Amazing :clap1:

I don't want to stop forever because I enjoy it sometimes, but maybe just on ~special occasions rather than every other day

Lady Gaga wouldn't cancel, she'd make it part of the show.

Good luck Stace!

I’ve cut down on my drinking a lot lately as well because I begrudge wasting days hungover now. There’s so much more constructive things I could be doing with my time!

Tony Montana 11-03-2020 11:43 PM

Good luck with this. You did this last year iirc. How far did you get?

Thank you :love:

I reckon if I got hangovers it would stop me from drinking as much :skull:

I can't really even remember it, I probably just did a couple of weeks or something :laugh: I didn't drink anywhere near as much back then though as I have done lately

JerseyWins 12-03-2020 01:17 AM

This is good, glad you are doing this Stacey :clap1:

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:

Yeahhh :joker: I'd probably drink a lot more if it wasn't for hangovers. It's also partly looking out for health but even then, I feel like the hangovers are a nice warning like "ok I can't keep doing this" lol

...it’s obviously something that you have great determination to do, Capri...and you seem a pretty focused person, so I’m sure that you’ll succeed...good luck you...:hug:...(..you won’t need it, you’ll be great and alcohol free...)...

DrunkerThanMoses 12-03-2020 04:57 AM

I quit smoking and have not had one for 8 days so far. Pressure is there to have one but I am determined; also helps one of my friends has given up as well so not alone in trying

Good luck caprimemt, I’ll drink double for you tomorrow night

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

Good luck with your smoking as well, you’ve so got this :clap1:

One of my friends was smoking like a pack a day or something and he cut down to like 3 a day then 1 a day I think and he was doing really well at it.

And :laugh: You’re welcome to it!!!

I never used to either, as you get older you probably will :worry:

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...

Dogeatdog 12-03-2020 08:31 AM

Sucks that I’m no longer gonna have a drinking partner but good luck with this Stacey. It’s good that your trying to make better lifestyle choices and I think you’ll begin to feel a lot better for it. :love:

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.
