I see some loser lib already downvoted this 😂
Proud of u 
Sobriety is difficult, and to stay sober for 4 years is a great accomplishment 🙂
Congrats, comrade. I've been sober since July 4th of this year.
That's a big win and a great success, my best congratulations 👏🏻 I am now 3,5 month alco free (started 1 of May), and continue it to the end of life 🙂
Good for you. How do you feel after all those years?
I had a period of 8 months sober some years ago. I can handle my alcohol now, though I am slowly starting to drink less and less. It's been three weeks since my last drink, actually. Sometimes I want to fully quit as well, but since I don't have a problem and I like to drink a beer every once in a while, I keep wondering if I should.
Big difference between substance misuse and substance use comrade, if you have a healthy relationship with it now thats great and likely doesnt need changing; for some people a clean break is the only way however.
Its all about the relationship you have with it and where it lands on your life priority list; when substances start becoming more important priorities than real life shit is when they tend to become issues.
Congrats, what were your biggest challenges? What and when did you realize it was worth it?
I don't want to get into specifics, but I just couldn't live like that any longer. After about a year of sobriety I realized that I didn't have many positive memories associated with alcohol.
Being sober actually allowed me to start reflecting on my life and lead me to start thinking about things. Ironically, it was also a catalyst into me learning about Marxism as well.
Dude. Sobriety was so important in my radicalization and moving from disaffected and alienated to educated and principled. I didn’t realize how badly alcohol had lead me astray until things got out of hand, and now I too am multiple years sober. Keep it up!
Thats awesome to hear, i myself am on my journey to being alcohol free. Life is much better without drinking.
Almost at 3 years myself comrade. Congratulations
Same here. I do use THC and shrooms sometimes, but those don't have the negative effects alcohol had on my life. Honestly THC can be a good harm reduction tool.
THC is often described as an 'exit drug' for people who need a replacement drug for there addictions that is non-harmfull.
I hope you have gained the balance in your life or whatever it might be you were looking for by staying alcohol free. Congrats 
Congratulations 👏🎉
And here is me who has never touched alcohol ever in life
If you haven't, don't start.
I haven't either, but that's bc I'm a minor
As a functional alcoholic who wants to quit (I've done it twice, but gave in to temptation), I salute you. The first five or so days are the hardest. Then, it's like, why would I want that?
