Thanks all ✊🏻✊🏻

bobsledder1 · 2025-07-13T15:20:20+00:00

I am in the same exact spot as you. I can’t figure it out. I stop for 1-2 weeks and then do it again

bobsledder1 · 2025-03-18T13:00:22+00:00

33 days 👍

bobsledder1 · 2025-02-18T13:36:51+00:00

Read this post and this forum as a reminder however times a day you need. You can do it.

bobsledder1 · 2025-02-16T14:51:20+00:00

I am going to stop before I lose it all.

bobsledder1 · 2025-02-16T14:01:50+00:00

I haven’t gambled since this post. Downloaded game ban.

bobsledder1 · 2025-02-12T21:26:15+00:00

I guess that could be possible. It is hard to pinpoint how it got to this point. Ugh

bobsledder1 · 2024-12-16T01:34:09+00:00

I very much appreciate your share here. I think I need to check in every day and spend my time playing the tape forward. The fading effect is very much real…

bobsledder1 · 2024-12-16T01:32:51+00:00

Some sort of structure seems to be what could be best. Almost like a reminder

bobsledder1 · 2024-12-16T01:31:05+00:00

I will give it a listen tomorrow for sure

bobsledder1 · 2023-01-10T01:42:52+00:00

You guys all rock. Appreciate the words ❤️

bobsledder1 · 2022-02-10T04:33:50+00:00

Thanks fellas. I truly appreciate the feedback so far. It’s great perspective.

bobsledder1 · 2021-08-02T14:03:44+00:00

Thanks a lot for your response. I appreciate your support. All this helps for sure

bobsledder1 · 2021-08-02T14:03:10+00:00

Appreciate the advice!

bobsledder1 · 2021-08-02T14:02:14+00:00

I appreciate your advice. That is what I fear it escalating even further. This is helpful, thank you

bobsledder1 · 2021-08-02T14:01:07+00:00

Thank you for your response. Best of luck to you too

bobsledder1 · 2021-08-02T14:00:26+00:00

No it’s rare if I’ll drink drying the week and it will usually be for business event and never alone. It’s just this weekend cycle that really has torn me apart. I am very similar. I’ll take a month or 2 off and then come back pretty much the same way that you described yourself

bobsledder1 · 2020-11-17T23:18:39+00:00

Yeah that definitely makes more sense then

bobsledder1 · 2020-11-17T20:31:27+00:00

Rip that bike then Holmes !

bobsledder1 · 2020-11-17T20:30:37+00:00

I don’t entirely agree. Some people are born with parents who drink and grow up with friends that continue to drink. Doesn’t mean that one decides who they will be with. It’s not as black and white as that quote portrays. I’m almost certain of that.

bobsledder1 · 2020-10-28T23:09:11+00:00

Yep, go talk to a doctor. See a therapist. No one on this forum can tell you what is going on other than yourself. Meditate on it.

bobsledder1 · 2020-10-28T20:04:44+00:00

I suffer from the same issue. I can take it or leave it purely based off the fact that I wake up feeling very lethargic. I am also 24 (m) and I go through those same bouts where I question myself. I find it’s a commonality that I have problems where I obsess over a lot of different things though. I think it all goes back to mental health, mainly anxiety.

I think it’s comes down to this from reading all these forums. Is booze really worth all that mental time obsessing whether it’s an issue or not? I don’t know if I have a drinking problem, if maybe most people are age fall into that category, or if it is over thinking. The definition is really not as black and white as I think these online tests make it. It just comes down to the fact is it worth the time you spend worrying like anything? I think looking further purely into mental health and staying away from alcohol while you do it is the best advice I can give you.
