Election night November 2020

Puked my guts out after the election was stolen.

Haven't had a drink since then.

Almost 7 years.

Got tired of it, and then got tired of being tired so I quit.

Not a drink since and never looked back!

I drank heavily for many years, then got divorced and I never think about it anymore. It's been four months so far.

I drank 35 years. In 2017 I stopped cold turkey. No meetings, and I still smoke a joint now and then.

No cold medicine or mouthwash with alcohol.

My credit, health, and sanity are finally getting better after nearly 5 years off the stuff.

Yeah it does a number on your finances without you even noticing. Let's say a $15 12 pack of decent beer and two $10 bottles of wine per week, that's $140 per month.

And that's just the drinks, not even counting the bad decisions it leads to.

Plus its just way too many calories.

It has been one hour or so since my last drink. I am sitting here wishing I had weed. My only sources are an ex-boyfriend or a moronic cousin. The cousin will trap me into an hours long conversation about how more guns will solve all of our problems. The ex-boyfriend will trap me into a conversation about how more pacifism will solve all our problems. I just want to get high. Instead, I drink.

I drink way to much.
Every night I want to quit but after 30+ years it's hard.
 Quoting: angryonion


After 40 years of hard drinking, I quit Liquor 6 months ago and have zero desire to drink it ever again.

I do drink beer every night but I have been tapering it off from a 12pk down to 6-8 a night.

By October I will begin skipping drinking days and steadily increase the days I don't drink.

No amount of alcohol is safe for human consumption. It's a poison.

The poster who said they never liked the taste is very wise, you listened to your body.

Most everyone else succumbs to the peer pressure and propaganda regarding alcohol.

Re: How long since your last drink? How often do you drink? Trying to quit/cut back on alchohol thread.
83 days!!

Not the first time I’ve tried to quit drugs and alcohol, but the longest

Every other time I lived in denial that I could still use/drink a little or here and there. Went to treatment, never faced any of the problems.

Never thought I’d enjoy AA, but it’s changing my life. At 37, I’m finally growing up. It’s tough feeling behind those I know my age and even younger. No kids, never married, still rent.

But I have my health, a great career, family and friends who support me and all the things I need at the moment. Pray for anyone on this journey.

Grateful!!

Its not just peer pressure and propaganda, there's a reason people drink even when alone.

Its and easy way to kill some time and forget about life's stresses for a while.

Its not healthy, but I understand why people do it.

Re: How long since your last drink? How often do you drink? Trying to quit/cut back on alchohol thread.
I like to feel the affect from alcohol once a day before lunch.

I will have one shot of vodka and follow that with one beer. That is the perfect amount for me. I have no need to drink more.

Then I eat my lunch and have no desire to any more alcohol until tomorrow before lunch.

This works for me because I don't want to be under the influence all of the time.

Re: How long since your last drink? How often do you drink? Trying to quit/cut back on alchohol thread.
It has been 8-9 years for me since I was a drinker or was drunk.

I have had a few, like less than 5 drinks per year, but only every extremely rare once in a while if it is a special occasion or something I'll have a nice scotch or something along those lines.


Don't miss it.
It is nice to have a relatively clear head.


Also I kind of feel like I "left it all out on the field" if you know what I mean. I did that stuff when the time was right, and I did it to the fullest, (traveled abroad in college, worked in my 20s as a professional musician, did a little bit of touring and hard partying) had a lot of fun, and plenty of headaches and vomiting, and recklessness, made it out mostly intact and without harming anyone and I have moved on.
