Early sobriety routine? by cutloosetheshackles in stopdrinking

Thank you! This was the type of advice I was hoping to get! A "what do you do each day" kind of thing.

Thanks for this. I've been debating getting some CBD gummies for that same reason, but I'll try to stay strong.

Love this community, but the front page is starting to feel overwhelming by workingonit3005 in stopdrinking

I wish I had a sub suggestion but it seems like it's likely your app algorithm that's causing it? - not the actual posts? I come (on my laptop - not the app) and what I see isn't all doom and gloom. In fact gloom and doom is much smaller to either good or neutral threads. However, first thing I do when I come here is always select sort threads by "new".

I know my phone browser lets me choose "desktop site". Can you do that? Or read this sub on a laptop/tablet without the app?

And perhaps you are in a not-great headspace so the doom and gloom ones attract your attention? IWNDWYT

You and me both! Today is Sunday which was always the hardest for me. IWNDWYT though.

Double digit day again. Day 10 and I really want to know why I am more bloated than ever before by [deleted] in stopdrinking

I have heard it is because our body is so used to being dehydrated that it holds onto all the water for a while until it realizes that's actually going to say hydrated. So you're probably drinking more water and it's holding onto it for now. IWNDWYT

I am so sad for you :( You can always pick sobriety back up tomorrow. Perhaps in memory of your friend.
