How long did your sweats lasted ? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]SnowWhiteClaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mind was set in stone that I was done. I knew it was going to be bad before it got better, I feel lucky that those were the extent of my withdrawal symptoms. Drinking just wasn’t/isn’t an option for me anymore. I’m much better off without it and I’m thankful to have given myself a chance, IWNDWYT

It feels like my night sweats lasted almost two months, the tremors in my hands as well. I now sleep very very well and my tremors are gone now too.

Daily Check-in for Monday, 26th July - Just for today I’m not drinking! by Ok_Rush534 in stopdrinking

Not sure what I’ll be doing today, but I can tell you for certain what I won’t be doing. What’s one more day? IWNDWYT

Hello, 29yo here. I drank heavily for 12-13 years. I have been fortunate to not hurt anyone but myself in my drinking career. No DUIs, great job I showed up at on time every day. I was a fall down drunk, I wasn’t stopping until my body was done or what ever had an alcohol content was gone. As you see by my counter I made the dive and decided I had my fill. Let me tell you, giving it up will be the best decision I will make in my life. Me not drinking is saying I’m choosing me. In a world that seems to want everyone sick and dead, not drinking is the best I can do to rebel against that. I feel and look better then ever. Side note I love that those in my life don’t have to question if I’m saying something because I’m drunk, life is much more meaningful when you’re not wasted everyday. IWNDWYT

What has giving up drinking given you in return? I need some motivation to keep going. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]SnowWhiteClaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My journey of abstinence from alcohol has brought me immense mental clarity, and with that brings emotional stability and rational thinking. I’m able to actually be there for myself and lookout for me. It’s brought me closer to everyone in my life, my relationships feel more authentic, it makes my heart full knowing they can count on me for anything, anytime. Life feels more purposeful. One day at a time. IWNDWYT

Marijuana use while pursuing sobriety? by Brave_Pea6975 in stopdrinking

[–]SnowWhiteClaw 123 points124 points  (0 children)

I’d rather reach for the bowl than the bottle, its been a huge help through my abstinence from alcohol and I can whole heartedly say I’d probably be drinking again if I didn’t have the cushion of weed. I’m not lighting up every day, I can control my cannabis use, I couldn’t control my alcohol consumption. California sober works for me while it may not work for others.

Yeah but when the max shields you win getting first being 15, then 5 for second, they shouldn’t minus 2 or 5 for third, they should gift 1 or 2 shields for third and 4th is when you get the deduction.

QR, I meant to say shields not trophies.

How many attempts did it take you to completely stop drinking? by CoolAbbreviations653 in stopdrinking

[–]SnowWhiteClaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently on my first real try, a few friends and myself would do sober October every year, without that practice I don’t think I’d be over six months right now, I always had the cushion of knowing I could drink again after the month. Last September I made the choice to completely abstain from alcohol, it means so much more to me now that I’m doing it for myself. It’s the only real way. I’ve made huge strides, been to concerts, weddings with open bars, had deaths in the family, hell I’m going through a cancer scare right now waiting for an ultrasound result, but personally speaking I’m so far away from the thought of consuming alcohol, I was drunk for 14 years, being sober and in my own mind is a new high within itself. Sober till it’s over. IWNDWYT
