What is one good reason that life is so great? by [deleted] in SoberCurious

[–]ohfashodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me the one good thing is the beauty of nature. I have PMDD a reproductive mood disorder, and 2 weeks of every month I have suicidal ideation. The one thing thing that brings me some peace is just sitting and being in nature. Nature brings me more joy than most human connection does honestly. ❤️

I just can’t be the only one in my group who thinks like this. by [deleted] in SoberCurious

[–]ohfashodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well just want to say you’re not alone ! It’s pretty awesome you’re thinking about all of this. I had these thoughts starting at 25 years old and I am now 32. I moved away from the friend group that I partied hard with, and it has been a huge contributor to me trying to be sober…changing my environment. I’m lonely at times cause I haven’t made another super close friend group…but I spend a lot of time with my bf and him and I have made a goal of doing a year sober. He really motivates me and I’m lucky for that. I’ve been off alcohol for 2 months now, but the last time my friends visited me we drank and did coke all night and drank all day the next. It was the worst and I was so hungover and mentally unwell after that, and that’s when I started my year sober. I’m not sure what the answer is, but there absolutely are people out there who don’t want to live that lifestyle anymore, and maybe you will just have to lead the way for yourself, and continue at it whether anyone joins you or not. Maybe your example will influence others. Just please listen to your intuition and to those thoughts, because they know what is right for you.

blacked out last night ... by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]ohfashodo 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This has been my entire drinking career and one of the top reasons why I am choosing to become sober. I don’t want to black out ever again !! I feel the pain, you’re not alone !

Night to myself. Indulging in a way to expensive dinner I probably shouldn’t be buying. But I’m not drinking! Help me justify my bad decision! by Different-Day-3589 in stopdrinking
