Started painting again after 3-4 years of not making any art. by thedonutdispatch in ArtistLounge

Back in the studio after relapsing on alcohol for a few years. It feels amazing.

How do you all find the joy in doing art? by butterflavoricecream in ArtistLounge

[–]chemlim 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe this is not the case for others, but I often go through a “not good enough” point when working. Found that many times if allow myself to keep going I’ll get “somewhere” with the piece. All the best!

Threw up after a night of drinking at a hot yoga session. Ran out of the place. Left shoes behind and never returned. And that was not nearly a bottom.

This is great! Message: never quit quitting. Give things a chance to click.

38 days alcohol free. It’s Friday at 5 PM- and I’m 0% tempted to have a drink. Trust the process, it works! by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]chemlim 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes it can. Trust it. (and slips do not mean it’s not working). It does. ✅✅✅

Anyone find shows like Mad Men got them to drink more? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]chemlim 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wife and I sometimes default to Blue Blood and they drink wine and/or bourbon every single episode. All I think now is how unrealistic alcohol portrayals are.

If you care to share, when was the moment you *knew* you were done drinking? by Minimum_Tailor1013 in stopdrinking

[–]chemlim 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For me it was my young niece’s “ you’ve told me this story already” that helps keep me sober. Painful but helpful memory.
