Me 2 weeks ago

Babayaro. 11-03-2020 08:01 PM

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

Cherie 11-03-2020 08:20 PM

I don't drink much now, I cant handle being hungover, so its not worth my while giving up

Crimson Dynamo 11-03-2020 08:20 PM

Mint not another attempt to avoid the inevitable?. Don't forget alcohol kills Covid. This is the wrong time to give up the cure.

Sugar keeps posting about alcohols benefitting the covid

I don't get hangovers (or at least very rarely) but I'm not here for spending my money on alcohol every day :worry:

Good decision. Hopefully you will succeed.

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.

Queen of innoculation

Cal. 11-03-2020 11:11 PM

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
