I’ve been sober for almost a year now. I must confess, I kind of miss it, but my depression is 50x worst if I drink a lot.

About once a month I might have a cider (if it is a hot day). Can’t remember last time I was drunk - 5 years ago at least

I come from a family of very heavy drinkers. Over the years have gained some issues with drinkers in general. So rarely drink. .Ironically even when I do I can usually hold my liquor or 95% of the time know when I’ve had enough. Drinking’s never been much of a vice for me and can take it or leave it.

The only exception is dancing. Often the only way to get on the dance floor. I don’t make a total fool of my self but has been close one or two times.

Anyway think it was before Xmas since I drank anything.

Two months ago I would have answered rarely. Got to get back to that state. The major motivating factor in my drinking is to get out there an socialize. Been attending the best bar I’ve found yet for this purpose, everyone in there opens up. All you gotta do is say something. The conversations aren’t just about the weather and crap like that either. Math, science, music, Lawrence lifestyle, alcohol, tobacco, one guy I was talking to seemed way smarter than I. Kept referring to the “corporation” and a bunch of other ■■■■ that was going on illegally in big business.

I can’t stay away from the place. It’s Friday so I’ll probably head down there around 5 pm. Got a barista who is pretty stunning all together. You can tell she’s not like the others. The rest of the staff is pretty cool too.

Recently I cut out my caffeine consumption beyond 4 cups in the morning. That kind of led me to drink more alcohol.

I’m just making excuses I guess.

Alcohol is next on the list though. Then I’ll cut back to only only going out with friends and I’ll just drink water.

Ah I get about a miles walk in every day I go down there. Even more exercise if I bike directly from my house. After the last couple weeks it has left me sore and I’ve lost about 5 lbs.

Bryan, I’m getting paid today, let’s have a few drinks!

I know places like that too, where the conversation flows as much as the beers.

I also think it’s pre-req. to be good looking if you tend bar, have fun with that!

I’ve been clean and sober for 6 years.

I have to admit… I’ve romanticized my days with XTC and that is what I miss more then drinking. It’s odd to me how even with the drinking… the brain really remembers the short lived fun… and seems to block out the days of depressive crash and deep head circus after wards.

I don’t drink unless I’m at my sister’s mansion partying. I much prefer weed over alcohol.

Clean and sober for 23+ years thanks to AA. My daughter has never seen me drunk.

Yah, no kidding. Don’t miss having to find my clothes the next morning. Or my wallet. Or my car. Or having to check the car for dents, dings, blood, and body parts after finding it. (Never hurt anyone with my vehicle, but it was always a big fear the morning after. Not enough of a fear to stop me from drinking again later that day, however.)

I totally don’t miss that ■■■■.
