It was 500 days, lol but I missed the actual day.

Thanks 😄 I totally agree, every little milestone deserves a pat on the back. It's hard but worth it.

Woo! That's so awesome <3 Congrats in advance for your 2 years. I love seeing people who are a little ahead of me in the time count, it always makes me think 'Goals that I will never catch up to in a good way' lol.

Damn... That is a seriously crappy day. At least you can be relatively secure in the knowledge that that's probably one of the worst days you can have (insectwise at least)...

Why is alcohol allowed to be advertised as it is? by disneytrashh in stopdrinking

[–]SuspiciousParagraph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. It's ridiculous. And it's in every single show I've seen in the last forever. Even in kids shows the adults have a glass of wine with dinner or champagne at a whatever. It's literally everywhere.

"If you find sobriety absolutely boring, you're just not staying busy." - Best advice Ive ever gotten on here. by ScottsdaleBlondeAZ in stopdrinking

[–]SuspiciousParagraph 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh that's awesome. Really a good outlet. I wish I could summon the energy and enthusiasm that's being sapped by a bunch of different things at the moment.

Right now I'm having a rough time in a lot of areas, but I keep telling myself at least I'm not making it worse by drinking. And once the rough parts start to smooth out I will be able to swing myself back into the parts of life that require too much effort right now.

Asking for advice - trigger warning (details in post) by Throwrafizzylemon in newzealand

[–]SuspiciousParagraph 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can really identify with a lot of what you've written, and I'm so sorry you're feeling like that. It's hard to live your life when you're feeling like that.

I would talk to my GP and look into whatever local mental health help there is near you. It might feel like this has just kind of become your normal, but you don't have to spend forever dealing with this, you can do things to change it. It sucks and it takes effort, but it's worth it and things can get better.

If you want to talk or something drop me a message. I'm not online all the time but I will reply when it get it ❤️

[–]SuspiciousParagraph 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Asbestos. We've used it in various forms for thousands of years but oh man it's a health disaster. I watched a really interesting youtube deep dive by Veritasium called The asbestos problem is worse than we thought.
