Today marks exactly six years when I put an end to my vice of alcohol. I'm going to reiterate something I've offered many times to folks here and elsewhere. If you're struggling with quitting your addiction, and need someone to vent/cry/yell at, my DCs are always open.

what is something that you consider has helped you remarkably on these 6 years? and also curious: why do you call it a vice? how would you describe your relationship to it in a gruk (?) story?

My spouse played a big role in supporting my recovery, I was definitely not easy to be around, especially when experiencing DTs (in retrospect going straight cold turkey was very dumb!), but the thing that has made it simpler was doing enough soul searching to figure out why I was seeking escapism at all.

Solace from a lifetime of repression. There was no solace to be found, it just was a part of me I needed to accept. 🙂

what helped you on accepting that part of you? for me it expresses in the relationship with my father mostly. i cant accept him, and everything that comes from me in relationship to him is dense and that means there is a part of me - that is mirrored by him - that i don’t accept and i wonder how to do it

finding that there were people like me, that there was a path forward in that life, and that it was possible to thrive. and while a very different circumstance, the biggest first move is forgiveness (whether to self, others, or both), and (if need be) letting go
