Speaking from experience has a recovered alcoholic. One is to many and a hundred is not enough. Sober date 5th November 95

I'm drug free for 6 weeks tomorrow. Everyday user for 25 years. It's still early days but I definitely feel better

[joppadoni]

100%. Some people can have a drink or two with their dinner, or on a night out and head home early or even stay out all night and sip a few cokes. The other type of person chases the buzz all night, 1 drink is just the gateway to more. Im unfortunately the 2nd type as well, and feel fortunate to have managed to kick the drink.

I hope I NEVER forget how I changed for the worse as a person when I used to drink
It’s those BAD memories that stop me from ever having another drink

[bobbydazzler]

I used to go on drinking binges in my youth. Didn’t last all that long. Only about 30 years. I don’t drink much these days. One thing I never say. “God, I miss those hangovers!”

[sandy-quimsrus]

As Frank Sinatra said, I feel sorry for people that don't drink. When they wake up in the morning that's the best they're going to feel all day.

This is why losing weight is harder than sobriety for some. You can't stop eating all together.

[MrLaydownsally]

If you deny yourself, you want it more

[colinturner]

I agree it’s about control no your limits learn if you have to

[xplorer]

Like Renton said in Trainspotting, ‘we wouldn’t do it if it wasn’t fun.’

[bmclaughlin]

He’s right, you should be able to have a drink without turning into an alcoholic!

[PaulMarkwick]

The trick is to find a passion for something otherwise you’re a dry drunk and that’s the worst of both worlds!

[aidanduffy]

My problem isnt drink it's drugs. But when I'm sober it's easy stay clean the second I have a drink I'm on the phone getting a bag sorted and some pills, so is best not drink

[piersburgoyne]

Sober since jan 10 2024, i dont miss the old me, i miss some of the environments, ild fashioned pubs at xmas, some of me mates (only a few) but prefer not feeling anxious every day, remembering converaations etc, respect to anyone who can do it

[sellerguru-oqix]

Interesting theory. I’m sober 6 years now and only today I had this very thought. Maybe when I’m 70 or so I may have a glass of wine. But for now I’m sober

[neiltitmus]

I never used yo stop drinking on a night out but now if i do go out i will slow down stop and drink soft drinks then maybe hbe another, i havent bern drunk for a year or so now, not had a hangover for a while either

[DarrenLayton-ku]

Do not pick up. You ll lose everything. I know I would. Keep going....take courage....as in the right courage small leaven ruins it all

[johnwatts]

its enjoyable, but unfortunately also physically poisonous. if you can stop for a good long while, you can go back to mild drinking.

[StevenWhatmoughs]

Can’t believe he actually said that to an alcoholic 😮
