Your local anarchist.
Venting a bit to you guys
I had to kick my habit of intoxicating myself. I’m (mostly) sober now, don’t drink or take hard drugs anymore. I was an alcoholic, would drink half a bottle of whiskey before my clerk shift when I was at my worst. I could and would drink a whole bottle of liquor in one sitting. Downing a full cup of liquor was my party trick haha.
My psychiatrist started me on meds over a year ago that are processed by my liver, so he told me I can maybe have a couple of beers once or twice a month. I haven’t really even bothered, until last weekend I went to a party. I brought a huge bottle of whiskey, intent on drinking half of it myself. I don’t even remember how it feels like to be drunk, I just remember that I always got really happy when drinking. Anyways, I took a sip of whiskey and I couldn’t stomach it! I looked around at everyone else drinking, and had a sobering realization; my drinking days are over.
My medication is like reverse psychedelics (anti psychotics). The neurons that LSD and mushrooms turns on, my medication turns off. So now I’m like getting a reverse high, going low.
Sobriety. I’m not completely there yet, just mostly. That’s all I’ll say about that. It’s a whole change, going from being wasted all the time to being sober and medicated 24/7. I’m extremely medicated haha.
Anyone here willing to share their past struggles with sobriety? What helped? I’ve been to group substance abuse therapy quite a few times, I’m not sure if it really helped, I never really vibe with group therapy in general.
