I used to love to drink, I started drinking in high school. In 1990 I was put in a group home. I was addicted to crack at the time but eventually got clean near the end of my stay. But in the beginning I partied a little with some of the people there. We would just have a few beers. One day I was walking down the street with a guy from the house and we ran into a former resident.
He asked us if we wanted to get some beer and we went to 7-11 and got a couple six packs and went into a parking lot and sat down behind a car to drink. I remember I was on my second beer and something hit me and I held up the beer and said, āThis is the last beer Iāll ever drink.ā
And it was. I havenāt had any alcohol in 31 years.
I havent drank since i got diagnosed and lockdown started when i drink i have to be in my room with nobody seeing i got the alcohol since my mother doesnt want me to drink i think i will end up drinking in the future since i still desire it i dont think i had many issues with alcohol except for one day when i started drinking in the morning and did stupid ā ā ā ā .
I donāt drink anymore. I hate the way alcohol makes me feel. Itās all a waste of time and money in my opinion. Iād rather spend my money on clothes and movies.
I donāt drink. I never really needed the excuse of alcohol to act silly, and I much prefer doing so when I am in full control of my faculties. I like being the sober one at parties, because when everyone else is drunk and Iām sober, we function on about the same wavelength. Plus, I can drive us to midnight diner runs.
I am trying to cut back a huge deal. I am going from having a drink every day after work to just having a drink once a week. A drink after work may not sound like a big deal but sometimes that single drink is half a glass or more of hard liquor.
I was almost successful, I managed to cut back and only drank twice this past week, once on each day of my weekend. (Honestly I didnāt try that hard not to drink this weekend since it was new years). I have noticed a drastic change in my legs, I had started getting severe frequent leg cramps with the slightest movements of my legs in the wrong direction or from flexing them and now they are probably 60 or 70% back to normal. Crazy.
I donāt think Iāll ever cut out drinking completely though.
