It's not for me, I'm German & love my beers but I keep it under control. If others want or need to be sober then kudos to them!

Just a friendly reminder to all keep the pictures within the forum rules... I have deleted a picture that was against the forum rules at this time. Pictures of people doing drugs are against the site rules.....

I do not like drunkeness. Most people that drink, get drunk at some point in their life at least once and many get drunk often. Alcohol can be a bad addiction, it is best to stay clear of all, especially those who really have little or no control.

Back when I was a teen, my parents allowed me to drink, if I wanted to. Just as long as I didn't drive drunk. They'd rather have me home, drinking. As it turned out, I wasn't so impressed with it. I wasn't getting away with anything, why bother? Then feeling lousy the following day wasn't my thing.

Drinking, I can take or leave.

I must stay sober. Most difficult thing about being sober? Learning how to express myself sober!

It does get easier for me though. I just write and write and write....

Yes journaling very healthy for your sobriety its very highly recommended, also to go out of your
confort zone.
People often feel awkward at first in a lot of areas in their life, its thought of by many, to be a lot of hard
work but eventually its not forced anymore, it just becomes a lifestyle.
Its just life and life is what happens when your busy making plans.
As they say in AA fake it til ya make it.flowerforyou

Moreover is thread will be a lot more to recovering alcoholics/addicts than a place to drop a simple 2cents
Its on going treatment and therefore should be treated in the highest regards including common rules
that hold merrit in any addlction treatment facility or organized commonity meatings.

1) (((no war stories))) ..been graphic about the times you used

2)(((no glorifying)))....how good it was...the good times

3)(((no judging)))....

4)(((uses of I word))) I, instead of "you should"..I sometimes do it this way.

I take my sobriety realy serious as do others.

People drink because they are afraid to face life sober, afraid to care what others think, afraid to be themselves, afraid of the truth. Sobriety is important to me because truth is important and freedom is paramount.

Not to mention I like being conscious.

Sometimes when I tell someone i'm an alcoholic, the response is similar to admitting I have something like an S.T.D. Other people are cool. Admitting it does weed out the jackasses;-)
