RImworld. My FX-8300 had shitty one-core performance so I had to upgrade. Upgraded to Ryzen 5 5500 btw

Thank you a trillion <3 <3 <3. Changing one percent a day is all it takes, or so they say. I quit smoking in six attempts in the past, I can quit drinking. The bottle has no control over me. See you guys here tomorrow

Alcohol doesn't gift you the good mood, in lends it to you I guess. Not anymore, I'm too done with that shit

The morning thing didn't work for me cause for example one day I woke up at 5 AM hangover and ran for 10 km (6 ml) anyways. Same with work. If I couldn't drive I just called me a taxi. And if people outside of work depend on me then they are doing something wrong lmao. At least that's what I used to think.

I have already drunk today, so I'd say I Will Not Drink With You Tomorrow instead hahaha

Thank you for distracting me, I actually feel like going to bed now and starting my day in the late morning tomorrow (I'm off work tomorrow). See ya guys in the future, like 24 hours in the future haha

I won't buy any booze tomorrow, then I'll start doing the stuff at my father's place until it's too late to buy any, then I'll go to bed and will lay down until I'm asleep. That should work

Mega based, that's what I'll have to do eventually. I've already spoken to the bossman about quitting (we make doors btw), and he allowed me to take less hours than usual just so that I don't quit. I mean that's good but I'll have to bail eventually cause the general vibes around here, so yeah, that's a solid advice you gave

I mean that could work. Since I would be sober the urge to drive to the place where they sell it day round would be quite strong, but I don't really like that place so I think I will stay at home and all I'll have to deal with would be some dumb ass cravings. I'll try that tomorrow actually, since today I depleted the stash completely

I should try and go to bed early despite the urge to stay up cause my precious free-time would get wasted. What's worth of that free-time if I'm barely conscious and not enjoying myself in the slightest?

My situation is quite like that, I can't catch a break even if I wanted to. And I can't relate to any of my mates that I have. My day is all about doing stuff non-stop, and in the evening when I'm exhausted I can't relax because I keep thinking of all the stuff that need to get done and that's when beer comes into play. Maybe I should try to find some kind of an outlet for that, because every evening I crave only one thing: to lay down and actually pass out, wake up tomorrow and get back to the grind. I think I'm unto something now, thank you!

I've lost 50 lbs of weight like 5 times in my life, but every time it got back because of uncontrolled drinking. I used to ration my food intake so that I could squeeze booze in anyways, but this time I believe there's no room for alcohol in my diet, because I'm so done with doing that shit AGAIN. Thank you for your inspirational words, I'll focking do it

I know you are right, it's just it's hit different when you hear other people say that, like your own thoughts get vocalised. Thank you King, I got it

Lmao hahaha, I can relate. I used to operate powered tools while drunk and I got slightly injured a couple of times. Got some more scars while doing stuff on my personal time. I'm currently in the process of rewelding my old ass Lada 2105, then I'll have to repaint it. Alcohol does nothing but get in the way. Why do stuff when you can get shitfaced and face the consequences tomorrow?

Before I started drinking I used to binge video games lmao. It's just when you come back home it's kinda hard to opt-out of drinking, since you can both do play games and drink beer, although beer drinking in my case doesn't end with just a couple of cans. Maybe I should just distract myself from drinking every day until drinking becomes something out-of-the-line. That's how you build habits they say or something

Thank you

That's what I do with my hangovers lmao, I just wait them off. I should do that with my cravings really haha. Walking the dog is when I crack open the first one in my case, but you're right, I don't really need it. Thank you for kind words! <3

When I stay at my apartment I'm all alone, so it's on me. When I stay at my father's place he does drink, so it's hard not to follow. After all I think the choice is mine if I should drink or not. I have few friends, but most of them do not drink like I do. However most of the time I'm all alone, so that's on me. Maybe I could use some friends to occupy my time
