      Just eat until you can't anymore.
      Eat shit food. Eating what you want. Eat until you feel sick. Eventually, you will get sleepy. You wont feel like drinking.
      jerk off.
      Cold showers.
      Avoid caffeine.

      Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path. Those who do not recover are people who cannot or will not completely give themselves to this simple program, usually men and women who are constitutionally incapable of being honest with themselves. There are such unfortunates. They are not at fault; they seem to have been born that way. They are naturally incapable of grasping and developing a manner of living which demands rigorous honesty. Their chances are less than average. There are those, too, who suffer from grave emotional and mental disorders, but many of them do recover if they have the capacity to be honest.

      Our stories disclose in a general way what we used to be like, what happened, and what we are like now. If you have decided you want what we have and are willing to go to any length to get it—then you are ready to take certain steps.

      At some of these we balked. We thought we could find an easier, softer way. But we could not. With all the earnestness at our command, we beg of you to be fearless and thorough from the very start. Some of us have tried to hold on to our old ideas and the result was nil until we let go absolutely.

      Remember that we deal with alcohol—cunning, baffling, powerful! Without help it is too much for us. But there is One who has all power—that One is God. May you find Him now!

        Half measures availed us nothing. We stood at the turning point. We asked His protection and care with complete abandon.

        Here are the steps we took, which are suggested as a program of recovery:

        1. We admitted we were powerless over alcohol— that our lives had become unmanageable.
        2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.
        3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.
        4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
        5. Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.
        6. Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character.
        7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings.
        8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all.
        9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others.
        10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.
        11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out.
        12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

          Many of us exclaimed, “What an order! I can’t go through with it.’’ Do not be discouraged. No one among us has been able to maintain anything like perfect adherence to these principles. We are not saints. The point is, that we are willing to grow along spiritual lines. The principles we have set down are guides to progress. We claim spiritual progress rather than spiritual perfection.

          Our description of the alcoholic, the chapter to the agnostic, and our personal adventures before and after make clear three pertinent ideas:

          (a) That we were alcoholic and could not manage our own lives.
          (b) That probably no human power could have relieved our alcoholism.
          (c) That God could and would if He were sought.

              The phrase is referring to the famous American actor John Wayne and his tough, no-nonsense persona on screen.

              In this context, "John Wayne it" means to approach a situation or task with a similarly tough and determined attitude, perhaps without showing any fear or hesitation.

              It just means to be a man and do it.

              "John Wayne it" is a phrase that can have different meanings depending on the context. John Wayne was a major American motion-picture actor who embodied the image of the strong, taciturn cowboy or soldier and who in many ways personified the idealized American values of his era1. In some contexts, "John Wayne it" could mean to handle a situation with toughness and determination, like John Wayne's characters often did. However, there are other interpretations of this phrase as well.

    alcoholic here and been sober for 4 years now. eventually something in your brain will switch on and you will be able to quit as long as you keep trying. the hardest part is to accept that alcohol really isnt something for you. this naked mind is a decent book to help you open your eyes to the bullshit about alcohol that you might believe. can be a bit annoying to read aswell since the author overplays how bad her drinking was.hardly drank more than a bottle of wine here and there while at the same time trying to sound like she was on deaths door for example. but the points about alcohol itself is really good to get in your head.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling. It sounds like you're trying to replace the feeling of being drunk with other activities like running and working out. While exercise can release endorphins and provide a natural high, it's important to also address the underlying reasons for why you started drinking in the first place. Have you considered seeking help from a professional or support group?

    tried psyopping yourself into stopping?

