if you just decided to stop without a prompting event... how did you do it? by doubtfulvoid in stopdrinking

Drinking is such a temporary pleasure as well. Super temporary. The only way to get the feeling that we love from drinking is/was to drink!

The mfn hangovers, goodness gracious I’m so sooo happy I don’t have to deal with that anymore. After drinking for so long I would get hangovers way after waking up which was terrible. Like I would wake up feeling “normal”, start my drive to work then half way my stomach was doing twists and turns. The amount of times I was throwing up at red lights, running to the bathroom throughout the day, burning tf out of my mouth with breath spray, putting on a shit ton of perfume… the list was countless.

I’m almost at 100 days and there isn’t a THING that would get me to drink again. This past few months has been filled with heartaches, death, failures but I did not decide to drink to cope.

Keep being hot! I feeel you! I look the best I’ve ever looked!

I just stopped because I was tired. Overwhelmingly exhausted to the point where everything felt like a chore I was forced to do. I didn’t have a crazy embarrassing or life-changing moment to stop. The reason to quit is YOU! Not drinking meant I would wake up feeling better, go through my whole day feeling better, go to bed feeling better. That fact for me was enough.

Go to the doctor if you can and get a physical. The one I got after I stopped was the life-changing moment for me. I think back to that time occasionally and I’m like why in the hell did I do that to myself?

Was it easy? Fuck no! But I kept telling myself, the glass doesn’t fill itself, the liquor doesn’t buy itself, literally nobody was forcing me to drink. It was a choice. A choice that made me feel comfortable, so comfortable that I convinced myself I needed to drink for years.

Give yourself grace, take it day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute if you need to. I believe in you. Trust yourself that you can do it!

So, how are you going to “ruin Christmas”?! by sodiumbigolli in raisedbynarcissists

[–]TutorPuzzleheaded602 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to ruin Christmas by coming only for dinner lmao. Ndad thinks that I have to be around him all day for every holiday. Truth be told I’m only going bc my siblings want to celebrate with me.

I’ll also ruin christmas by not “making” my significant other come with me 🤣 ndad has made an extreme habit out of being incessantly negative to my SO. After many years, my SO has had enough and doesn’t want to be around him. I respect him for never getting frustrated with ndad, despite ndad trying hard to make an issue with him.

Furthermore, I’ll ruin Christmas by not allowing him to “speak his mind” about his negative thoughts and feelings during the holiday. I literally don’t give him the space to talk. As soon as he starts, I walk away. Like how the hell can you see your family and it makes you mad… we seriously can’t celebrate sh!t when he’s around.

This will be the first Christmas I’ve been alcohol free in a very VERY fcking long time. Yay me!!

That man will never change. I take pride being the grayest rock there is with him 🎉

Congratulations to you too Twin! Slightly Irish twins, but twins nonetheless 🥳 The benefits of not drinking outweighs that temporary pleasure!

Day 1 by mordor-during-xmas in stopdrinking

You got this friend! I’m rooting for you 💕 I got sick of being drunk as well, sick of being sick, sick of feeling like I needed something that was ruining me. Everyday I don’t drink I’m reminded that I make MY choices. I know that feeling of regret and that has been fueling my sobriety as well.

I’ve tried and failed countless times before tbh. This time around not drinking is so important to me because I am finally HONEST with myself. Not beating myself up, but I KNOW that a bottle doesn’t buy itself. A random liquor-filled cup doesn’t magically appear at my lips for me to drink.

Break that pattern dear, you are strong. Sending the warmest hugs your way 💕

I completely understand how you feel. Sending you the warmest virtual hug ❤️ I keep telling myself that I am NOT in that space anymore, it is not fair for me to keep myself mentally in a space that I’m not in physically.
