    Oldies always have been and always will be my favorite type of music... But sometimes, they just make me too sad to listen to.

    IC that I was given the "give up drinking" ultimatum... only 8 days in and I have the twitches, shakes and nervous ticks of a *kitten* heroin addict.

    Depending upon how much you were drinking, it's deadly dangerous to quit entirely at once unlike with smoking cigarettes/cigars!

    When I stopped drinking, I would start out stopping because 'others were upset about it' 'others said I should stop'. That didn't work those first couple times. Talking a long hard look at myself, realizing how little I cared about me was a big motivation for my drinking. How could I care about others, when I did not care about myself?

    Sometimes I still don't care about me and sometimes think I'm the biggest POS that ever lived. Maybe I am those things, maybe I am not. I just know that *I'm* less of a piece of crap because I do not drink anymore. I realize there are two main reasons I make the choice to not drink.
    - I finally reached a point somewhere in my ugly, draining, guilt-ridden drunkenness that I just did not want to drink anymore.
    - Also, I simply cannot drink. 1 will never be 1. It'll be 3 which will be 5, which will be 7, 8, 9, until it's gone and I would typically black out.

    Whatever your reason now to stop drinking, make it about bettering you. Better you means you can be better in other ways of your life, etc.

    It's really hard at first. Mentally and physically. You want to quit, stop, have one more last horrah, but deep down you know it won't be your last.

    I was dealing with weight/body issues before the drinking. Then they all seemed to merge in an ugly way (also coupled with my mental health problems) I still have the MH problems, I still have some of the food problems, but not drinking makes those things easier to deal with, not always, kinda, sorta but it IS easier not being drunk during those issues.

    Sorry so long. Not sure any of this helps, and there's no judgement at all. But I get it. I do.

    Thank you. I appreciate your insight.

    I confess...that I am over people today, and do not want to interact with a single damn person.

    Yay social anxiety!