    watch the stop drinking expert on youtube - sort by most popular videos as he has way too many filler vids

    alcohol is pretty much in the same category as petrol, tarps, white spirits, paint thinner, paint etc. You wouldnt drink those things even if they gave you the same drunk sensation would you?
    alcohol is so disgusting and poisonons that most drinks are 4-14% (beer, wine) and spirits are 30% but you normally mix them with mixer anyway.
    its advertised to you like how sweets are advertised to kids, bright packagings, cool colours, nice logos, but really whats inside is dogshit.
    Alcohol is like you going to a garden shed and taking some paint thinner or paint stripper or methylated spirits and mixing it with coca cola and drinking it, pure moronic idea? so why do you do it with alcohol
    imagine alcohol wasnt in the fancy packaging or stylish adverts

    i dont drink anymore but I never had a problem anyway so giving up was easy for me. I still have a bottle of my favourite drink that I'm saving for a good day.
    My next planned drink is a summer holiday this year + other things like weddings, then christmas 2023 then summer 2024.

    OP, I wish I could tell you I have a foolproof way of stopping that anyone can apply and just stop. But I don't. I am a recovering alcoholic, and my road to finally quitting and staying quit was long and winding. I relapsed a dozen times over the years. Hell, this isn't even my longest period of sobriety, once I was clean for 5 years, and still relapsed during rona.

    Currently I'm on Antabuse and in therapy. It's been almost a year, and I never intend to drink again. But, yeah. I once was 5 years sober, and all it took was one bad decision. So idk, one day at a time I guess.

          Both of these ring true to me as an alcoholic. I hate being buzzed, its almost like a pre-hangover. but past a certain point of drunk, I get super euphoric, and I just stop caring about all the anxiety inducing BS in my life, and its like a magical release. I always have a low-level anxiety/fear about a bunch of shit in my life, and alcohol lets me 100% let go of it. It's an incredible feeling to finally not care about things, and everything you do is just *fun*. And yes on the drinking autopilot. You just want to keep taking shots to keep up the drunk, but you are clearly auto-pilot just drinking more and more until you pass out essentially.
          Hangovers suck, but you know what cures the blues? Drinking.
          And so you start a slow by shitty cycle of drinking to feel better because your hangover sucks, but then your drinking causes more anhedonia and sadness with the next hangover, and eventually you just keep drinking. At some point the booze stops the euphoria and you drink for no other purpose than to manage and stop The Fear (big F fear, it's the most horrid experience. Imagine a non-stop anxiety attack, just pure sheer terror and sadness for a day straight or more, but with all the other hangover symptoms attached too). That point really, really sucks.
          Yeah its a shit addiction. I've been addicted to opioids in the past and it was a much more pleasant experience than booze, even with the withdrawals.

      It's genetic, unironically. An alcoholic is the sort of drinker who instead of becoming drowsy the more he drinks seemingly becomes more alert, more outgoing, more energetic, all the way until he basically falls over suddenly. I could go for days like that without passing out once, sometimes even without sleeping. It's hard to explain to normal people.

      For me it was realizing that the best way to cure my hangovers was to keep drinking, started out as yknow just a drink or two to make the nausea go away, but then when I drink I tend to keep drinking, and that one or two turns into slowly sipping all day, next thing you know, it's been a week+ of 12 beers a day because I keep putting off the hangover that I will eventually have to deal with. I don't think I'm addicted the way some people are because I quit for a whole month recently fairly easily, but I have realized that the way I drink and the habits I've formed with drinking are unhealthy, and soon I'm going to have to make the decision if it's something I can do responsibly at all. Also side thing is that I have severe anxiety at times and maintaining a solid buzz throughout the day often helps me get things done, so it has turned into this amalgamation of different things that's led to me drinking so much.

