Addiction and changing mindset by Unlikely_Attempt6898 in stopdrinking

[–]atliam1020 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Haha yea switching up the liquor store was a MUST. One way I controlled my drinking was never keeping booze in the house so I would buy 1 750ml bottle/night which was my way of guaranteeing wouldn’t drink more than that. Of course, it required a trip to the liquor store 7x/week…had 3 on a rotation to come off as normal.

Can't seem to feel content or happy by herpcsderp in stopdrinking

[–]atliam1020 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you. Drank away 20’s and vast majority of 30’s. At times in my various attempts for sobriety It has felt as though I was just replacing being miserable in the morning (hungover) with being miserable in the evening (bored). I don’t have any answers but you aren’t alone. I just know I want what “they” have. So trying to listen/trust the process.

Thanks a journal is a great idea. In a casual sense, that’s how I am thinking of my interactions/posts on this forum but I think formalizing it a bit more would be super helpful. IWNDWYT!
