Good thing is the mods here wont hate me as much for my drunk lunatic ravings :)
I just drove 1/2 hour to an outpatient treatment clinic and they asked me to wear a mask and take a Covid test. I told them to have a nice day. On to the nest place.
I won't personally judge, nor do I have any experience myself with major alcoholism (drank too much in college but am fine now).
I will say though, be careful with the THC. My dad quit alocholism by smoking pot. And now he's just addicted to smoking pot. Honestly, it's almost just as bad. Still spends all his money, but now he just zones out at home watching old black and white shows getting fat.
But hey, if you're able to keep it under control, all the power too ya.
We're all addicted to something. In the grand scheme, being addicted to fitness and self-improvement is far better than most of the alternatives.
I smoked a tiny bit yesterday and got the feeling I don't want to be a lazy stoner which is what I've also been doing. I started shopping home gyms because I don't want to be a couch potato stoner.
Even when it stares you in the face. It's the person not the drug. ;) make your ancestors proud, stop making excuses and fix your core mind.
Thanks for posting. I'm going to give it a shot. I've been a functional alcoholic basically all of my adult life. Nothing seems to work and I'm getting old. We'll see, keep up the fight, fren!
What you say fall is very similar to my situation. I took a toke yesterday to relieve the anxiety and it helped. Congrats on day 40! I have some gummies and might try that today.
Since they have THC in them, will they ship to every state or only legal states?
Funny it's illegal in CO I thought they legalized weed and shrooms too
interesting
i get so thirsty for a 40oz
but it really is a waste of money
So proud of you pede! YOU CAN DO THIS! We are here for you. Keep going going in Jesus' name. Amen!
Proving that you've got grit. Combined with quitting cold turkey and getting thru the worst of the withdrawal symptoms, means that you've got some real grit. So you actually can do this. Keep your head right. Keep moving forward.
It's not easy. But it gets progressively easier. It takes a while, but after some time it is really easy because your perspective will change - someday you'll look back and wonder what the hell you were doing. Keep your head right. Keep moving forward.
You'll have moments of weakness. Just get thru them and they will pass. Make the right decisions and better times will become habit and that will feed more good habits. Keep making the right decisions and better times will simply become your life. Sober life is better life. Way better. Keep your head right. Keep moving forward. Just keep moving forward.
Do you have a sponsor and work the steps
Good on ya! I wouldn't trust anybody without enough sense to stop playing pandemic theater to give me advice or help. As someone who went from drinking like a fish to completely giving it up, here are a few things you won't miss:
The final nail in the coffin for me was when I started carrying all the time. If some piece of crap is enough of a threat to shoot, I don't want there to be any doubt that I was sober so the bad guy doesn't get me sent to jail, too.
That proves to me you’re already on the road to success. Stay strong. There are so many people who love you that you’ve never known. Always remember that!
Treatment facilities are notorious as Covid Petri dishes. This protocol (though flawed) is in place to protect the clients since many of them have very weak immune systems due to years of drug abuse and inadequate nutrition. Some even have AIDS.
Whatever you have to do even if you have to wear a mask, please put your Sobriety First. (God really First, then Sobriety). Just don't ever get the Covid vaxx.
