How many of us are completely sober?

[TimeToBiteTheDust]

I've been sober more than a month. I am not an alcoholic though.

Not me.... I like to smoke bud to get me through the day to day grind. Really helps me with my public anxiety / depression. Other than that... I use alcohol, nicotine, Xanax, X, mushrooms, Cid and nitrous. Not good at all I understand, I've got a problem. Maybe I'll wise up one day and drop that toxic shit, if I don't kill myself first.

I used to drink almost everyday but I don't know why I'm not finding pleasure in drinking anymore since a week ago. Actually I can't find pleasure in anything anymore, it's like I'm already dead.

 

[Huntfish34]

Same here, like I'm dead already also. I get it.

I know that substance abuse often comes from a desire to ameliorate the feeling of a harsh existence. I also know that when I resort to chemical substances I usually feel worse than I did before.

I am just wondering: Is there anyone here who abstains from all forms of chemical inebriation, including caffeine? (This is the one that has me in its clutches)

I was just wondering how many of us still want to suicide while completely free of the influence of any chemicals. Thanks for all the replies.

Alcohol makes it worse, but pot makes it a bit better. I'm 6 montgs sober. 6 months ago I failed a few too many times. Now I'm back. Caffine only affects you negitively if you're bipolar

Antidepressants i feel immediately a lot worse when i forget to take it some day...and yes caffiene and Tobacco...other than that i am sober... i tried Marijuana it shoots my anxiety up somehow.. Xanax don't make me relaxed either...i never tried other drugs

Don't drink, don't smoke anything, I used to but have been sober for probably 10 years. My vice comes in the form of cake and chocolate. I do consume caffeine though.

I just had a bar of Diary Milk. I told myself I wouldn't then did it anyway. Bad potato.

I don't drink or take drugs. I eat well and exercise every day. I'm in the best shape of my life and I've still had enough of this pointless existence. My life is devoid of love or purpose.

 

[madbananas]

Not me. Been royally effed by so called love ones who control my future. Been drinking, taken a benzo. Feel numb but angry in my mind. Physically I'm calm but my mind is racing and neither alcohol nor the benzo has helped with that.

 

[Élégie]

I'm completely sober. I don't use recreational or prescription drugs, I don't drink, I don't smoke... I hate the effects of caffeine, so I only drink herbal teas and decaf coffee. I also try to stick to a whole food diet. I lead a pretty ascetic life.

 

[Saed]

Nah. Am on the Russian Standard. Have been all day tbh. May as well. I'll be dead soon.

 

[esoragoto]

During my absolute wildest years in college I could still count the number of days I drank alcohol in a given year on both hands. Never tried any other substances besides alcohol and never intend to.

 

[Dead beat dad]

I love drinking, I love smoking, I love drugs, I love candy, I love caffeine...
And it is for that reason I don't do them.
For me one is too many and twenty is not enough, so I try to abstain.
Lockdown has messed with that a bit and I've slunk back to alcohol like a graffiti spraying vandal to the the scene of the crime.

I drink very heavily, but that is going to change (at least temporarily). My psychiatrist has devised a plan to reduce my drinking while guaranteeing my mental health. God knows whether it will work.
