Yours was the one I saw. Not seeking out every irrelevant a-hole and responding to them all individually.

The biggest thing that helps me is going to a weekly meeting. It's not a true AA but a recovery group within my church for people dealing with all types of addictions. There is so much power in just talking about whatever it is that you're going through so that it doesn't have hold on you anymore. Always remember that there is not substitute for the continuation of time in your sobriety. Just make it to that next minute, hour, or day sober and keep stacking days. Triggers will always be there but the thought cravings will subside with time.

This has to be harder than quitting alcohol, right?


Quitting sugar is no joke. It has all the same symptoms as drug withdrawals.

idk if this will work for someone who is chemically dependent


No. Someone who is chemically dependent on alcohol should never quit turkey, unless they want to die. That said, NA beer still has around .5 percent alcohol, so it’s like a little microdose.

Didn’t want to fricked up and not be able to take my baby girl to ER at 2am.
