A month off of drugs and alcohol. 3
#21745471 - 05/31/15 04:47 PM (8 years, 7 months ago) |

Developed a drinking habbit lately that's starting to get unhealthy, so in order to proactively prevent myself from losing control I've decided to take a sober month.
Have any of you ever done something like this purposefully and without mandate?
If I violate my plan I'll post in this thread so yall can berate me. Anyone that feels the need can join up, strength in numbers.

I was shocked when I couldn't recall a period of 30 days where I hadnt done any drugs for the last 3 years.
I think there's a lot of potential for personal growth.

Yup, all the time.

Life is a lot better without alcohol tho, no doubt about that.

Recently I've been unclear on the parameters of being an alcoholic. Once I cold turkied a 2 year dope habit because I knew I need to do that for friends and family.

I won't stop drinking (before last night I actually hadn't drank for two weeks, and it was just a beer), but I will volunteer to berate you if you drink again.

Yeah alcohol sucks because it becomes the focal point of socializing. Kind of trippy when you really think about most substances. Most people smoke weed socially, I know a few people who won't even chill unless were smoking. Then you have coffee shops and the focal point of that is socializing over caffeine.

Imagine if life was as simple as going to a coffee shop in the morning and conversing. A weed shop in the afternoon and conversing. A bar at night. Imagine the ideas

i've decided to cut drinking out myself for a good long while.
(lol no but seriously, i'm right there with ya. quitting cigs and nicotine as well!)
it's not so hard, quitting everything for a while. i stopped smoking weed for a whole year and a bit, and cut drinking out for several months and even quit the cigs out as well for long periods of time. it's really not so bad... your body will start to feel a lot better too.

I'm not going to do drugs any more.
I'm not going to do any less, but I'm not going to do any more.
That's what I'd tell girls who asked me to stop using drugs. I wouldn't tell them the second part until they found out though.
I'm such a piece of shit
