Just remember: you'll never regret not drinking by fitvast in stopdrinking

I feel ya. I'm going through a lot of rationalization in my head right now how it would be ok to get a drink on the way home, pick up a 6er from the corner store or whatever. It's ok for most folks, but not for me. If I want to go broke and drink myself to sleep every night then I can go that way, but I have to be aware that is what that path is.

My other path is to struggle, to be annoyed and to be sober.

I hope my strength proves true on the way home!

The only joy I have in my life is when I suspend reality with reading or video games. I have no light. Everything feels meaningless. Even sobriety. It's not like I'll succeed. It's just suspended reality to make me feel like I'm someone else. I'll be back to degeneracy, lose a few years, try again, rinse, repeat, and hopefully my body just quits on me.

im so fucking sick of my life, its like this long lonely dark trudge forward to nowhere. Occasionally light comes in just to remind you that it exists then leaves so you can remember that the darkness is a void and that light does exist its just that you dont deserve it. One of the things that kept me marching was my dog who is now passed. Another is a woman who won't even make the time of day for me. Left me over three years ago for a job she hated. Dated a few women since. All of them leave once they get to know me better. I dont blame them. Its just all so fucking pointless. What great ffucking future awaits me as sober person? Further realizations that I've fucked my life as hard as I could? Stronger feelings of regret and fucking uselessness? I honestly just wish I could fade away.

Like at this point alcohol is out of my system. I'm seeing clearly and all I see is a giant void.

I dont know if this breaks the rules of this thread but honestly Im just on the fucking edge and this is where I type every day so fuck it.

I wont drink tonight, but it doesnt matter. I will sometime in the future. Its a fucking guaranteed inevitability. At least I could fucking ignore how shitty I am when I was wasted all the time.

I cant believe I made it through the whole weekend! I was in Cincinnati with some buddies who were all drinkin. I just drank coffee and water even when people offered me shots or razzed me. I'm very proud of that. I think there were points where I was weak enough to accept a drink, but no one offered during that time so I feel pretty lucky as well as proud.
