Redpill me on quitting alcohol forever i over drink too much everytime
IdkYou don't really need booze to do stupid shit or be social.
>>77010766Why would I
>>770107663 weeks sober here. It reaches a point where the negatives outweigh any positives so massively that you just cannot continue with it. I am an alcoholic who relapsed over the Christmas period, can barely remember anything of what happened (so even if I did have fun I'll never know about it) and when I finally had to get sober I spent 3 or 4 days in hellish withdrawals. If you're an alcoholic then at some point you just have to completely cut it out of your life. The only thing people like us find in a bottle is misery and slow death.
the time you spend hung over in bed you will never get back, it's pure waste
I need a redpill on quitting weed. I’ve been sober for a few months now but I’m craving some again
>>77010792Just do it man. One can hurt especially after a few months
>>77010766>overdrinkNigger, theres no such thing as underdrinking, just fucking dont do it
>>77010766>3 hours of funvs>3 days of Hell.>3 weeks before you can return to peak physical performance.>3 months before you look normal again.It's like being gluten intolerant. You can, but eventually you realize the negative effects aren't worth it. Or maybe they are depending on who you are.
>>77010860I mean i drink to the point i blackout and start trowing io on myself>>77010860I do it as a sort of stress relief from my job and lack of sleep for my insomia during work days
Booze is for special occasions and vacations. Not a daily ritual, not even a weekly ritual. Only no discipline losers disagree.
>>77010792let the craving pass, for now. once you're off it for a couple more months, you should be able to just have one. i was smoking weed daily for 6 years. took a couple relapses to kick that habit. now i allow myself to smoke a joint every once in a while (like 4 times a year), making it a rule to never smoke 2 consecutive days. good living
>>77010766I'm in my late 30s now. Drinking past the point of getting a small buzz is a nightmare. You get maybe 2 hours of fun then,>bloating>spinning room>diarrhea>vomiting>multi-day hangovers>>77010771I drank over the holidays but didn't go overboard. Still had an upset stomach the day after followed by diarrhea.
>>77010766the less you depend on a chemical the cooler you are. I was a voluntary alcoholic for years and you will never be haunted by your actions when you are sober compared to drunk... my brain loves to torture me with reminding me of something stupid or cringeworthy I did.sober just feels better. maybe switch to a little weed. nothing wrong with it
>>77010766Take it one day at a time and avoid triggers until the cravings diminish. Every time I get the urge to drink I watch videos of drunk drivers people being arrested by cops and they always look like morons. Also r/stopdrinking is unironically a good resource.
>>77010998> Booze is for special occasions and vacationsI drink 4 times a week or even more especially in the last 4 months
it should come naturally if you're not a retardwith enough experience it's easy to consciously identify being a bit tipsy and remain in control anyway because you don't want to look stupid which of course takes a lot of fun awaywhen you get shitfaced and can't control yourself anymore you get sick on the next day, last time I got drunk I didn't just get hungover, I also got a cold AND hemorrhoidsand I felt stupid for the things I did last nightit's a shitty drug that's popular only because the lobby is too strong
>>77010766It's not even a good drug. There are about a dozen other easily available drugs with fewer side effects and better highs.
>>77010766If...>...you are prone to alcoholism or have family history of itnever ever drink. Choose water, apple juice, protein shakes, or coconut water.>...you don't need it, but feel like it occasionalyhave maybe two drinks a weekend once a month>...you want to drink although you know it's badstop drinking at least for lent seasons before Easter and Christmas at leastAny amount of alcohol is bad for your body and psyche. Short- and long-term.Quitting is an improvement on your life's quality in any case.
>>77011098No one in my family drink more than like 3 soft drink max celebrating once in a blue moon, my mother would pass out if she drink a 6 pack, i started to drink as a cope
>>77011050Not him I stopped taking edibles (delta9 but same thing) because of my fear about my heart health/blood pressure. I’ve also been off of it for a while, should I just not bother with it again? Whenever I was stoned I always felt numb in my limbs and my chest felt like it was racing; which is the exact opposite effect of what I wanted from something that was supposed to just mellow me out.
>>77010766being sober - leads to - being clear-headed - leads to - better life choices - leads to - better habits - leads to - better lifebeing sober = better life
You already need air, water and food to survive.Adding alcohol, tobacco or drugs to the list is just not worthy
>>77010766Start taking GLPs it reduces desire for alcohol and other drugs.
If you really can't live without it like me try to moderate it to once a week and only drink quality and low calorie stuff.I have seen many pictures of people losing fat simply by quitting alcohol and without their diet
>>77010768You don't need money to have fun either, but it makes it a whole lot easier.
>>77010938you need 3 days to recover from a hangover?????
>>77011242if I drink for two days, the hangover lasts three days.
