Saying goodbye to alcohol for good

Hangovers getting worse as I get older

Spending too much $ on it

Slowing down productivity

Ruining health

No Alcohol is the way to go

If you can control it then absolutely, don’t drink. Good luck man.

There are steps between "spending too much on it" and "no alcohol."

usually alcoholism is attributed to an underlying cause beyond just become a habit i been there srs

once you nail the root cause you'll level up bigly OP

i might have a drink or two every few months but i recognize its poisonous qualities

You must drink like a sailor. I'm in my 30s and can drink right after the gym with zero hang overs. I only drink vodka though. Nothing else.

I have been spending around $600 a month drinking and alot more if I go to the bar which I used to do alot.

Starting seeing my face bloat and get red lately. It was causing crazy anxiety.

I'm going on day 3 and I'm starting to feel better. All of my friends quit drinking and I moved out of the college town I was living in to a small town. I think this will be a huge for cravings.

When you go without alcohol for months then you get drunk again you realise how toxic it truly is to your body

Brb massive headache
Brb sloppy dumps
Brb red/puffy face
Brb can't even think straight
Brb stomach all jacked up
Brb sleep quality is dire, wake up feeling like you didn't even get any
Brb bad throat

Yet some miscers down this poison every night. Jfl

Honestly it's one of the best gifts you can give yourself. I look at it like a Christmas present to myself.

-Messes up ur mood
-Drains ur bank account
-Causes fights with ur friends/family
-Had body pains in my side at times
-Drank to get over the anxiety from being hungover
-Chitty workouts

I've been drinking pretty heavy off and on since like 2010 but I'm finally ready to make a huge change and stay off it for good

Good for you, if you can't moderate it it's probably best not to have it at all. I've seen it destroy two lives, it was sad because these guys didn't except it was a problem until it was too late!
