Just throught I’d share.
Good for you
🙏
Congrats, what were your biggest challenges? What and when did you realize it was worth it?
I don’t want to get into specifics, but I just couldn’t live like that any longer. After about a year of sobriety I realized that I didn’t have many positive memories associated with alcohol.
Being sober actually allowed me to start reflecting on my life and lead me to start thinking about things. Ironically, it was also a catalyst into me learning about Marxism as well.
Dude. Sobriety was so important in my radicalization and moving from disaffected and alienated to educated and principled. I didn’t realize how badly alcohol had lead me astray until things got out of hand, and now I too am multiple years sober. Keep it up!
There’s a reason alcohol is pushed so hard here. Congrats to you as well 💪
Good for you. How do you feel after all those years?
I had a period of 8 months sober some years ago. I can handle my alcohol now, though I am slowly starting to drink less and less. It’s been three weeks since my last drink, actually. Sometimes I want to fully quit as well, but since I don’t have a problem and I like to drink a beer every once in a while, I keep wondering if I should.
Big difference between substance misuse and substance use comrade, if you have a healthy relationship with it now thats great and likely doesnt need changing; for some people a clean break is the only way however.
Its all about the relationship you have with it and where it lands on your life priority list; when substances start becoming more important priorities than real life shit is when they tend to become issues.
Yeah, I guess I knew the answer already and it’s yours lol. I don’t know what I wanted to hear.
I see some loser lib already downvoted this 😂
They are sad creatures. Don’t worry about them. Their opinions are wrong.
Being sober is not liberal enough.
That kind of looks like Trump to me a bit lol
Now that you’ve said it, I can’t unsee it
congratulation(s)
That’s a big win and a great success, my best congratulations 👏🏻 I am now 3,5 month alco free (started 1 of May), and continue it to the end of life 🙂
Congratulations! You got this 💪
Congratulations 👏🎉
And here is me who has never touched alcohol ever in lifeIf you haven’t, don’t start.
Not planning here either. (Just not very sure of the future and what it holds for me)
I haven’t either, but that’s bc I’m a minor
Well. I’m well beyond minor now. But it is more about the curiosity didn’t kill the cat (not yet)
As a functional alcoholic who wants to quit (I’ve done it twice, but gave in to temptation), I salute you. The first five or so days are the hardest. Then, it’s like, why would I want that?
Congratulations comrade!
Been sober since March 2016 and it keeps getting better. Good job.

Same here. I do use THC and shrooms sometimes, but those don’t have the negative effects alcohol had on my life. Honestly THC can be a good harm reduction tool.
THC is often described as an ‘exit drug’ for people who need a replacement drug for there addictions that is non-harmfull.
Don’t know why this is downvoted
Helps tons of people get off opioids/opiates and alcohol.
Good work dude.
Thats awesome to hear, i myself am on my journey to being alcohol free. Life is much better without drinking.
I’m proud of you comrade!
