Day 51

>>18220762
Go and have a nap. No matter what you have to do right now, the consequences of not doing it won't be as bad as starting to drink again.

Take a really cold shower
It shocks the system and reminds you that you are able to withstand any discomfort if you set your mind to it.

>>18220762
Stop thinking.
You've got control over yourself. Assume it
Nobody's controlling you, you control yourself, you only do what you want. What YOU want.

Everything's gonna be fine if you remember this once in a while. Remember that not everything is certain too and you'll become more aware of what surrounds you. Try to contemplate the present too.

I can't seriously image what you're going through but i'm giving my best advice to keep you focused of who you are and what defines you.

>My kids are driving me crazy
>My work really sucks
>I'm pretty sure my wife hates me
I'm pretty sure this was equally true before you stopped drinking

and congrats on having more money, now that you don't waste it on drinks

Not much is different when you're drunk, you're just too drunk to notice half and too drunk to care about the other half.

con't

my brother spent nearly $400 a month on drugs.
now that he's trying to quit he has more money and doesn't have to work as much to make ends meet.

just think about it like this, you're being paid to not drink.

I've been killing a 6-pack a day, sometimes more, for the past 6 years. I've started drinking a bit more lately. Guess I'm starting to descend into full on alcoholism. I just hate the world and have grown so bitter. I know that alcohol doesn't actually help, but it makes life bearable in the evenings. Sometimes I even drunk with friends, which is fun, then come home and drink more alone. Been wanting to quit. Quit for two months last year, then a few weeks earlier this year, but... I really freaking love drinking.

Legit

Don't give up man! I know every day is a struggle but it will only be worse if you turn back to the alcohol. Don't you feel a sense of accomplishment for abstaining thus far? Don't mess with that pride! Stay strong stick it out you will be all the better for it.

Yeah dude, keep your will strong.
My father drank himself to death. It was not a pretty sight.

Pounding liquor because the old lady won't leave me alone for five unbroken seconds. Not OP, everybody please root for him.

Day 51, you're close to 3 months, that's a lot man. You're doing great so hang in there

I mean 2 months, have to stop posting at 2 AM. Still a lot!

Go hug your wife. It will make you feel better.

It's just the withdrawals from being on it for so long. Feeling like you need it is the first sign that it is working right now and your body is getting rid of it. You will need to endure and be patient eventually it will become natural and your moods will not shift so much all over the place.

Trust me when I say this try to have something to replace the craving when you feel it. Maybe tea or coffee or just playing games anything that can take your mind off of it for a bit. Then you will forget about it.

The worst part for me is the anxiety I feel from not drinking.
It drives me crazy

I gotta run or something
