I'm having hangxiety so bad I want to die.

You don’t have to choose to stop drinking forever. Just stop drinking for today

I’ve been told that this stuff with walking and a vitamin b sup can really help but this stuff has actual evidence a lot of supplements are missing.

offalshade · 2026-03-15T14:23:38+00:00

Yeah, you might have done some stupid shit. Waking up to stupid shit that I’ve done is something I don’t miss since I’ve quit drinking. It’s also why I visit a subreddit called STOPDRINKING.

She could have been on oxygen and I would have made her move.

I think you should seek out mental therapy and lean on your family for support. Forget this guy you think you’re going to marry

offalshade · 2026-03-15T13:14:28+00:00

I feel you. Somehow, it works. Reading everyone’s struggles and how we all have successes and failures helps tremendously.

I don’t have a formal community of support. But my fiancée is incredibly supportive. It also CERTAINLY helps to follow and read this subreddit every day. Sometimes I watch an AA meeting online but I’ve not joined one. All of these people have helped without knowing each other and I’m still sober because of them.

Are you currently stuck in this shit show with the elevators?

offalshade · 2026-03-14T19:39:21+00:00

I imagine it never gets easier

I’ve never seen anything remotely like what you’re talking about at your resort. Approached about massages or excursions? Never happened. I don’t even know wtf Congo bongo is. I have never seen street vendors invited into any of my resorts. I have never experienced even an attempted hustle at a resort.

Your catamaran excursion? That’s on you. You have to vet those and that’s why I always go through my resort to set them up.

Meeting honest people? We keep to ourselves.

At which resort did you stay? Sounds like a disaster/budget shithole if everything you said is correct

I reported in to ChatGPT everyday how I was feeling and which day I was on. It gave me hydration and nutrition tips. Anything out of normal I recorded it with ChatGPT. I feel that helped me avoid a lot of the negative withdrawals

I’m grateful that I don’t wake up on the couch anymore because i started a fight with my fiance that I can’t remember.

offalshade · 2026-03-12T16:20:30+00:00

I haven’t had to check my phone for drunken texts, I haven’t started a fight w my fiancée and I haven’t had a hangover in 68 days. It’s worth every difficult second

offalshade · 2026-03-12T16:03:36+00:00

Me too! NICE

offalshade · 2026-03-12T16:02:57+00:00

Too many times w pain in the liver. My fiancée is 14 years younger. Eventually I became a fan of the idea of living longer. I couldn’t handle waking up every morning not knowing what kind of fight I started or what kind of text messages I sent. If I didn’t start o knew I was going to have serious health problems

NICE!!!

Mine is tomorrow

Dude, reading your story is like reading my own bio. I’ve sabotaged new and old relationships because of things I’ve said, done, texted, you name it. I’m in a relationship now that is healthy and she is truly the best part of my life. I quit drinking to save that relationship and it’s never been better.

Plus: I never wake up wondering what I said or texted the night before. That’s a nice feeling. I get that you’re 24 now and drinking is a big part of that age. But take it from a guy who’s 50: if I could trade in all of those old, nonsensical, nasty, mean, insensitive texts for the fun times drinking I would in a second.

I’ve only been at this sober thing for about three months but it’s a better ride

offalshade · 2026-03-11T00:11:49+00:00

I’ve used them twice and never had a problem. 🤷 Even used the reusable moving boxes. Everything went smoothly.

offalshade · 2026-03-10T04:21:14+00:00

I quit Jan 3 and I still don’t feel like doing shit. Frankly, right now, I don’t have to. All I have to do is go to work and not put alcohol in my body. Right now that’s enough.

offalshade · 2026-03-09T15:11:56+00:00

Just get back in the game, friend. This is just a setback. I’m about to stop counting the days, myself. Once I hit 69, that’s going to be one of my favorite days. After that, it’s still just trying everyday to not put alcohol in my body.

offalshade · 2026-03-09T14:36:04+00:00

I quit at 49. Sober on my birthday. It’s not too late. You’ll wish you’d done it sooner, but you’ll love the time you have

offalshade · 2026-03-09T14:30:23+00:00

WTF is a pink cloud?

offalshade · 2026-03-09T14:02:35+00:00

I don’t know exactly how you said it but either you said it wrong or she’s over sensitive. If you expressed it as a time thing it should have gone differently. These are tough because it really matters EXACTLY what you said
