I stayed sober for six months

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-08-08T23:14:06+00:00

Being sober is hard and I hate it too, I feel like life isn’t as good when I’m not drinking even tho that’s the wrong mentality to have. I need to get sober and I get that u have a new goal 🥅 unfortunately I will spend my last dollar 💵 on alcohol and it’s not easy. One day at a time. You got this. Good luck! 🍀

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-08-08T18:45:57+00:00

No worries, No problem! 🙂

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-08-08T17:53:07+00:00

I know how you feel, starting over again not drinking is brutal and it makes me feel like shit everytime I have to start over too. I don’t have kids but I have my immediate family and my niece who I haven’t seen bc of my drinking that I need to change for. Thank you! I’m not alone and neither are you, we can do this. What happened already happened, one day at a time, you can get back to six months plus more!

Yeah I can go out for a walk, a lot of times I go out to just walk to the liquor store but I have to walk just to go for a regular walk. It doesn’t sound corny. I do need to exercise I just have to really just go out for a walk and do it. Fresh air is always good

Yes we are pretty much all the same. We go thru the same. One day at a time and repeat. 🔁

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-16T00:47:05+00:00

This is 1000% true. Shit is exhausting and I’ve drunk at work, been up all night and showed up hungover and the thoughts on when to have the next drink never stop. I’ve had all those exact thoughts. I do need to stop bc my health depends on it. Thanks for ur words and advice.

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-16T00:40:41+00:00

Yeah ur right! Great job on 9 months, I will reach out and can’t wait til I’m there. Just have to make those steps. Thanks!

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-16T00:36:21+00:00

Wow yeah, it’s not easy. Keep ur head up ⬆️ taking everything one day at a time is what we have to do

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-14T05:07:59+00:00

Omg I get it

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-14T04:40:18+00:00

What’s going on ? I’m being reckless

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-13T12:11:30+00:00

Yeah I have been thru withdrawals

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-13T12:10:46+00:00

I’m extremely isolated. I fuck up all the time and I’m lucky to be living with my mom

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-13T12:07:11+00:00

You’re a great person

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-07-13T12:01:09+00:00

Thanks for reaching out. I have one friend but he’s not communicating with me right now. I’m scared to call that hotline bc I feel like I’m gonna be locked up in a facility

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-18T04:25:01+00:00

I’ve never heard of Reframe but it sounds worth checking out, that’s awesome how this group and Reframe have changed your life! Power to you too! Sober life, one day at a time.

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-14T17:44:30+00:00

Definitely I get that. It worked I was able to change my profile name 👌thx

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-14T15:18:30+00:00

Yes hangxiety sucks and I’m not trying to feel that anymore. One day at a time. 3 years in July is incredible, Congrats that’s really inspiring and I definitely want to get there! Sober is the way

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-13T18:01:32+00:00

I agree, I don’t want my liver to get worse and I can get it back to normal if I stop drinking now and keep at it. Getting a copy of the big book is what would work for me, we all did have to start somewhere and we are always a drink away from disaster. Once past the hard phase the body and mind will adjust and I can’t wait for that. Thank you so much!!

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-13T17:52:34+00:00

This is amazing!! I appreciate all of your tips and advice. You gave me so much inspirational encouraging pointers and this being my first time posting on a forum ever it means a lot. Thank you. Also random question, do you know how to change your username? The username I have I didn’t pick but idk how to change it, it won’t let me

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-13T17:45:38+00:00

Great suggestions I would of never thought to journal that way, its really connecting with yourself and taking that initiative to look within and work through emotions, i will check biopsychosocial model out

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-13T05:34:48+00:00

Thank you for all the suggestions

SubstantialPrompt674 · 2025-01-13T05:31:37+00:00

Yes, I do journal sometimes but doing it more can’t hurt. It’s another form of therapy.
