The Non Drug/Alcohol Abuse Calendar

[JunkBondTrader]

So, in the spirit of VT, I hereby create the non drug abuse calendar.

First day without a drop of booze in two years! :D

Awesome man, it has been one week for me

Congrats! Keep at it, man.

I'm getting by on massive amounts of water. As long as I'm drinking something, things feel a lot better.

I don't have anything of relevance to the thread, but I really like this idea and I'm gonna run stickying this by seniors.

Congratulations on letting go of alcohol guys. That truly is impressive; it's an addiction that I can only imagine the difficulty overcoming. I have an uncle who's been sober for 10 years, and it definitely changed his life for the better. Good luck.

Well Done Felix!

I haven't had a cigarette in.. 3 months now? I've not had weed in a long time, nearly a year and a half. Alcohol.. eh Friday.

I haven't used for a day now, but it feels like a fucking week.

[JunkBondTrader]

Thanks, you guys. Day two now over. Not pleasant but bearable at least.

Congrats on kicking the smokes, Aaron. That's one thing I can't say I've done, probably smoked enough in the last couple of days to last me an entire year.

Stick at it, Tim. It's tough now, but it will pass.

No alcohol or marijuana in about three weeks. I had a few stoges on Saturday, though. I need to get rid of those.

[Syvelocin]

For the starting of this thread, I'm just going to throw in here, three years and seven months strong. :P

*looks at Aaron's post*

Oh, do cigarettes count? Damn it...

[JunkBondTrader]

Okay, so I screwed up last night and ended up having a few drinks, but nothing major. I was able to keep it curbed.

Here we go again.

11 days now I think. One day at a time.

It's probably a good thing that you know you screwed up, yeah? But what you're saying sounds so much like a drug addict thinking they're the one in control... I'm rooting for you, though.

Thanks, man. Yeah, I screwed up pretty royal. Total abstinance isn't working out too well for me. I've been drinking for the last few days, but at least I haven't been getting shitfaced like I've been doing in the past. I've managed to cut down from 6-8 cans of strong lager a night to 2 or 3 which is an accomplishment as far as I'm concerned.

I plan to reattempt total abstinance beginning Monday. I'm gradually cutting down and succeeding, so I'm happy about that, at least.

And Tim, congrats man! Keep at it!

[ShatteredWings]

Felix, are you a person who CAN keep it to '1 or 2'?

[Rubber]

this friday, it will be 10 weeks of no smoking pot
this saturday, it will be 8 weeks of not drinking. Sadly i might break my drinking cycle soon i think. i hav a sweet sixteen i have to go to soon, and im not reli friends with her friends, and im bad in social situations. Errr what to do?? should i just leave before the party starts and just stay for the quick speeches and stuff?!?

[deadpie]

I think I made like 28 or 29 days, but shit is going to go so fucking down hill now or for a while. After this shit though, like this heavy week of shit I'm going to be done for good, so yeah.

keep it going Tim. Once you say you're going to stop, you need to stop.

Been off regular baccy for months now :)

I was off cigarettes for a week, but ended up caving. Had a bad run-in with a patient in work, and just pushed me over the edge.

[Rubber]