    Also alcoholic here. I went from ~500ml daily rum to 2-3 days of drinking a week. Managed to keep the beast at bay most of the time, but Friday nights just send my brain into a frenzy for drinking. Doesn't help that my GF is also in a similar boat; we just live for that Friday night drunk game playing/show watching/booze-fueled fricking, only to wake up Saturday morning and realize I (we've) wasted so much. Then Saturday is shit, and right when I'm feeling normal around 5pm, the booze-demon says "why not drink some more? You feel great right now!" and the ritual starts again. We've realized it and have purposefully and methodically planned things to do outside of booze to hopefully replace it. But I also work alternate weeks a few hundred miles away, and time alone is just the biggest reason to booze up and play games and watch shows and just do nothing.
    I will say you just have to hit it with the willpower hammer. I've been down this road before. You just have to force yourself to replace it will other habits. Remove yourself from your typical boozing location (home I'm guessing). You get better and better at fending it off. The longer you are off of it, the easier it becomes; but yeah its a shithole addiction. You have to just keep hammering the idea that you are NOT buying another bottle. Literally go to a movie at night by yourself instead. Weird and pathetic? Who cares, you aren't drinking.
    When you can get a foothold and at least skip 1-2 days of drinking, it becomes infinitely easier to workout and eat well, and let that carve a niche into your habitual life. I've managed to lose 15 lbs and gain some muscle, even with the drinking; I eat healthy enough, its just the booze crashing everything.
    You can slowly replace it, just keep hammering to yourself that you are stopping, and eventually your brain will relent. But shit sucks man, I'm right there with you.

    Used to drink myself drunk every night. Years like this. Eventually worked in a liquor store, got a sweet discount, continued getting drunk every night.
    Watching people drink themselves to death helped me stop drinking obsessively. I've cried for too many dead alcoholics, including Kirby Morrow, a local actor who did Goku's voice on Dragonball Z. He didn't look like pic related. He was fat and looked bad. He'd come in for tons of vodka, saying it was for a party. Then one day he died. I know a lot of actors and they were all shocked, but I knew it was coming. It was obvious.
    Eventually I got the frick out of there and got a physical job that made it way harder to drink like I wanted to. Now I have a few beers now and then, or hot whisky when I'm sick, but that's it.
    Top tip: get real. Alcohol is killing you. You gotta want to live. I saw a lot of people give up, and it's no fun checking if your friend's breathing when he collapses in front of you out of nowhere, or wondering where so-and-so has been, just to find out they died last week. This shit'll kill ya.
    Bonus tip: Weed is better, if you can't go without some form of intoxicant. Get the booze out of your system for a month and go from there.

    This answer isn't glamorous or a magic bullet that will fix your problems instantly but I think it's the most realistic. Change your habits slowly and in small doses. If you take 7 shots worth of vodka in a drinking sesh start by cutting it down to 6. After a week cut it down to 5. After another week cut it down to 4 and so on. Something to be wary of when drinking is that it will inhibit your judgement but if you recognize this beforehand and remind yourself while you're drunk what your limit is so you can better control it. Finally I would find something constructive to fill the void alcohol is taking up. Is there something you're interested in that you could spend money on that you're currently wasting on liquor? Consider getting in to it so you've got something else to do with your free time besides being idle and drinking by yourself .

    I had 9 drinks last night. When I went to sleep I had the most vivid dream I’ve ever had in my life.

    Met a girl at work before I left for vacation, she was a temporary supervisor for my area, we got along very well. I come back from vacation, she’s not my supervisor but I see her and we chat. She’s super friendly, pretty, nice, and we get along well.

    Talking to friends at work and I decide I’m gonna ask her out. I’m feeling good about it too.

    Wake up, she isn’t real, I have no work friends, and I have no courage. Time to go to my shitty job in the real world.

      weed can absolutelt help curb you off alcohol, and it’s great every now and then, but if you are an alcoholic chances are you are just an addictive person as well.
      t. the anon that mentioned they substituted alcohol for strong edibles near daily earlier in the thread. im taking one right now after a tolerance break. see you on the other side, frickers

      Currently fighting off weed addiction myself. This shit drains my will to do anything. I'm down to .150g of vape per day (+ some cbd)

    The hardest part for me is the fricking insomnia. I got so used to going to sleep drunk that I can't sleep well anymore. It takes me ages to fall asleep and when I always wake up 3 or 4 hours later. Any advice? I don't live in my homecountry and don't have access to sleeping pills

      I look back on those days and laugh, but only because I know very well I could've died and nobody would've noticed or cared.

