Nice. Keep it up. If you could get through yesterday, then you can make it through today and tomorrow. Once your body gets used to not having it, you will feel so much better.

So long,

I hope. I just get so bored on the weekends and at night. I was drinking way more often and alone.

I did all of June dry. It's not that hard once you get out of the "time for a drinky-poo" habit.

Until you break that habit though, saying no at the store is much easier than saying no at home.

If you're drinking because you're bored that's a sign of an alcohol problem

I know exactly how you feel. You know what you gotta do? Work on yourself. Exercise, study, build things, make art etc.

Good job quitting drinking. Take it one day at a time. Even if you relapse one day and get drunk but went sober 3 weeks, start the next day and continue from 3 weeks and fix what caused you to relapse. You got thisbro.

It definitely is, don't lie.

At least, it's a shitty plug in the boredom-shaped hole in someone's unsatisfying life

The hell is even the point of that?
Even the most rampant of drunken drunkards admit that beer doesn't really taste good, outside of Honey Brown.

Man I love the taste of (some) beer

And even if I didnt, an argument could be made for slowly weaning off the pavlovian response that the taste of beer might give you

There's some people who find pure ethanol to taste sweet, instead of "burning".
We're the drunkards.

I love the taste of beer.

That first swig when I get home from work is one of the most glorious things ever.

I watched my dad's life go to hell because of drinking.

DUI's, Car crashes, unemployment, lost his house, a stroke, depression, poverty.

For as shitty as you feel now. Trust me its better in the end when you quit.

good job man keep it up

had my last drink on Sunday. Im kind of in the same boat where i feel like its not so much I need it, but Im more creative when Im drinking and making music. also feels more fun playing games. which is weird because I have no problem doing those things sober. just takes it to another level I suppose
