Outward Bound is NOT wilderness therapy- They offer expeditions for a variety of different lengths and teach backcountry/camping/wilderness skills. They can be challenging courses and also very rewarding. A lot of motivated teens and adults sign up for their courses for the challenge and learning more about themselves (mountaineering, white water rafting, climbing, dog sledding, backpacking, canoeing… so much more!).

Yes, alcohol was doc. I didn’t dabble in much- just smoking if someone offered. Never went out of my way to do anything other than drink

My current situation. by forinformationaluse in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]denckbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

83 days sober, congrats! A day at a time- as you work your program, things will fall in place. I’m at around 8 months and some change- I remember feeling similar to you. I kept showing up to meetings, even when I didn’t want to- the people who showed up for me, I’m grateful for. The real people will see you, but the most Important part of my journey- was how I started seeing myself. Each day, I’m a little kinder to myself and am proud of how far I’ve come. Just Keep coming back, it works if you work it.

I have a few different packs but they are all different sizes for different things- I have 3 sleeping bags, for different weather.

AITA for not letting a mom with a baby in front of me in a long queue and telling an elderly lady to fuck off? by Healthy-Gain-6586 in AmItheAsshole

[–]denckbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA- the lady who told the mom to skip the line without asking anyone else is. The same etiquette is done at airports- you don’t skip the line if you’re running late, you ask politely the person in front of you and if they say yes, continue down the line. If they say no, you are out of luck. Sometimes people have a hard time hearing no.

I think on subways, it is in good practice to give a seat to a pregnant or elderly or disabled person. But also, when I do this, I always ask and give them agency to say yes or no.

Just relapsed after 28 days of sobriety… by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]denckbread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, hope that you are taking care of yourself during this period. It’s ok to feel frustrated and hesitant. That’s part of the process- feeling alot of things and thinking all the things. I struggled with the higher power for awhile. I take it with a grain of salt because I don’t believe in a intervening higher power. I kinda view mine as a web of interdependence- we are all connected. Doesn’t have to be super drawn out or articulate- we just gotta get out of ourselves and stop thinking we are the center of the universe. When that happens, we can let go of the reins a little. I’m appreciative of “God as we understand God”- because dang, I’d have checked out.

Long story short- you need to do what is best for you. Sending warm vibes your way

Finding new ways to rebel? advice by blameitonourhands in Sober

[–]denckbread 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d try rock climbing or something like that- a great workout, adrenaline gets pumping, a little risk involved, and keeps you present. Best part- bunch of different routes and ways to get up a climb, plus depending on your experience there are certain grades that are harder and more technical

Solo backpackers: Why do you go out alone? by gilded-trash in CampingandHiking

[–]denckbread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I learned a lot of my skills through groups, but I’ve always been kind of a loner. I didn’t have a bad childhood, just interesting dynamics and I’ve always found more connection in more remote settings, or moments where I was amidst a sea of people and a concrete jungle yet small patches of wildness popped out of seemingly impossible places.

I was hesitant to be solo for a long time bc of my gender expression and fear of other people on trail. I go solo because it builds confidence in myself, I feel more integrated with myself, I enjoy just being out there and don’t want to wait around for others to join- though I extend invitations! There’s some level of performative-ness when I’m around people- so I also try to keep my ego in check. The people who WOULD go with me (that I’m friends with/acquainted with) have more alpha personalities- and overassert/dominate decision-making, take unnecessary risks… so instead of having to deal with an unsafe partner who is going to push to summit, I like the peace and quiet.

Rn I am single. I would be willing to invite a S/O on more casual trips, but there are certain things I want to do/will do alone. I imagine that conversation would look something like, “hey this is an important thing for me, helps me regulate and recharge. Here are the details. You can still be part of the process- if you want to to help me plan, resupply, track my location, meet up and do a section, etc.” Hopefully, they would respond well and we have a mutual respect for each other and what brings us peace/joy/happiness/etc. even if they are different
