This goes hard. Damn.
I let this society ~~kills~~ kill my sobriety
Stoicism corrected that statement for you.
Six and a half weeks sober from weed and counting! Trying to make it to 2026
Hey your insomnia is probably better by now! How were the wild dreams?
The insomnia was the hardest part for me since as a daily user I would previously fall asleep within seconds of my head hitting the pillow. The dreams were incredibly vivid - and the nightmares. π¨ Trying to really reign it in in 2026.
This happened to me too! I also started an SSRI for my anxiety and my psychologist said that would cause my dreams to be more vivid too. I had a dream last night that I accidentally ripped my back skin off and had to go to the emergency room. Then I had to live with my, all of sudden, crack head father in a hostile while I was recovering from surgery. Sometimes they feel like they're nightmares when I wake up but so real when dreaming.
Excellent fuck yeah
Health is for losers.
Go on a Rager that people will talk about for decades.

Too late, spent the last month drinking after 11 months sober π
something thats helped me a lot is remembering that recovery isn't a linear path.
if you're driving from New York to California, then make an unplanned stop in Nebraska, you aren't back in New York. you just gotta deal with the fact you're in Nebraska and move on.
you got this. stay strong.
I fucking love this!
11 months is an amazing streak! I reckon you can do 12 next time, give it another go big fella! We're all cheering you on β€οΈ
Nooo :( I hope you'll get back on track. Setbacks are ok. It took me about 5 years to get sober once I started trying.
Falling off the wagon doesn't mean you have to give up for good, you can always start again. I believe in you. It should be more about overall accumulation rather than the neverending streak. You're allowed to be fallible if you can course correct, no one will look down upon you less.
Detours like that happen to most of us. It's totally worth it once you finally arrive at the place where you don't need it anymore. It's an amazing feeling.

19 months and 6 days sober... but a Lemmy post told me what to do, so I'm going to get fucking drunk.
Too late :3
:3
:3
Letβs all stay healthy and safe so we can experience the pain and torment that is surely in our future β₯οΈ
I'm drunk as I read this.
I've been drunk like twice, both times sucked, not doing it again.
1 week from 2 years sober. Feels good, man
A week away from 2 years without a drink and damn this year's been testing me real fucking hard, I nice cold whisky and cola would go down real fucking nice right now.
I could easily see her make a statement like this. I believe in based Samus.
But... being drunk is the only time when I am social...
But why, though?
There will be no sobriety in this society
Had highball couple of days back and Shochu yesterday. Starting drinking in style, at the tender age of mid-30s.
I drink when I feel like it. I felt like it once last year and twice this year. I've went five years without so much as a beer. I know though that there are those out there that have a problem with moderation and its important they don't imbibe even once.
What client did you post this with? Trying to debug why it's a link instead of the image.
Blorp dev here. I'm copying the thumbnail url into the post url, but perhaps that's incorrect. I'm open to suggestions. Again, not confident I'm handling this correctly, but one advantage of setting post.url is cross posts are compared via url, so setting that url would allow Lemmy to associate cross posts of the same image.
On the rendering side, Blorp scans post.url and if it's an image (e.g. ends in .png), it renders it as an image post. But perhaps not all clients do that.

Thanks Mr. Metroid!
I say, go with the intrusive thoughts.
Day 3 for me. Not giving it up for good, just taking a much needed tolerance break (which I should do way more often than twice a year.)
Usually I compensate for lack of alcohol with more energy drinks, but I'm off those too and it fucking sucks.
