me neither (ok, I'm loying)... but well done fella! Drink is a rough one! You'd literally have a better survival rate if you smoked heroin all ur life (not medical advice).

I literally ended-up in hospital with AFIB & some other serious issues... I tell you something though, 'spiritual religious' Boq is a fucking meanie - I'll forgive him, but when I was out of hospital for one day (& doing a stream for him as a favour) he mocked me for saying 'ahhh, I've got chest pains, dude' - what a bastard, LOL.

Luckily I corrected things before the point of no-return, but alcohol is a bad one, so you're doing well to stop... you can be fine for years, but then things will deteriorate real fast & beyond control.

Glad I stopped (despite the occasional cheeky glass of wine)

I'm healing/regenerating my liver until Halloween as well. Started end of July other than had plenty in Mexico in early Aug. Thought it would have been tougher to not have any but it's been no big deal. I definitely have empathy for those that can't stop...it's one of the only organs that can heal itself and it still takes people down.

you're doing well, stick at it!

& don't think that you must drink again, I kinda decided to leave it for 6months, but I always thought I'd definitely drink again... but maybe there's no need... obviously do whatever suits you tho'.

I'm not white knuckling it or anything and I don't usually drink every day, but a couple times a week with the occasional bender. I just figured I'd go to do some work on my car or something and just be like "okay, fuck it I need a beer". Have done plenty of things where'd I'd normally be drinking too: road trip to Reno where I stayed at a casino, party at friends house, neighbor offering me beer chatting at night, buddy in town that I went to a show/food at a bar(one of the best bars), annoying chores, casino pool, dealing with dad/sister being in town, building shelves/painting recording studio, etc. Beer fridge hasn't been breached. Wifes trying to get me to eat MDMA and I'm resisting doing that without booze lol

Any tips?

I live in arsefuck so the boredom is the biggest issue.

use honey instead of simple syrup when making old fashioneds, it will save some of the hangover.
extra pro tip: use local honey and that builds up a natural defense against allergens in your city

....
but seriously, an actual tip, drink until the wheels fall off, then make posts teasing your death on a defunct radio show forum for months so you can get those sweet sweet sympathy ribs.
Pros: more forum clout
cons: death.
...it's a tough one man

@jerkstorej I'd tell you to kill yourself, but it seems like you already did a fine job

Magnesium tablets, sparkling water + lemon, and 4x games( the games that are about managing resources and staring at a map slowly change it's shape) helped me not think about it, now I just think about Halloween and holidays coming up. I still crave the drink, we'll see if I don't just bender out like everyone else is saying. There are a lot of free MMOs if you want a good way to distract yourself.

the cancer threads spooked me pretty good, too. I do only ever drink when I go out, cos drinking by myself feels both boring and depressing. my problem is that people are always inviting me out to partake in some fawkin road sodas, and I'm keen on a good time, but I'm worried it's going to catch up with me later; I'm at least not addicted to the shit, thank christ. I'm thinking of taking a full year off from drinking after the holidays, which wouldn't be the first time I've done so
