I started sobriety a few weeks ago.


That sounds dramatic, but really all I did was choose to have some time off the booze for a few months. My aim is to be alcohol-free until May/mid-May and have a few sober nights out before then. And the end goal is to be able to handle my drinking better and not over-do it/relying on being drunk to have a good time.

YESSSS MARC :clap1:

I did it a couple of years ago and honestly I didn't even care about drinking... for me I'd definitely say it's more fun to drink when you're with friends/in that environment, but it's not really a priority either. I drink way more on my own than with friends so it's not much of a problem

Same for me, I want to be able to control it better and not do it all the time just because I feel like it

Let's see if you can stick to it :fan: And maybe you already REALLY enjoy drinking but tbh if you can limit yourself to like once a week, twice a month, or something like that I think you'd enjoy it even more. A nice day/night of drinking should feel kinda like a reward imo :dazzler:

This is actually soooo true. Now you’ve said that I’ve thought about it and you’re right... I used to enjoy the times when I drank way more when it was less often because it was something exciting/different. :clap1: Ultimately I guess I just want it to be casually though or whenever there’s an event etc

It’s weird... for me it was the opposite. I used to get horrible hangovers quite a few years back when I was like 18-21 or something but then it just stopped. :omgno:

...so basically your blood is like a vaccine for hangovers ...if we inject a bit into everyone before their drinking session, their hangover will be erased...

This is what I do pretty much. I've been drunk at most 4 times a year for about 9 years now... just things like weddings/stag nights.

That said, I think the last time I had alcohol was nearly 18 months ago and I didn't bother at the last wedding I was at :joker:.

Honestly though, people assume if you say you don't drink that you must "be sober" because you "had a problem". No I just got bored of it! Overdid it when I was at Uni (and to be fair... latterly at school) and the appeal has just completely vanished now. Really for the last year od Uni it was "going through the motions" anyway... was still going out drinking heavily but it wasn't all that fun and the hangovers were rough. Pointless.

Yeah I think that even makes it a bit more enjoyable. I used to LOVE drinking at events or if I went out with friends etc, but now it's just... normal?

And that's so true as well... last time when I quit for 9 months people always asked why and assumed it was because there was an underlying reason for choosing to quit but I just didn't want to drink every weekend

Sorry it's your thread Stacey, but tonight I went on my first ever sober night out and managed to stay alcohol-free!

Although, I don't think I'll go on many more because it's not that enjoyable at all lol. Drunk people are unbearable when your sober, it's far too noisy and drinking more than two bottles of becks blue, etc fills your stomach right up! I knew if I had one drink tonight (which I was close to doing) then I'd keep going, therefore I'm chuffed with myself for not caving :)

I do recommend at least once going to a nightclub sober. Just perch in a corner and observe. It's like watching a David Attenborough documentary, really fascinating!

Oh I was in one last night hahaha

I just wasn't feeling it and tried to dance/have fun but felt too conscious of my surroundings if that makes sense. I left after 20 minutes and went and got pizza :joker:

Day 5 COMPLETE :dance:

Today was a little hard... I weirdly really felt like alcohol in the morning? But after some monster energy I was fine :dazzler: Then my roommate invited me out to the bar with his friend but I said no bc alcohol and also some guys kept asking me if I wanted a drink later on but I still didn't... smoked instead and it was just as good.

Definitely feeling better/clearer mind for not drinking so I'm happy with it :clap1:

Are people STILL going to bars over there??? I'd say the coronavirus quarantines should help staying sober (well maybe not if you have alcohol around tho) but it seems like nothing will stop you UK drunks from going to the bars still! :fan:

Yeah people aren’t really bothered about it/taking it seriously :joker:

I spoke to a few people tonight about it and the responses were like “eh if we die then we die”, “I don’t really think it’s that serious”, “there are conspiracies about corona” etc so yeah you get the idea :joker:
