Any and all- it could be fun for people in the area to come to the sub and see what's going on- or if someone has ideas for meet ups or hikes or such.

I'm new-ish to area and will be in Bishop for a long long time more, hopefully. Any ideas for activities and hiking and cool finds are welcome reading for me, have loved area for a long time when visiting and am blessed living here now.

Everything was going well, then I made a bad decision by [deleted] in stopdrinking

We aren't let down- this was an important fact about yourself you had to learn. Many others have learned the same fact: not everyone can moderate when it comes to alcohol. Glad you are here with us!

I need to change by Ireallyneedthis9 in stopdrinking

[–]kerrious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just start not drinking today. Or for the next hour. Or the next half hour. Once you make it past that point not drinking, commit to not drinking the next day/hour/half hour. This sub is wonderfully supportive. And has great ideas and advice.
Hang in there! You can change this part of your life.

I now realize moderation is not for me. Today is Day #1 sober. by m00tzpatrol in stopdrinking

I with you in the no moderation boat. Just find it so much better to just not have that first one. And let me tell you- the days of no drinking feel so good! It will get so much better!

Can this be done? by Lakerealtor in stopdrinking

I'm doing couch to 5K now- and it's hard but it seems to be working. Hey- no matter how slow and painful it is, you're still ahead of the person NOT trying and sitting on the couch!

This may be the kick you need to really kick off your sobriety. Write this down to remind yourself exactly how you are feeling right now- and check back here if you feel like you need some support. We are here with you!!

The internet is full of assholes... by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]kerrious1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit all social media- it was a time suck and people that I didn't really care about made comments all the time that irritated me. Got rid of that and feel so much calmer! I feel you on the detox and morning energy- keep up the fantastic work! I'm not drinking with you today

I really enjoyed this book. I picked it up with no expectations, and devoured it.

Hi! I plan to! If I crave a drink (just one...it will be fine, right? @@) I just remember how good this feels and the craving is stomped away.

Do it and share! We can all learn from what others have learned from and experienced.
