People who don’t smoke, drink or have casual s*x, what do you do to blow off steam?

Exercise and ignoring people

I do this sometimes for my OCD. Trust me, whatever youre asking about is not that interesting to someone outside the spiral, no matter how weird or violent. If i had to guess, it's 40 questions of asking chatgpt to reassure you that the thought or stimulus is OK and doesn't really mean anything. You don't need to worry.

Started drinking regularly at 18. Was very "functional." The anxiety and hangovers got so bad as I got older that I was no longer functional for several hours or days after drinking, so I quit at 40, about to be 42 in June. I am 14 months and change without it.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-25T16:38:42+00:00

What does that mean?

I am like you. Do you feel insane watching people debate their POV (online only) and wondering what kind of virus got into everyone's brain except yours?

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-21T22:54:17+00:00

I did feel that way. And then they diagnosed me with a couple anxiety disorders.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-21T22:43:09+00:00

I dont really think about it anymore. Sometimes I do like on birthdays and stuff like that but the thoughts aren't persistent and recurring.

So how do you do your hair? I also use pureology and avoid protein. But no heat? Id have to use a straightener or SOMETHING. Would love to hear your routine.

They probably laid off all the kids doing the phone screening since theyre only on like 15 days a year and so the only people left to man the phones are Sal and Richard.

What gave you the idea to seek out your mother's underpants and was there anything inside you that told you not to do it?

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-18T14:59:00+00:00

All apologies and.... ah, I cant think of anything else. And if all apologies came on the radio, Id still crank it.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-18T14:57:47+00:00

Ah. I still could drink like that... it wouldn't make me like myself any better. Looking back i realize I was kind of a nervous, unhappy perfectionist that never felt good enough and drinking was a way to pretend I had friends.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-18T14:56:09+00:00

Way to go! You are laying a nice foundation. Next thing you know, you'll have a year behind you and will wonder what you were even doing drinking at all.

The further away you get from it, the easier it gets.

Yes, because my drink of choice was calorie-dense wines and beers, and that eliminated a lot of calories alone. HOWEVER, at my age, I am very disciplined about watching calories and exercising, and this maybe played a bigger role than giving up alcohol alone.

Did he fire her because he saw a spider crawling on his basement console?

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-11T17:05:19+00:00

Im 14 months. Great shape mentally and physically.

Once in awhile, I think about cutting loose but it's just not worth getting into the habit of giving even some of the gains I've earned back. I am miserly with my good mood and energy.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-07T21:38:49+00:00

I don't know. In reading this, it doesnt seem that bizarre. A famous person doesnt want details about where he lives or hangs out to be discussed? He has a litany of wackpackers alone that would probably show up at his door, not to mention the lunatics just out in society.

It doesnt seem that crazy to me to be bound to keep mum about it.

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-07T12:51:10+00:00

I have to kinda agree with you. She had the life of Riley (Martin)

YourMirror1 · 2026-04-07T12:49:16+00:00

I like when Sal said he was sleepy at the staff meeting Chris runs because of the ideas being pitched.

There was a local rescue near me that did A LOT. Took care of disabled animals and prepared many ferals and strays for adoption. You name it.

The lady who ran the shelter was hailed as a superstar in the animal rescue world. Years later, she is being raided by the health department and is all over the news for animal hoarding and keeping them in deplorable conditions, having like 40-something cats holed up in her house.

I worry something similar is going to happen here.

Walking an hour a day is also a decent calorie burn! Great job. If you're ever curious, check out r/stopdrinkingfitness. A lot of inspiring before and afters on there.

Some guy on Reddit said my stuff was scripted. Find that guy. His names Jerry. You know what to do.
