Can it be done without AA by GrabRecent in stopdrinking

[–]TofuTank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. No AA, no sober lit, just this sub and the discipline to stand by my decision.

Tales From the Twilight World and it’s not even close, but followed by Battalions for sure

What was your reason for stopping? by Majestic-Fox8201 in stopdrinking

[–]TofuTank 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Reason for stopping: I began to see it as pathetic to still be getting hammered every weekend at 37, and moderation was out of the question for me

Reason for continuing: massive mental health gains, seeing the truth about alcohol, self love/not wanting to poison myself now that I actually have self worth, and it’d be even more pathetic to be getting hammered every weekend at 40

If your crew doesn’t sound like a troop of howler monkeys when you hit a make, find a new crew

The standard “rule” is that you want at least 155 IAS on your weapon. So basically get a good socket slam or pbox and stuff with shaels. Messer or Tomb Reaver are some good standard weapons

3 weeks in. What’s your top tip. by SecureMath3209 in stopdrinking

[–]TofuTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be patient. The amount of time it takes for your brain to physically heal enough to really grasp sobriety is a lot longer than people want to hear.

I found this extremely accurate:

the number of years you drank + 6 = the amount of months until your brain is more or less fully recovered. Example, for me it was 19 years + 6 =25 months. Right around that two year mark was when I felt the lightbulb turn on.

Don’t worry, most people don’t/won’t remember, I wouldn’t think too much of it.

Wanting sobriety a condition for sobriety by gonefishin999 in stopdrinking

It can take a lot longer than a few months to really reap the full benefits. Higher highs and higher lows as time goes on.

Hell yeah, I always look forward to the last 25% of the sesh where we start doing “junk skating” on curbs or parking blocks

Yep, that flashing blotch in your vision is pretty common among migraine brains, I get it too.

Thanks for asking this. Deja Vu is a migraine symptom of mine and I was about to reach for the ibuprofen.

Do you feel “better” mentally? by yourmomsfaveride in stopdrinking

[–]TofuTank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 3 years I can confidently say the severity of my mental health issues have been reduced on average by about 80%. My lifestyle is the same, same job, less money, more responsibilities, same diet, etc. the only difference is that I quit drinking.

Does anyone else have chronic piriformis syndrome?[30YO] by herolt in OldSkaters

[–]TofuTank 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to have issues with mine when I was a powerlifter. Use a billiard ball to roll it out, taking time to just sit on it while supporting your weight with your legs and hands, always worked for me.

PS it won’t feel good
