30/180 days so far.

1/6th the way there.

Just felt like telling someone.

Aren't you thirsty?
Just kidding. Great to hear it. Swearing off booze ain't easy but you're better for it. Six months was the longest I ever went.

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts (edited )

I don't get "thirsty" (extremely rare if I do) myself and it would be due to boredom mostly or wanting to chill out for a bit if I did drink, but dealing with you alone the boredom isn't possible here for now...

[–] • 2 pts

No, I meant "thirsty" in the context of not having had anything liquid at all, not just alcohol.

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts

I figured you were joking, but I didn't realize you replied to the word "drinking" or whatever as overall.

I did just get some hydroxylic acid... I have one of those hydroxylic acid taps installed in my house. That's so I can get hydroxylic acid whenever I want to. I forget what they call the DHMO taps.

i'm happy for you

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts

Thanks

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts

yeah, i know its tough to do.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

For me it's only tough at times. I have so much stuff I can do if just at times as well and I don't have to really deal with triggers for the most part myself for the most part either such as craving it.

I'm glad I chose this route to take a break rather than 5-10 years down the road when I have some drinking problem alone.

Not sure what kind of drinker you are but in my experience,you’ll want to booze at 3 month intervals (roughly) like c’mon guy you’ve done so good let’s just have 1 to celebrate.if you can do the year your thinking will change.

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts

I'm not quitting because it's a problem more or so. I don't want it to become a problem.

Plus it's really boring or stale so if I did go back myself it would be because I'm not bored or tired of it anymore.

I haven't shot up heroin in over 32 years

In all seriousness, good on ya man

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts (edited )

Those are rookie stats.

I haven't shot up or done meth in over 10 years, heroin in over 10 years, cocaine in over 10 years, ecstasy in over 10 years, bath salts in over 10 years, flakka in over 10 years, krokodil in over 10 years, LSD in over 10 years, mushrooms in over 10 years, salvia in over 10 years, spice in over 10 years, crack in over 10 years, ice in over 10 years, mandrax in over 10 years, angel dust (PCP) in over 10 years, barbiturates in over 10 years, and/or etc in over 10 years.

But I never did those drugs (pretty anti-drug myself - even though I like caffeine if not tobacco myself) in the first place which is basically is that I haven't done any of these in 30 years myself or so. So I haven't done any of those drugs in over 500 years if not in 520 years myself since I've never done one of the drugs above myself. I don't know if all of them have been around 10 years if 30 years for that matter. Some of these new drugs are so new that I'm so lost or confused nowadays myself.

Im on half of those right now

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

troll or serious? If serious that's a ton of drugs to be on, but I've heard people do that kind of stuff myself. They will do cocaine if not other types of drugs and rotate them out of a certain period of time.

[–] [deleted] • 1 pt

Well, I have no comebacks for that

[–] [deleted] • 2 pts (edited )

I took it too far I figure myself.

They do say drugs are kind of like a prison sentence though. If I did that many drugs it would of been like serving multiple life sentences at that point. Why I figure to stay away drugs myself. I don't want one sentence and I especially do not want multiple life sentences (multiple drugs). Have to learn how to fight off multiple drugs (multiple sentences) due to years of drug use and/or drug usage alone and have that sentence or basically the prison sentence(s) of the mind alone just when it comes to fighting them off my entire life. If not just when it comes to using them.

Of course diy-guy2 hasn't done those drugs. Spinning around and getting dizzy makes you forget all about the others.

Good for you. I consume no alcohol whatsoever. Never have. ((Jewce)) is one of the most destructive things to society. Apart from talmudvision. And ((they)) know it. Everything they do has a higher meaning, a spiritual and alchemical significance. Alcohol possesses the souls of those who consume it. The Arabic name for it literally means something along those lines.

Nothing is more unappealing to a woman than a boozer. The way they smell (it oozes from every pore), the way their breaths stink, the broken veins in the cheeks and ruddy complexion, the grey teeth, the belly fat, etc.

I could go on but I won't.

The Holy Bible or Christianity / Catholicism talks about not being a drunkard and/or a drunken fool out in public. I've only been a drunken fool out in public maybe once in my life and no one even said anything. Also you should drink in a careful manner. I want to go back to wine and go with proverbs at some point, but I just want to take a break for now as it's gotten old, stale, and/or boring for the most part. I also don't want it to be apart of me or my life somewhere down the road 5-10 years from now to as well.

1 Peter 5 - Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

Proverbs 20:1 - 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit,

Spot on. Alcohol devours souls.

You sound pretty switched on. Most people don't think or plan ahead. Good on you.

Did you know that in ancient civilizations, if you wanted to be practice certain professions, you were expected not to drink alcohol and not to eat meat.

To me, meat is just as filthy as alcohol. What's your view on that?

Some traditions believe that you take the pain of the tortured animals into you. On a spiritual level.

Russians literally drinking themselves to death as some say and seeing those articles alone from russia really kind of gave me a wake up call or a reality check. It happens here in America to as well, but those articles from russia alone are kind of horrifying. It started happening around 2015 or 2016 for someone like myself and I think that gave me the reality check to all of this coming about now with me wanting to take a break for a certain length of time. It can happen to anyone worldwide or globally.

I eat meat myself and I try to make sure I pray and such. I can't live my life without meat, but I'm not a huge fan of some meat myself. I mostly eat beef myself if not steak. I don't believe they are tortured animals for the most part, but some definitely are from what I've seen or have heard. It's better to get the meat from the wild to me personally or hunt them out in the wild then pray after killing them is what I figure myself. Some places do have cruel practices for different types of livestock and/or animals for that matter from what I've heard or seen myself. Free roaming grass fed livestock if not hunting the animal yourself is the best way to go to me personally.

I do a ton of Christian / Catholic type stuff myself. I figure that keeps me switched on plus I believe in other types of mental activities even if it's just a decent video game.

Well done and strength to you to stay off over the festive season.
