I quit alcohol buddies

Bananatropics26

I quit alcohol. I don't drink anymore. It's no good at all. My lowest point was drinking everyday for 3 weeks vodka guiding me through the day. What a waste of an existence. Alcohol literally made me stupid and emotionally weak. I would get drunk and whine about things. Idc for alcohol. Alcohol is baddddd. You really know alcohol is bad when you try drinking hard everyday for at least 2 weeks. Once you do that you'll be always turned off from it in the future. Every time I drink now it reminds me of when I drank non stop for 3 weeks and I quickly lose interest and do something else or pour it away so I've stopped buying it because I just pour it away anyways when I do buy it lol. I smoke instead that helps me think and concentrate also coffee is good instead of alcohol. But they 3 weeks were sooooo bleak and dark. Alcohol truly is an ugly drug when you really get to know it properly. Beware folks alcohol ain't all it seems.

  • Well done you for making the decision to stop drinking alcohol. Your body will thank you for it, and just think of the money you will be saving that you can now spend on other things.

    A former friend of mine, who also happens to be the mother of one of my son's friends was an alcoholic. According to my son's friend, she had been getting through about 6 bottles of wine a day. Her health began to suffer and her GP made it abundantly clear that if she made an effort to reduce her alcohol consumption, it would prevent her health issues from getting any worse and possibly even reverse some of the damage that had been done. Rather than heeding what the GP had advised, she carried on drinking, resulting in a diagnosis of alcohol-related brain damage. I cannot help but think it is a terribly sad ending to her life.

    Throughout my life I have known many people who have developed an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. The effect it can have on the person, their family and friends, has perhaps contributed to me feeling absolutely determined not to end up going down that same path. On the rare occasions that I do drink alcohol, I stop as soon as I start to feel tipsy. For me, this usually amounts to one or two glasses of Prosecco.
