Absolutely brutal

I started heavy drinking in 2010 to cope with my oneitis rejecting me for Chad and became addicted. But I managed to stop around 2 years ago.

IDK about getting back "emotions" but I really needed to quit alcohol as it was ruining other aspects of my life.

Kicking the alcohol addiction is one of the few things I'm proud of in my life.

Proud of you bro I didn't even used to like it and I thought drugs were for degenerate retards

Yeah but it might take like a year. Same with any kind of drug addiction, it burns out your serotonin receptors or whatever, and destroys your ability to enjoy anything. It takes a long time for that to go away.

Fucking bruuuuutal holy shit

I'm an 'emotional' person myself. If anything, I think quitting alcohol would actually make you LESS emotional (though I'm NOT encouraging you too drink, brocel).

Very nice, I'm happy for you brocel.

Thanks!

To be honest, I was a degenerate retard during my drinking years. But I'd be a liar if I said it didn't help me cope with the heartbreak and rejection. The big mistake I made was that I tried to solve a problem with an even worse problem.

Yeah I might have to quit full stop me being a "casual drinker" is just not realistic

One or two months. When you stay totally abstinent. I was sober for 5 months once and over a year once. But life without alcohol just pissed me off. It was nice for a while, especially to be physically more productive again. But I missed the occasional rush and switching off from this shitty reality, and my social anxiety was getting stronger again.

Check out the channel called "Stop Drinking Expert".

I no longer watch it, but back when I was trying to quit, I used to watch it regularly.

The dude running the channel has a nice and straightforward laymans way of explaining how alcohol addiction works, which helped me understand my problem and develop the mindset I needed to quit.

I recommend you sort his videos by "popular".

I miss alcohol too but I got to a point where alcohol no longer provided any sort of rush or buzz or relief of any kind. Basically wouldn't get drunk, I would just get sick like a hangover with no benefit at all. So it become totally pointless to buy alcohol cause it's just an expensive hangover.

But without the substance there are "nice" withdrawal symptoms.
If you really drank to that level, you're guaranteed to have had severe withdrawal symptoms if you just quit.
