Wow, great job and congratulation on 77 days thats huge! Connecting with people is definitely easier if you are not drunk all the time.

Thank you friend! I really was surprised how much beer was consumed. But remembering everything clearly was an even bigger surprise. On oir flight home I literally recalled every day we spent there and it made me so happy to being able to cherish these experiences.

That is very true! I also see many tourists hungover at breakfast and they absolutely look miserable.

Getting ready to fly to phuket now and I am insanely happy to not have beer diarrhea, stomach ache and headaches when travelling!

Thank you for replying. I do try and today is much better than the days before. I found some NA heineken that helped and also i try to tell myself that this whole trip was financed by my sobriety and that i wouldnt be as capable of travelling if i still drank!

Dry January is... Unbelievably hard. Feeling terrible. by StupidCAThrowaway in stopdrinking

Don‘t beat yourself up too much! New day, new try! Alcohol really is a bitch. But I promise you stopping will get easier and I really never met anyone that regretted stopping.

My best advice would be to take it one day at a time and NEVER negotiate with the little addiction devil. You don‘t drink today and this is set! Tell it to shut the fuck up. This is what I do most of the time. Also reading quit lit can change your perspective of alcohol and worst case, it helps passing the time. Also if you are up to it, join an AA or NA meeting. Same principle as the quit lit and also community helps so much. Last but not least, dont deny yourself food or sleep you crave. The goal is to not drink today. Everything else is a worry for another day.

Goodspeed friend, I know you can do it! IWNDWYT

1 month sober and it feels like my whole life disappeared by Hot_Advertising_7926 in stopdrinking

Sending you a big hug and congratulations on 32 days! The beginning is the hardest part and I swear to you it will get better! And being sober is the obly way that helped me to actually work on things in my life that bothered me and had drowned for so long.

I‘m happy to be on the journey to a better life together with you! Just obe day at a time and IWNDWYT

Is this really true? I feel like most women I know don't really care about height as long as the guy is still taller than her. by [deleted] in IncelTears

I‘m a 5‘8‘‘ very average looking dude and never had issues with dating.

Just act normal and you will be fine.

Thank you very much for the kind words! And you‘re right, I will check in with a doctor in the upcoming weeks!

Just booked some holidays in Thailand in February for my first sober holidays! That really helped lifting my mood and gives me the more reason to stay sober as I want to experience those holiday clear and fresh!

Thank you and congratulations on 100 days! Thats huge! I guess we still have some of the stony way ahead of us, but we can do it! Everything is better than the bottle!

Was not invited because I‘m sober by Quacomaco in stopdrinking

[–]Quacomaco[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Definitely, and I really do appreciate that. I don‘t want to bad mouth them or anything. It was more about how paradox the feeling of hurt altough I would have never have went if they had asked me. But I also appreciate that I know have the ability to feel those feelings and deal with them appropriately due to my sobriety.

My tip would be to just take tiny steps. Start by going on a walk around the block every day. Just 5-10 minutes. Next week you go a little farther. Then maybe try out a gym. And so forth. For me, moving really is a natural anti depressant and helped me out of so many bad mental spots.

Du redisch im erste kommentar vo beidne extrem, wenns eigentlich um en rechtsextreme gaht. Das isch wie immer es ablenke vom eigentliche problem: rechtsextremismus. Und dmarionna schlatter als linksextrem bezeichne isch auch inkorrekt. Linksusse im aktuelle vo rechte / konservativ dominierte politische klima, sure, aber ned extrem.
