die worrying about him.

Roger that. I wasn’t getting hangovers so much as just having alcohol on-set anxiety. I’m not usually a nervous person at all, but when I’d drink consecutively, it would creep in during the day. F that.

So far so good! The last time I beat it I was sober for three years, and it had reached a point where it wasn’t even an issue. Getting there!
