Quitting Alcohol

[DroptineDC18]

Bringing this one back up top for those getting started or thinking about quitting. 2.5 years no alcohol. Life’s great!

I’m 32 and quit 3 years ago. Best decision I’ve ever made. Once you hit a certain point you realize what you’re gaining rather than missing out on. If I’m at a wedding or special event I’ll have an NA. I look at my buddies that continue to drink more and more and feel bad. Glad I got out before it was a real problem!

I quit entirely a year ago. I feel much better and am happier with myself , but perhaps the biggest difference is how well I get along with my wife. I just decided the negative side was outweighing the positive and stopped ,cold turkey. It was a good decision. I just retired , and want to enjoy ,with my wife, the fruits of our labors, for as long as possible. Alcohol simply doesn’t fit the plan.

Good job! Coming up on two years in July. Just turned 40 last week. Still catch shit from friends and coworkers but doesn't bother me.
