What's it worth being sober? Why do people congratulate you for being sober and look down on you when you aren't?
What's it worth being sober? Why do people congratulate you for being sober and look down on you when you aren't?
Because it's difficult.
People don't congratulate you for jerking off.
Most people who get congratulated for being sober have likely struggled with addiction in the past. They get congratulated because being sober is healthier than being addicted to a drug...
because not being dependent on something is impressive. it doesn't matter what it is, self control and discipline are impressive. also people who aren't sober can be a liability and overall inconvenient.
coming from somebody who isn't sober.
Its not worth it. Just do shit in moderation.
My cousin did when I was 10
Because nobody wants to live or deal with a druggie or alcoholic

Because most people who go sober had a drug problem in the past that made their life worse, and the road to getting sober and improving themselves was difficult. Some people can be a “functioning addict” and functioning normally while using a lot of drugs, which imo is fine, but for the vast majority who can’t and get hooked, sobriety usually improves their lives
i decided to give up drinking this year. went from at least a six pack of beer every night to 0. i've drank a few times this year. benefits:
> you'll lose weight and that'll make you look better and feel better
> sleep better, i used to get cotton mouth, acid reflux, constantly wake up to get water, or tums, or pepto. now i sleep much better
> spending less on alcohol
> i don't eat crazy shit late at night because i get the munchies. one time i was drunk late at night, decided to eat a giant bag of potato chips, ripped the bag open they all spilled on my dirty carpet. i got down on the floor and ate the whole bag even with little hairs and shit stuck in the chips.
> less eating out for me. quite often i would go eat at a restaurant just to have beer with my meal and that is expensive if you do it a few times a week like i did
i generally a lot better all day long now. i don't intend to be a teetotaler but drinking will be a rare thing for me now.
It's true, i get way more productive when I'm sober but how to i get rid of all the thoughts that torment me when I'm thinking clearly? Can i seperate productive time and high time?
