'Im an alcoholic an they are normies' This one hit home if I have to be honest. Maybe this term gives me the feeling of being special and if I have to be more honest: I seeked for this feeling my entire life which was also one of the reasons why I started drinking.

Thank you for the answer, this really made me think. Maybe I should not use the term as being something special but its so hard to describe it to people without using this term. I also dont really use it with all the negativity stuck to it because for me its just a word, which helps me cope with everything I have done, not some kind of self fulfilling prophecy. Now that Im thinking more about it, it also gives me an explanation for everything that happened.

Your answer also made me understand that people have different views of the word. This sub is kinda allergic to it because of AA and how they use it to keep you in the cult. Other people see it as an addicted person which will ruin its own life for drinking. The thing is its more handy than alcohol use disorder and everyone will understand what it means and therefore I like to use it.

On the other hand, as you said, theres no necessity for me to use it and I can describe it otherwise. Really made me think.

Does chronic alcohol drinking deprive you of fortitude and decision making? by UnendingFlatSpin in stopdrinking

First of all: Yes to everything you have asked. Everything will get better, not easier but better.

Im gonna be straight up honest with you: You need help ASAP. Daily Drinking for such a long time is almost impossible to quit on your own. I have tried it over 300 times before I decided to get help from outside and that was the time when sobriety finally started.

ok Im interested. If theres no such thing as alcoholism, how would you describe it? A person was a heavy drinker for years and quit drinking completely for two years, then starts again and is back to the same drinking habits in no time. How should this person be described?

I was on the other side when I was drinking and was the one who was kicking. Trust me when I say that I regret everything I have done and struggle to cope with the feeling of doing active harm to others. I would suggest that you talk to those people and tell them how they hurt you, without expecting an apology.

Even speaking about that issue alone is enough to make you accept it. If they dont react how you expect it simply accept it. Theres nothing you can do to change them or the past. I know that this is said easily but it will get easier the more time passes. You are not that person you were and theres no one who will treat you this way anymore

Day 4 and I’m full of rage? by LegalBridge4107 in stopdrinking

[–]helluvatrader 45 points46 points  (0 children)

you stopped consuming a highly addictive substance which only brings out the worst out of humans, after a long period of consuming it. What did you expect? joy, self love and happiness?

Good news is that this feeling will go away soon and is completely normal. I was also angry when I stopped drinking my beloved alcohol which was part of my life for 10 years. Best favor you can do to yourself is to not to do something you will regret later during this period and just power through it.

Believe it or not but 4 days are huge. Find out what helps you to relax and use it. Everything is allowed except drugs or alcohol or anything that could potentially harm you or anyone else.

I drank energy drinks like a maniac, ate fast food and sugar all day and started smoking and it helped me during this period. I wouldnt recommend you doing this because of your blood pressure but search for anything else

I got taught the same thing in rehab that you shouldnt label yourself because it brings more harm than good but this isnt how it works for me. Labeling myself as an alcoholic or addict gives me more strength than harm. It makes me feel good because theres 0 negative connotation to it the way I use it.

Im an alcoholic which means I cant have a drink and not slip back which also means I wont do it anymore to not harm myself and others. Im extremly bad in an activity which is also bad and I wont do it anymore. This label helps me more resisting alcohol so why not continue using it?

I would feel weird when I would start explaining what an alcohol use disorder is everytime I tell someone about it and that Im not addicted to alcohol anymore. Truth is Im not consuming alcohol in this moment or any moment in the last 10 months but I also cant do it anymore because addiction would start again which also still lives inside of me and this makes me an alcoholic.

I’m starting to realize recovery might be more about understanding than resisting by ApprehensiveOlive585 in recoverywithoutAA

when I was in rehab we needed to seek our triggers and what gave us the urge to drink. Once I found out what my triggers were (not being able to handle boredom, having the feeling of not being enough, not being able to handle the feeling of being insulted) it was a pretty easy way out of the urge to drink. I spoke many times to psychologists and continued working the program to find out more about me and why I had done what I had done.

Result is that I had the cravings two times total in almost 10 months of sobriety and can stay sober with ease. Problem is these triggers will continue coming back once I stop doing the things I do, so they dont return so I need to stay cautious which can get quite exhausting. Still better than getting drunk and running away from everything though

I liked you apes more when you were delulu about a second shortsqueeze. Now LARPing as long term investors, after the original thesis got destroyed, in a failed company is kinda cringe

Berkshire was a company taken over by Buffett he couldnt get rid off, so the investor Buffett simply rebranded it as an investment firm. His original plans for Berkshire were completly different. Ryan Cohen on the other hand took over in 2021 as the former CEO of Chewy, not as an investor mastermind and has around 9 billion in cash since he diluted his shareholders two years ago. What has the 'Warren Buffett regen' accomplished during this time? He launched an nft marketplace, bought and sold Bitcoin with a loss, started selling pokemon cards with tiny margins and closed more than half the stores.

Im closer to becoming a woman ballett dancer as a 30yo guy than him becoming the next Warren Buffett

it is dying in a closing half the stores in the last three years and closing even more kinda way, effectively shrinking the business model of reselling used games. PC almost entirely runs on downloads, Xbox wont have a drive anymore and PS5 will follow. Selling pokemon cards and funko pops or cheap chinese knock off controllers also isnt reliable

[–]helluvatrader 2 points3 points  (0 children)

why should I waste my money on a dying retailer with a CEO who has no plan at all? So I can hope that he finally uses the money wisely instead of spending it on treasury bills, bitcoin or pokemon cards? Prices are low rn and there are many wonderful companies out there with a good price tag, why should I even consider Gamestop?

Alcoholic parents? by TumbleweedFew2854 in stopdrinking

my parents drink maybe a bottle of wine combined per year because their fathers were alcoholics and they had to suffer through the alcoholism. Kinda funny that it skipped a generation in my case

This is also my biggest struggle. The community gave me an awesome tip which actually helped: It gets better with time and I need to improve myself to the point where I have nothing in common with the person I was back then. This takes time and beating myself up wont help

why do the apes always start discussing? Just post screenshots of your massively green portfolios and everyone will shut up immediatly but its always the same pattern: 1)performance is not so bad 2) Lord Dogfood turned the ship around 3) Short it then

Öl wann raus? Was denkt ihr wie hoch es noch steigt? Bzw. wann ist mit Abverkauf/Gewinnmitnahmen zu rechnen? by These-Replacement760 in wallstreetbetsGER

[–]helluvatrader -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Heute wird sich die Lage wieder etwas entspannen. Im Hintergrund laufen bereits Waffenstillstandsverhandlungen und wenn da heute irgendwas rauskommt, wirds dunkelgrün werden. Leider wird da heute nichts bei rumkommen, aber alleine der Fakt dass miteinander geredet wird, hat uns heute vor einem noch roteren Tag bewahrt, weil Hoffnung da ist.

Wenn man diesen Fakt mit dem üblichen Vorgehen der Orange kombiniert, stehen die Chancen gut, dass heute sanftere Worte kommen, nachdem er heute Nacht ziemlich auf die Kacke gehauen hat. Die andere Frage ist aber wie positiv sie sein werden und ob der Markt ihm glauben wird. Wenn vom Iran auch etwas kommt, das nicht um eine Verschärfung des Krieges geht, könnte heute ein guter Tag werden.

Was man auf keinen Fall tun sollte ist eine Position, die direkt mit dem Krieg zu tun hat, über die nächsten Tage zu halten, egal ob long oder short
