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, it’s not an easy thing to do, the change isn’t instant, I remember being permanently tired for the first 6 months. I discovered alcohol at the age of 15, it made me seem less awkward. It obviously helped me mask what I now know is autism. Unfortunately this love affair with alcohol continued for the next 40+ years. Realising I’m autistic was the start of changing my life. I’ve been alcohol free for 19 months and formally diagnosed since June. I’m changing career and moving 250 miles away from my home town, I too realised I didn’t have friends, they were drinking buddies, I don’t see them anymore. I thought alcohol was helping my anxiety, it was fuelling it. Obviously I will always be autistic, I now have a clear mind and recognise how to change a situation.
