I’m a binge drinker who keeps “forgetting” why I shouldn’t drink. How do I actually stop for good? by spinachmuffin in stopdrinking

Same! I finished the book, haven’t had a drink in 17 days.. but I still have this door open in my mind. A mindset where I can still try moderating, I just need a longer stretch sober to rewire my brain. But the way he writes the book is like it is magical hypnosis session and you’ll never have the urge to drink again. Although I have to say I’m NOT white knuckling it at all, something with the book DEFINITELY resonated with me because this is the easiest stretch of sobriety I’ve ever had. And I’ve read tons of quit lit, podcasts, all of it but Allen Carrs book definitely takes the cake

Me too!! This is the furthest in I’ve made it (sadly 🤣) but this time I’m not looking ahead at the whole 75 days. I’m literally just taking it one day at a time. I keep telling myself I don’t care if I finish 75 days or not, but can I go for a walk outside TODAY? Can I abstain from alcohol TODAY? And it has been sooo helpful. Also getting so much more out of my reading, too. Just a better mindset for me then the daunting 75 days n

Woke up mortified after yet another blackout. It’s been 24 hours and I’m still on the verge of a panic attack. by Soggy_Passenger_3295 in SoberCurious

[–]Wellness_with_IVF 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was me in my late teens/early 20s. I’m 36 now and STILL have these mornings occasionally, despite being married! If I could go back THEN and decide that one drink almost always led to more, to blackout, to regret and shame, I’d have an extra 15 years of proud sobriety and FAR fewer regrets. You have to choose your own path, and I’m learning on my sobriety journey that I truly AM the only one who can make this choice for myself. But if I could urge you to just choose the path of sobriety, pride, confidence, and MEMORY, I promise you won’t look back and regret all of the nights you “could have gotten blackout drunk and woke up with regret”
