Stollen!

Anon is finally committed, as an act of obedience to his Creator, to embracing the suck of quitting a decades-long booze dependency.

Dopamine is at deep subterranean levels. Can't seem to find interest in or enthusiasm for anything. Can't think. Worst brain fog ever. It's like consciously sleepwalking through the days.

Any other anons here who successfully ditched booze (in this case with no support group, AA or otherwise), would appreciate your advice.

>I gave up the booze years ago.

How long was it until you felt "normal" again?

>Everything in moderation.

>no good if you have no self control.

Some peeps have it in their genes that once booze enters the brain, self-control departs it. Anon has learned the hard way that for anon booze is a vampire, and anon cannot crack the door to it even one 12-oz inch.

Thanks, fren, but part of anon's commitment is to see this change through without assistance from Big Pharma or any other sort of drugs.

Thanks, anon.

AA is not an option here, nor would I seek it out if it was. Had horrible experiences as a teenager with AA brainwashing alcoholic parents. Saw it as a cult and cannot see it as otherwise. Plus there are tons of studies showing that its success rate is pretty low.

Sugar is just a cheap, limited, and unhealthy dopamine spike. Trying to avoid.

>Seeing sunrise and sunset always good for the mind.

I've actually changed my sleep schedule, to bed by 10 p.m. and sleep as much as I can (used booze to treat insomnia) until getting up just before sunrise so I can catch the first sun.

Thanks for the link, will check it out.

God bless you and o7.
