  I just lost my job and been sober for almost six months. This speaks to me

    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.

      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.

    As someone with years of sobriety now, here’s some truth: There’s a lag in results to your efforts in this world. The 6 months before and you getting sober are you at your worst by their very nature and that’s what your employer lived with. The 6 months navigating new sobriety are very difficult and you change A LOT without realizing it. Oftentimes this changes relationships resulting in them ending.

    You sound like you’re well aware that if you pick up that bottle you may not get the chance to put it down again so I’ll leave that alone. There is not a single thing alcohol cannot make worse with time. Even the relief you get from taking it is temporary being replaced with a longing and existential dread while you wait for the next opportunity.

  Get on my level. Or don’t, I was trying to kill myself. Lol

    Oh no I am so sorry.

      Oh please, don’t be. Not your fault. I’m just going through a bit of a thing I guess, I thought it’d be funny to make light of it for others’ enjoyment.

      So yeah please don’t feel bad lol, though I appreciate the sentiment
