Inspiring stuff, please feel free to share anything. Up until Monday night I hadn't gone without a drink in over 5 years.I just wanted to chime in and say good luck and good wishes to Galt and Ladyboy on their quest. I'm coming up on 4 years sober after decades of being a drunk. My body, my mind, my friends and my wallet are all much happier.
Had some crazy dreams when I stopped drinking for awhile....crazy
Like a party on a world where the ground was at a 45 degree angle and dazed and confused matthew mcouhnegy followed me around....woke up and shook my head...shit was amaze
Im just stopping after a few weeks of drinking every night. I did the big one stopping after nearly a decade of nightly blackout drinking. Even with the cut down method it was a fucking bitch.I just wanted to chime in and say good luck and good wishes to Galt and Ladyboy on their quest.

The reason I was successful was because I am an extremely stubborn bastard with a chip on my shoulder. I started viewing booze as an adversary. Once it became me against it, I viewed fighting the urge to drink as a direct challenge, and I went at it head on, fists swinging(figuratively, of course).Inspiring stuff, please feel free to share anything.

better every day. Got twelve hours of sober sleep last night. Cheers.How you holdin' up@Galt?
That's sort of my mentality as well, keeping two beers in the fridge just to have something to say fuck you to.The reason I was successful was because I am an extremely stubborn bastard with a chip on my shoulder.

Instead of thinking "One won't hurt", I thought "Fuck you, you will not beat ME!"
Once I finally came to that point, the main war was over, and the remaining battles were won before they started.
The dreams are so real at times they convince me of multiple dimensions...no shit.Hahahaha ill see if I can cut and paste my two dreams nights 1 and 2 of quitting the drink. As you say they are insane. I actually remember waking up after the third night pissed that I did dream up some insane shit.
Hahahaha yeah let me get those posts about mine to share. I true insight into how fucked in the head I is.The dreams are so real at times they convince me of multiple dimensions...no shit.
I stopped everything to save money and do more productive shit around the house and with my son. I haven't seen a marijuana in so long!I didn't stop drinking.
I feel fantastic.
Welcome to the wagon brother. What was your previous consumption like in terms of quantity and frequency? Im way out the other side of the tunnel now do anything I can do to help you please let me know.I stopped drinking too. Had a dream the other night about the apocalypse. Legit some Mad Max type shit. We were hold up in a junk yard and I could taste the dust blowing in. We were making some kind of vehicle. It was intense.
Tapered off slowly over the years. I was heavy in the bottle after Iraq and it ruined everything. Wife left and took the kids to Tampa. Moved back to Louisiana with family in 2010 and started dating my high school crush. We had my son in 2012 and I left hard liquor alone. Went from beer often, to just weekend, to just when with friends, to nothing anymore. Weed was a daily for awhile due to back pain from a motorcycle accident. Then, it was just a thing when my son wasn't home. Then I gave away 7g just to get it out the house. It's easy, for me. I go to the gym if I start getting cravings for either and work it off.Welcome to the wagon brother. What was your previous consumption like in terms of quantity and frequency?

Thanks Uncle, helped a friend kick benzos last year, it involved a lot of alcohol. Seeing as I have a bit of an addictive side to me I really don't want to go on a roundabout. Just writing this out has steeled my resolve. I was thinking about heading out with my girlfriend and her colleagues, mostly because of ego. Girl is 19 eh, can't really keep her locked up. Going out with her would probably lead to me drinking. Thanks.I would have recommended having some diazepam or phenobarbital around with the stash of weed, candy and soda pop. takes the edge off and helps prevent seizure in withdrawal. But then, I wasn't here; didn't know.
Good luck friend, this is probably long overdue.

Ah, since we're here, and before I forget, you still haven't checked that message I sent to you a few days ago now. Go ahead and check it out, you'll get a kick out of it I think; it's concerning some old friends of ours. Vutu got his. Hopefully the link is still up.Thanks Uncle, helped a friend kick benzos last year, it involved a lot of alcohol.

seizures are no joke I hear but statistically very few folk get them based on what my doc told me but that was personal advice, I think some of the indicators are IIRC;I would have recommended having some diazepam or phenobarbital around with the stash of weed, candy and soda pop. takes the edge off and helps prevent seizure in withdrawal.
