I'm thinking of starting up again, unless the world somehow becomes magically unfucked!

It won't make the world any better, let alone your personal situation. Sobriety will always win over drunkenness, unless you are trying to have sex with @TheGook 's mother

I started drinking and then though Joe Biden made a lot of sense and won me over with his platform of orange man bad, and nearly sealed the deal when he played 'Despacito' on his cell phone, really showed he connected with the Hispanic vote. I promptly vowed to never drink again.

Woo-hoo! Good work.
I quit drinking after, well.... too many years of boozing. I never let it get that out of hand, therefore I was always able to rationalize it. But no more.
Its been about a year now and I am so happy I did it. I did go cold turkey. I did not have serious withdrawal, but I did learn that what I thought was my “emotional dependence”, was in fact a physical one. After about six or eight weeks I just stopped missing it. I dont mean I never miss it. But its pretty minimal.
I am surprised at how easy it was. I should have done it 20 years ago but I didn’t have the proper attitude towards it: that it just robs joy from your sober life to give you that high.
Drinking is such a scam. I was tired of giving my money to some corporation for the privilege of fucking my life up. Plus Im an ass when I drink. I mean worse than my usual, which, those of you who know me....
Well anyway. Keep it up and congratulations.

Every time I drink now I just get annoying and angry about all the things wrong in my life. I almost never get that good buzz feeling anymore. Now I only drink for the flavor.
The last few years I felt like I couldn’t even get drunk anymore. I mean I could get technically drunk. But I wasn’t able to really feel the pleasure of it. It was like I was out of joy. I was just doing it for that stress relief I got downing that first beer.
Thing is, the stress went away when I stopped drinking.
Ask yourself if that flavor isn’t the dopamine hit your brain gives you when you give it what it wants. I had a similar experience with quitting cigarettes. The shit doesn’t taste good unless you have an addiction to it.

Thankyou for your post. I was never a really heavy drinker but I was always a regular drinker. I work from home and would have a couple beers with lunch every day It turned into like 6 and I realized one day that I could slam 6 beers in an hour and not get drunk. Hell, I couldnt even feel it. Not good. So I
