a few pints of Carlsberg. thats it. No more wine, Yagermeister, warm Dutch Gold, Whiskey, Captain Morgans....Noththing off the top shelf anymore. Only a bit of rubbing potín for the arthritis.
Gave up booze all together for about a year. Was the best thing and the worst thing I've ever done in my life. Was great because my body needed a break. Was terrible, at the time, because it forced me to face my demons. Have been seeing an addiction counselor weekly for the last year which has been amazing. Harm reduction rather than abstinence is the path I've chosen. I used to drink because I had unresolved issues that were the cause of anxiety, so I self medicated. Now, it's nice to meet my friends for a couple then head home without being drunk, without waking with a hangover and not suffering from gout.
Haven't touched marihuana in over a year, buh. As much as I agree with legalisation et al, the weed here is shit, too strong, too much TCH, not enough CBD's. Giving it up has done more for mah state of mind than anything else.
