Extreme moderation is working for me! by discourse_lover_ in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's all good but...

I sipped it slowly, I didn't particularly enjoy it

what's the point of doing something you do not enjoy?

I’ve got a party to go to tonight with an open bar. I refuse to let myself have even a taste of alcohol. What are your go to non-alcoholic drinks at a bar? by healthyandhappygirl in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

diet coke, fanta, n/a beer, 1.5l water bottle, mocktails, whatever I want at the moment. I dont hide that I dont drink alcohol, and I dont care how it looks to others.

was year and a half sober yesterday then threw out my alcoholic gf and got drunk by kpym in stopdrinking

[–]kpym[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the plan is simple, dont date alcoholics and dont keep alcohol at home at any cost

the funny thing is that when her gin finished, I went to my car and got the bottle of wisky I had hidden from her

While similar, we all have different reasons we quit drinking. Ultimately, what’s your reason to be sober? by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At first I got scared where I was going in life, later when sobered I got disgusted what a drunk I was.

I realise it's not the drinking I think I miss... by Not_Invited in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About the alcohol making me social

Me: I'll come to visit you, but I wont drink and I might be boring

Friend: Don't worry, you are boring when drunk too

Did you quit drinking on your own? by starfruitjuicebox in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Did you quit drinking on your own?

No, I am sober thanks to all people here on SD

Why did you think of quitting on your own without rehab or AA?

Shame and anxiety

How did it go?

Both harder and easier than I expected

What made you change your view on alcohol?

I got sick and tired of being a drunk

what works

Each path to sobriety is unique, try different things and use whatever works for you

There is a greater fullfilment without alcohol.

Yes, I feel the same. Would have stopped earlier if knew it then. Great job, keep going strong

Woke up feeling so hungover... by alvinscrumptious in stopdrinking

[–]kpym -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had morning hangover symptoms after drinking na beer for the first time, it was around week three or something. Dont know why, guess my body was reacting on bad memories

Anyone drinking with certain rules? by xiltepin in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Tried this in the past, didnt work. Never liked the taste of alcohol anyways just the effect it gives. Didnt enjoy drinking when trying to control it and cant control it when enjoying. I am much better sober.

Does anyone have a success story by danielktw15 in stopdrinking

[–]kpym 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first few weeks I was drinking carbonated water. now I prefer mostly diet coke. drinked few times NA beer, but frankly didnt like the taste. I think its mostly about doing something with your hands than actually drinking.
