oh, yeah, sober still! I know it would be terrible to give in now, given my tendency to fall down the alcohol hole again. For the moment it’s not hard at all, actually, but I often reflect on how badly I would handle the situation if I hadn’t quit drinking.
being Belgian, I have to pass on a lot of good beers, tho, but I need to be able to control myself first before even thinking about an occasional drink.
That’s the spirit. Some people can never touch booze again, and it’s good for them to know that. Others are able to learn a newer and healthier relationship with it. And an important part of a healthier relationship with it is knowing when it’s better to stay sober. I know for me it was important to learn that “I need a drink” means I actually need to stay sober until I don’t.
Memes and jokes are fun and games but keep your head up homie.
I’m happy you’re being sober for yourself and those around you.
