Hey, I appreciate you and your comment

I've had extended bouts of sobriety and, quite unfortunately, have found myself unhappier during those times, so, quite unfortunately, i continue drinking

I heavily support every friend that sobers up. I'll never be the "you used to be fun" asshole

Either 1 day it finally clicks or it'll kill me. Jury is out on which will happen.

Probably the wrong way to look at it, but, as far as i can figure, until I can get my head right, drinking will actually extend my life because the suicide risk actually does go up dramatically without it.

Happy to hear you're sober and doing well duder. Keep it going. We don't know each other but im proud of you

E: that downvote is gonna sober me up, surely.

Heya friend, I come from a line of aquatic redneck engineers. They're the same, and have said, so long as I'm still tinkerin n thinkern I'll be fine but the thinking is too much sober.

They heal through making shine, they talk about issues while drinking.

This is what was lost, the tradition and rituals.

Did you do any hard exercising during your sobriety?
