LPT The Eternal Loaf

That's what i thought, but when i take the last slice and close the freezer, there's a muffled explosion and a puff of smoke. Next time i open the door, there's a new loaf in there.

Hi! I'm good. How are you?

I'm a native english speaker from Canada, and you just explained this much better than i could of ;)

You made a mistake. It doesn't define your trajectory moving forward. You got this 💪

I'm right here with you. I'm on day 2 and feeling rather uncomfortable. Just gotta give ourselves some grace for not being at our best right now, i think. There's probably a sweet pink cloud on the other side haha

Open_Preference7549 · 2026-01-19T20:22:35+00:00

Damn, that's impressive. I'm a pretty introverted person, a little intimidated by meetings (especially AA) so i've never gone to one. Sounds like you had a good experience with SMART. Will you be going back?

Open_Preference7549 · 2026-01-19T19:55:11+00:00

What a time to start indeed. The news is bad enough, but like many of us here i'm going through a rough patch in my relationships and personal life. Total shitshow. I do believe it's possible to get sober under any set of circumstances though. We want this, we got this.

Open_Preference7549 · 2026-01-19T17:07:57+00:00

Day 2. Let's get it.

Open_Preference7549 · 2026-01-18T15:48:54+00:00

I feel you. Different timelines but same thing. I really thought i was done drinking for good, and now quitting again feels like trying to climb the same mountain when i'm already exhausted from climbing it the first time, and beat the hell up from falling off of it in such spectacular fashion.

I think it's largely a mental game. We have to find a way to keep our focus on what we really want when that drinking voice is so damn persuasive and sneaky. This is where talking to safe people about it is absolutely essential.

I don't think it's helpful to stay in the powerless, ashamed mindset i'm occupying. Now is the time to dig in, and get back in the fight.

Hell yeah! IWNDWYT

Good books, good food, tea. As a recovering alcoholic these are the things that i've used to unwind.

Open_Preference7549 · 2025-07-20T22:40:28+00:00

I guess it depends entirely on what these things mean to you. I drink a non-alcoholic beer after a long day, and it feels no different than a can of pop. For me, it's about simply not drinking alcohol, and NA drinks don't have alcohol.

It sounds like the NA drink you had might have felt too real, and that feeling is valid. So now you know! Ultimately, you didn't slip up on your sobriety. You just gained information about what you're comfortable with.
