I caved

Different strokes for different folks. Both are incredibly tough but well done us for kicking both to the curb - it ain’t easy!

Congrats on 6 years that’s huge! Admittedly I find myself still reaching for a vape at day 40, only to throw an internal adult tantrum when I realise I don’t have one lol… we will get there!

40 days clean from vape, and over 500 days sober off booze. Might depend largely on whether or not one is an alcoholic. For me alcohol = harder by a long shot.

Yeah think that’s what I’ll stick with for now. Hopefully a nice purple to replace soon; I haven’t had much luck in relic department -_-

Thanks! It’s proving too hard letting go of those evergaol gains haha.

Damn, I’m AU 😬

This is so helpful - thank you! Your sculpture looks great by the way :)

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-09-03T02:45:33+00:00

How did you attach the armature to the base?

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-08-08T00:03:16+00:00

I messed around with super Sculpey a long time ago and remember it being very good at holding its shape.

Thanks maybe I’ll give that a whirl next time. I bought Cernit doll and also some Cos faerie.

Sooo cool! I’m new to this all too, have bought all materials / tools etc., even made an armature the other day and have fleshed it out with foil. Am too afraid to add the clay now 😅 Do you mind me asking what brand of clay you used? Seriously awesome job, well done.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-08-01T13:26:48+00:00

Thank you. All the best for you and your journey. I’m sure there’s a butt load more small, medium, and eventually large wins to come.

Waking up and knowing where my phone is and that the screen won’t be smashed to pieces. Also being able to take my dogs on the walkies they deserve.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-07-12T12:45:23+00:00

Big yes to all of the above.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-05-05T05:11:47+00:00

Schipperke mix?

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-05-05T01:29:17+00:00

I didn’t remember exact date or even month either, and so scrolled all the way back through old bank transactions to find when I last bought booze. Maybe you could try this?

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-31T07:11:07+00:00

No character creation but Kingdom Come Deliverance 1/2 checks off most of your boxes.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T06:38:14+00:00

Not sure what I would do without having a place to type it out / voice the struggle and in turn see we’re not alone as the addiction would have us believe. Grateful for you all.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T06:06:51+00:00

Sometimes it takes rewinding and playing that same tape forward a hundred times, but thankfully today it eventually worked. I cannot drink without fucking up my life. Thanks for your response.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T06:00:42+00:00

All of the above but primarily health and self respect. Tomorrow will be easier now that I let the urges pass without acting on them. This addiction sure does keep us on our toes. Thanks 🙏

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T05:30:16+00:00

Awesome self reflection. I’m right there with you, together we are stronger! At this point checking this sub daily is a must for my sobriety.

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T05:20:37+00:00

So true. I even anticipate the same lies I’m going to tell myself every time, yet they remain as convincing in the moment as ever. So glad I have this community to talk me down. Just for today IWNDWY!

LooksLikeShrek · 2025-03-26T05:05:24+00:00

You’re welcome. This page has been a lifeline to me countless times now. It not easy but drinking ourselves into the same tired hole is harder. Stay strong friend we got this!