>>77010766I have pancreatic insufficiency, malabsorption, and my tummy hurts basically every single day all day. I didn’t drink nearly as much as those hardcore alcoholics you hear about. It wasn’t worth it and I contemplate suicide constantly
>>77011242Then "hangover" in the sense of the headache lasts maybe 3 hours. It's the insomnia, mental fatigue, anxiety, and other mental problems that create 3 days of Hell. Alcohol withdrawal nightmares are no fucking joke.
>>77010766at the end i drinked some beer to cope with the stress
>>77010766Are you drinking alone or with "friends"? Alcohol isn't worth the empty calories. If you can't get together with your peers without booze, you should cut those people out of your life. >>77010792It's expensive and adds up fast. Looking back to when I regularly used it, I lament about how much money I collectively wasted on it and think about how I could've used it instead on nicer clothes or investing into retirement.
Ignore these pussies dyels anon and listen hereTreat it like a calorie, don't drink beer, limit spirits, you can a do a shot before going on to something else, wine is the best, you can drink a glass or a bottle daily but don't go overSmoking, energy drinks, lack of sleep, not enough g per protein per day(should be above 120g at least) shit training routines will affect you far more than alcohol ever will, if you are a schizo counting calories combine vodka with soda water to be safe but if you are already on a deficit it doesn't really matterAnyone that did team sports or any competition drank themselves to oblivion after matches and most still performing after 25 function on daily alcohol(daily as in controlled not getting shitfaced daily) and proper training routines, at least that is how it is in Eastern Europe where i'm from.If you don't have dogshit genetics and train enough it will be an extra calorie and nothing else, the Romans conquered their empire on bread and wine Combine lifting with martials arts and swimming, hiking if you live close to the mountains in the weekends, pray to God and go out and be happy
>>77010766alcohol is pretty shit nutritionally. Only have a few drinks if you're out with friends. No need to be a total teetotaler but you do you.I used to drink 4-5 times a week but now I drink twice a month on average. Way easier to stick to my routine and diet without chugging vodka every day kek
Alcohol is so incredibly stupid that it is amazing it has such a stranglehold on people and our daily lives.
>>77011265>>77011334oh shit you mentionwd a 3 hour buzz which for me is 2 beers
>>77011801based its the same shit where I am from. Pretty much all the athletes drank. If it was such a problem then that wouldn't be the case. Its just empty calories and you can compensate for it with a little planning.
Prematurely ages you like shit
>>77010792live a scary life where weed only fills you with anxiety and dread thats how i quit
>>770107665-HTP, SAM-E, and a basic multi vitamin supplement helped me with withdrawals so I wouldn't relapse. Trying to quit cold turkey always led me to relapse but I'm almost 4 years sober now. It sounds like you're recognizing that it's not fun anymore so you're on the right track. You'll have more time to lift and your gains will improve drastically.
to stop drinking you just need to get obsessed with getting a six packwhen i got obsessed with hitting 12% bf it was plain as day that alcohol is an absolute death knell. high dense calories and propensity to gain belly / visceral fat and limits muscle growth
>>77010766Do you smoke?I recently quit smoking and switched to vape and my desire to drink nosedived.Was normal to drink a 12 pack with shots on a friday night.Now I drink like 4 drinks and I lose all interest and just want to eat and go to bed.
>>77011985haha wamituktuk wamituktuk
kekke spamhe posts alcohol threads every single day. he just posted this thread on multiple boardshe's a 38 year old trooned out wog btw. he doesn't go outside. his life revolves around spamming 4chan.
>>77010766Stop having the willpower of a nigger.
>>77010766Ethanol is toxic in any amount. If you can take it or leave it, it's not a problem. If you have to think about it, it's a problem and you should stop completely and keep trying. If you fail 99 times then restart at 100.
Too late, you are addicted for life and one single event can make you relapse
>>77010766Work part-time at a liquor store and you'll see multiple reasons to drink moderately every time
Three years sober here. It was the best decision of my life. Alcohol is fun, but it cost me too much. Too many bad decisions, too many relationships ruined, too much escapism. I don't miss it one bit.
>>77010771>>77012538what do you do with all your free time?
>>77010766It's holding you back, killing your gains, and keeping you fat.T. quit alkie a month ago and finally under 16% bodyfat despite en pointe diet, sleep, and cardio.
>>77010766what do you even mean, "redpill you" on it? there's 0 downsides to quitting drinking and tons of health benefits.
>>77012641>yeah I never wipe, how could you tell?
>>77010766Why are there so many alcoholics and potheads on this supposed fitness board? Either improve or don't, you know what you have to do: STOP. Stop attention posting like a fucking bitch
>>77013185This board has the biggest concentration of blue collars and military zogbots on 4chan, just check the work threads.Blue collar retards like smoking and alcohol
>>77010766Makes you a fat retarded slob, plain and simple. Gives you cancer too. If you’re here I assume you train and care about your health somewhat, so not putting that shit in your body is a positive in itself.
>>77011149if it doenst give you what you need, why bother
