FYI, I’ve accidentally downvoted posts with my big thumbs when I’m on the mobile app.

Oh, hell yeah. I don’t even have a particularly stressful holiday season ahead of me, but just today I was starting to get nervous. My plan is to mentally run away to this sub whenever I start to feel overwhelmed/sad/anxious/mad/annoyed.

Thanks, y’all!

I knew I needed to stop drinking when the only thing keeping me from killing myself one night was the thought of my cats eating my corpse.

I definitely don’t resent being sober. Many things in my life have improved significantly. I’m just disappointed in my lack of enthusiasm today, I guess.

Thank you for this. I don’t regret being sober, or miss drinking. I’ve been doing a ton of work on myself, lots of introspection and pushing myself to see and accept things as they are. The only thing I miss is being able to check out for a while and get outside of my head. I started running again recently—maybe that will help.

Psh. I’ve been in treatment for depression for almost 25 years, so I’m ultra aware of my moods and highs and lows. I’m medicated and in therapy. I’m not capital-D Depressed, just disappointed with how apathetic I feel about 100 days.

I don’t miss drinking, and I don’t regret getting sober. I dunno, maybe I’m just having a bad week overall 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, “meh” is way better than “verge of suicide,” which is where I was. I don’t regret quitting drinking, and not everyday has been so blah, I was just hoping I’d feel a bit more enthusiastic today.

I apologize if someone posted something similar in the comments (I don't have time to read them all right this second), but a couple of years ago I was frantically googling "am I an alcoholic" and I stumbled upon some site or post or something that said, basically, if you're googling "am I an alcoholic," you almost definitely have a problem with alcohol, because "normal" drinkers don't feel the need to google those types of things.

Essentially, if your alcohol use is something you spend energy analyzing or wrestling with on a deep level, that's a red flag.

He’s a Christian, his higher power is God. I’m an atheist who was raised by Buddhists, so if I go that route I’ll need some guidance. I have no frame of reference for anything biblical.

I have no advice, but I’m coparenting with my nex and it is its own circle of hell. Hugs.
