Alcohol has epigenetic effects actually, especially as a man, so if you plan on having kids someday and you're struggling to keep it together, think about doing it for them if that helps

Look into Baclofen, it wipes out a lot of the issues/side effects that come with weaning off an addiction to alcohol:

Conclusion: Baclofen produces an effortless decrease or suppression of alcohol craving when it is prescribed with no superior limit of dose. Potential limitations in the effectiveness of baclofen include the coexistence of a mental disorder, the concomitant use of other psychotropic drugs, a lack of real motivation in patients to stop drinking, and the impossibility to reach the optimal dose of baclofen because of unbearable side-effects (sometimes possibly related to too sharp a protocol of dose escalation).

I been off alcohol for about 3 months now. Major life progress being made.
Alcoholism is a horrendous humbling experience.

THE TRICK TO IT, IS THAT YOU CAN'T TAKE A SIP NO MATTER WHAT. EVEN IF YOU GO 10 YEARS W/O, YOU STILL CAN'T TAKE A SIP.
DO NOT LISTEN TO THE PPL TELLING YOU TO DRINK IN MODERATION. THEY AREN'T TRUE ALCHOLICS.

Blacks a whole other subject tho.
@Ciggavelli how you put dem smokes down, breh?

Salute. I completely stopped drinking in like 2012. I was always a social drinker more than a real "drinker". Always thought liquor was gross

Ehhhh....I'm back to smoking, unfortunately. That's a hard addiction to break :mjcry:

I'll be 5 months sober tomorrow though :blessed:

I bought myself some nicorete (sp?) lozenges though that I'm going to try next week at work. I only smoke at work. I like taking a 5 minute break every hour to smoke a cig. It breaks the day up. I gotta find some other alternative though. What that will be, I'm not sure :jbhmm:


You are completely right about the fact that you can't even take a sip of alcohol ever. We alcoholics can't handle even a sip, as a sip will lead to full blown addiction. One sip can ruin your life. We gotta take sobriety very, very seriously.
