What do sober people do?

What do sober people do?
I'm drinking the last of my alcohol in my fridge tonight and told myself I will live clean for 6 months. I just want to prove it to myself but then I got thinking. Wtf do sober people do with their time?

exercise, but i do both.
sell weed all day, hit gym hard 6 days a week, get drunk at night. not a bad life

boring people are bored. Find something to do.

Grown up stuff.

And alcohol normally solves the boredom. I don't have a problem going out and not drinking. The issue is just sitting there watching tv or being bored as fuck on a weekday.

Read, learn to play an instrument, exercise. Just try being productive.

This thread reminds of a Sinatra quote:

I feel sorry for people who don't drink. Cause when they wake up that's as good as they'll feel all day.

I have been sober for ten months now.

I have severe suicidal thoughts that I didn't have to deal with when I used to drink and smoke pot.

I don't have any friends except for my mother and step father.

I consider suicide every day.

try mdma

Exercise and learn to meditate. These feelings are just withdrawal symptoms. They will pass over time with some work. It's literally your brain rewiring itself to live without alcohol.

Fucking love this.

So sounds like you aren't happier sober. Why do you continue to do it?

That's a nice way to rationalize alcohol dependency.

They go to meetings.

Soberfag for two years here. Yeah you'll drive yourself insane if you just worry about it. I actually started making it a point to start going out and be social after I stopped drinking and meeting friends and people that way has been crazy influential. Not even in the AA circle but if that's what you need no judgement. Part of my thing when I did get fucked up all the time was I felt I needed to to be fun and talk to people but just nutting up and doing it sober and realizing even if you do fuck up it's totes chill has made all the difference. Also yeah I know it's weird but exercise and working out is a stereotype for newly sober people but it helps immensely. Confidence and endorphins and all that. And if it helps I was just fucking fatties and fucked up ladies when I was getting fucked up but now I'm hitting dimes and actually know what the fuck I'm doing. In my exeperience the benefits have outweighed the fear of boredom. Do something new everyday brah, hit on a new chick everyday until you find the way that works, eat the ass different every time until she moans, etc.

But if you find something that makes you happier, why not continue to do that?

You went from drinking finely crafted beverages to stuffing your tongue down shit canals. Way to advance in life with sobriety.

Cause physical dependence on booze is a bad thing. I like beer but I do not like getting drunk.

Because you're not happy, you're just drunk.

Well, when I stopped drinking the beginning was pretty hard, cause you know, your brain is literally used living with it in your system.

Initial things to cope with it was to fix small things in the house, take walks and hit gym - and reminding me why I was doing it.

After I saved enought money from beer I bought a PS4 for gaming, which helped a bit as well.

Bra. If you saw these shit canals you would to.

Video games.

Get a job fag...he says hypocritically

You have to find things to do. That's the point. Alcohol is easymode for having fun. Being sober and actually having to create meaning for your life is harder.

85% of those are more fun when drunk/high.

100% of those things are more fun when drunk/high.

I have no idea. I think they watch reality tv, dance competitions and singing shows.

I'm doing much the same, but I haven't seen more than a week sober in nearly 20 years. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with my time. Collecting stamps? Is that still a thing?

It's going to be a long six months.Sex is going to take a nosedive. I don't have the looks to pick up attractive women, and I can only convince myself someone fat or ugly is pretty with enough booze. It'll take me a while getting used to waking up rather than coming to.

Drive, fuck,use power tools and be pregnant

I could see some issues trying to rock climb or do parkour while intoxicated. This is the only reason why I estimated it down to 85%. Though, I guess if injury doesn't impact your ability to enjoy an activity, go for it!

What the fuck do you do when you already do all that and have money left over?

I'm sober and I still go to bars and clubs with friends who drink.

I race, street or track.
I ride my bike.
I hike.
I do photography.
I write.
I play video games.
I look up porn... Far too much, I'm sure.
I am currently learning a second language and learning how to program websites.
