July 2nd-I had 1 beer.
July 3rd and 4th-didn’t drink
July 5th I started Zoloft.
Haven’t craved alcohol or weed ever since AT ALL. I guess that gives me ten days of sobriety even though it’s the 11th day.
It’s a scary world so I can’t guarantee it lasts forever. But today, I feel like being sober once again.
I don’t think it’s the Zoloft alone but maybe the way it interacts with my other meds makes it so I have no cravings so far??
Congrats that’s an achievement
I was filling up at a gas station and I saw the 40oz bottles of fresh beer starring at me saying drink me, it hot and your thirsty. But I said no, I’m going home and drinking my coffee. And that was that
Lol not a fan of 40 ozes!!! I was a craft beer kinda guy. How long sobriety do you have again?
Couple weeks so far
Well keep it up man!!! We can support each other both early in recovery from alcohol!!
I cot this cbt book I’m going to read called “overcoming problem drinking”. I’ll try to share the nuggets when I find them
Thats how I quit really every year I just got less and less interested in it, now even thinking about it makes me want to throw up. Wish I had the same mindset back when i was young
Why drives me is I blacked out and told my wife I was going to kill her. No I didn’t even move from my seat and passed out shortly after that and I love my wife more than anything. I honestly think it was some sick drunk test for her to see how she’s react but it scares me shitless. So that’s my motivation and it’s pretty strong.
Ok first rule of thumb: 2 beers a day is the limit for safe /normal drinking. I would drink those together, so about 66cl beer is it per day.
congrats! that’s great
