Havent drank in 8.5 weeks-Remember now why I dont drink and why I do drink.

[Getter_done]

Better sleep, no hangover, no stupid regretful drunken actions, better mood, more energy, feel more stable, depression and anxiety down, higher self esteem, feel more creative/imaginative, more connected to the world, feel more like myself.

But at the same time i feel like too much of myself, mind racing, i get a different kind of anxiety and depression, and i feel like i need to dull myself with alcohol. Ideally it would probably be good for me to drink a few days a week, to get a good buzz but not too drunk. But i have shown in the past that i start to drink too much and become dependant on it and turn into a very different person.

Can i learn from my lessons this time and learn to moderate, or will i just go back to being a drunk and i shouldnt drink at all?

old habits die hard

You sound a lot like me boyo.

I wish there was an alternative to alcohol. The chit is poison, but it sure does the trick to help me relax and dull life in general.

I've tried green and it's not for me. Don't enjoy being couch locked with cotton mouth paranoid out of my fukkn mind.

Ask your doc for a low dose (like 25mg) zoloft. Works wonders for me for a while before I got myself off of it.

Try meth?

Don't drink at all friend, live well. You're doing good.

Thinking you can handle it moderately after you have recognized you haveva problem with it is just lying to yourself and will ultimately lead to the same problems.

I started buying NON alcoholic seltzer when i stopped drinking. Gives me the bitter/bubbly taste i liked with beer. Can drink a few while relaxing.

Your senses will be plenty numb when you're dead, enjoy them while you have them.

[Getter_done]

Don't drink OP. There's no point in numbing the senses

True

Your life is better when you don’t drink, brah. Find other things that fill the void.

[ScaleAndSteel]

Even in moderation, self-medicating anxiety with booze sounds like a wrong reason to drink

[OT2000]

Like I said last time, don’t drink. You’re an alcoholic and you can’t control it.

Fuk, thats true

[blazenbb]

I always say the same thing after I’ve quit. “Everyone” else can do it in moderation. I will too this time. May be fine for a bit, but before I know it, it’s damn near back to the same old chit

[gtg]

Read somewhere that it takes actually 2 yrs for a alcoholic brain to return to normal. stay stafe and do cardio, eat healthy. Read a book or play games or Watch 1-2movie everyday like this guy
