Spent the last two years basically wasted. Surprisingly have moved up a lot in my life in that time, something to be said about the functional alcoholic.
I'm making this post because I feel like fucking hell, and I'm tired and it's like every good feeling has been replaced by dog shit.
But I'm not like craving booze right now and so I guess I'm sort of not dependent on it at the moment. I've been active too, going to shows and parties and such. They've been dramatically less fun, but at least I'm not holed up and away from society like every other time I've tried to get off the sauce.
That's nifty.
Probably will have a drink sometime soon, whatever. Just nice to prove I don't actually HAVE to drink I guess.
Hey nice, I am not you but I wouldn't tempt myself with a drug while quitting. I smoked at that sabotaged my efforts a few times before I quit. I'm not exactly down with the AA type always an addict thinking, but it is worth remembering that brains take to things differently and vulnerability can remain. I don't take nicotine or coke anymore because while I'm pretty sure I would be able to use it and stop I know it would be unpleasantly hard to do so.
I drink to much atm, it got out of hand during a bad period of chronic pain and it's been a struggle at times. Posts like this are encouraging.
