Even if it doesn’t always feel that way. What you’re doin’ by not doin’ is far far better. That other life is a damn nightmare. To those who want to be, a shoutout too. You can get there. And staying there, I find, gets easier all the time. There’s lots of us former drunks out there who will support you. Soberly yours,Me

Anna<a href="https://ohai.social/@pitrouillesque" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@pitrouillesque</a> yes it's hard. There's a reason you or me and so many others choose the <a href="https://norden.social/tags/alcohol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#alcohol</a> as a simple solution. But it's so short-term and it makes it even worse in the long run. You are so strong for choosing the hard <a href="https://norden.social/tags/sober" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sober</a> way now but I am sure it's going to pay off for you!!! And you will come out of this <a href="https://norden.social/tags/stronger" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#stronger</a> and than ever before! You already are. The hardest step you've already taken. You can do the rest. Finally being honest with yourself and others made me feel free again!

Anna<a href="https://ohai.social/@pitrouillesque" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@pitrouillesque</a> Congrats on becoming <a href="https://norden.social/tags/sober" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sober</a> – you can be f***ing proud of yourself! I saw you using <a href="https://norden.social/tags/SobrietyIsHard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SobrietyIsHard</a> ... it definitely is at first. & scary! & sometimes it takes several attempts. That's ok. It's also ok to think day by day– not “forever” right away. What helped me: “Just today I won’t drink… probably not tomorrow either – unless I want to.” & over time, I just didn’t have to ask anymore. It got easier. And now I feel stronger than I ever was with <a href="https://norden.social/tags/alcohol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#alcohol</a> & will get even stronger

Day Use X Mockin' UhI've been sober since July 8th, 2022.The thing that gets me, and irritates me personally more so than if this were not the case, is that I don't even go through any of the mental gymnastics whenever I think about alcohol.I don't think, "eh, maybe I could just have one"; I don't think, "eh, I deserve this" because I've been having either a good day or a bad one; I don't think anything approaching that.I think: "If I want to, I can go to the same gas station where used to buy this stuff, right now, and buy a bottle, and crack it the second I walk back in the door and start chugging. Maybe today's boring just like yesterday was, and every day in recent memory, and tomorrow. Maybe I should just get absolutely hammered right now, alone, like the good old days. Maybe that's not even what I deserve at all; maybe it's exactly what I don't; maybe that's exactly why I should."You wanna know what else? If I didn't think like this, I would've just done it already, and kept doing it, and my liver probably would've exploded by now. I talked myself into drinking as much as I did by being a lunatic, my decision to stop is perhaps the single most rational I've ever made, and I don't stay sober by continuing to think rationally because that's precisely the aforementioned lunatic wants me to do.I stay sober and by extension alive by making peace with the full extent to which my own self destruction really is. That doesn't mean I have to agree; I don't. Disagreement, by definition, necessitates that I acknowledge that that's actually how my brain is wired, and call it what it is. That's how this ends if I ever go back, and I'm not even gonna justify any of it or even pretend to, even to myself. I'm just gonna go straight from 0 to 1,000,000 because that was the original plan. That's why I don't. Either I die of old age or die trying, or I die trying to. There is no third option.I don't hate alcohol; I love that shit.Fuck alcohol.<a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Sober" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Sober</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Alcohol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Alcohol</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/Addiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Addiction</a>

stroz (he/him)Before the awful festivities of tomorrow's holiday, I wanted to take a moment to reflect, as it will mark 17 years of <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/sobriety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sobriety</a> for me, personally.It's been a tough road, and 45/47 definitely has made the past decade rough as all hell. But I keep showing up, one day at a time.My health has declined since the first COVID infection in 2022, but even with these symptoms, it's a world of difference being sober. My liver and kidneys aren't constantly filtering poison from my body, and after 17 years of time off, maybe they're doing pretty great. Take a look at the before and after photos below...70 extra lbs is a lot to carry!If you are questioning whether you need to stop drinking, or picking up that drug of choice: Don't lie to yourself. It's incredibly easy to lie to yourself, very difficult and admirable to reject lying to yourself in this moment.If I can do this, you can do this. Stay strong.
