This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I've been tracking my drinks for 2 years, first time I reach such a sober streak - and I feel really better!

Congrats! I stopped drinking two years ago, and I don't miss it at all. IWNDWYT 😊

What replaced the addiction? I'm struggling with something else and have come to understand the addiction usually fills a gap I think

I guess maybe weed? I was smoking joints pretty heavily alongside drinking. Eventually I stopped smoking weed not long after I stopped drinking, because it started giving me really bad anxiety. Nowadays both things have been replaced with hobbies (art, fursuit making) and exercise (walks and biking).