    Stop trying to replace the high and try live without any high. It sucks, for a long time it really sucks. But you'll come out better.

    Best piece of advice I ever got was to wait 10 minutes, have a craving and wait 10 minutes for it to pass instead of acting on it. Like muscles your brain will grow and the more you practice this the better you'll get at it.

    Also continue adding new shit to your life, if fitness is the only thing and you have a bad day at the gym for example, it'll be really easy to fall back in old habits. But if you are say reading a lot of books, studying something, learning a skill and fitness; you have a bad day at the gym, go home and study and read, learn a good amount and that will satisfy you instead of wallowing in your shit day at the gym and getting back to the bottle.

    It can actually be dangerous to go cold turkey without alcohol depending on how far into addiction you are. I would seriously consider medical intervention. There is a drug made that supposedly helps with addiction. Even if you successfully break the addiction, you must be wary of relapse.

      telling alcoholics they will die from quitting is such a moronic thing to say if they want to quit. and to die from it is if they stay at a consistent high blood alcohol level for a month or two then abruptly stop. and when i say high blood alcohol level i mean when they get to the point that being at a deadly % feels just fine. the people that drink like that are few and far between. also, antabuse is shit. alcoholics will still drink and then feel like they are dying and then just stop taking the antabuse.

    I have 3 beers a night with a steak, haven’t missed a day in 2 years. Moderation is the key, took me a while to get my brain to associate liquor with food and not a drug addiction so I don’t overindulge but it worked for me

    It sounds like you need to really frick up your life first before you decide to quit for good.

    Go to a doctor, or to rehab directly. No amount of thinking will solve this problem. Alcohol addiction is so common that the cures are starting to be pretty good. Trying to fix yourself using tips and tricks on a fitness forum mostly used by idiot teenagers is just wasting your time, you need outside intervention from a professional and that's how you're going to get better. You're getting it either now or in a couple years when you're way worse wishing you had done it sooner just like you now wish you had never started drinking.

    I quit drinking but feel as if I have no social life now. I’m sure god will light some sort of path eventually for me to act out his will during the weekends but do any ex-drinkers understand this lonely feel?

      Find groups that do shit outdoors
      I would say join a church but churches are gay.
      depending on what country you live in, there should be community events or volunteer things to do

        What about Friday/Saturday nights? I’m 29 so maybe I should be over it but I still feel like a loser not having plans on these two nights even though it’s not good for me to be out anyway, since everyone drinks and seems to not like people that are not also drinking

          Don't live for the weekend.
          Make every day count. Even your gay shitty job.
          Tons of people want a designated driver, but tbh you shouldnt hang out with people drinking. They are extra baggage and heavy weight weighingn you down.

          I hate that my younger sister in her early 20s is just going out every weekend. I tell her that that life isnt glamorous. You should be making teh foundation for your thirties forties and so forth now. She's a dyke and has gf and whole group of troony friends that frequent the gay bars and shit. But it's a waste of life.
          Instead of going to the bar and wasting two hundred dollars in a weekend, save all that money and take a weekend trip somewhere.

    I'm not an alcoholic (yet) but I need to cut it out as I make dumb decisions on it and waste my money.

    Problem is I'm lonely and rely on alcohol for socialisation to go out and meet people. Probably should join hobby groups instead tbh.

    Yesterday I drank 21 standard drinks and blew through 220.

    Saturday I drank 16 std drinks and did a bag of coke.

    God I need to sort this shit out.

    I gave in to alcohol after my father's death.
    I got to the point of drinking straight 90° alcohol if I ran out.
    Quit for a solid two years because I really wanted to fix my life.
    Started again after I got diagnosed with cancer, not as bad but I had 4 beers yesterday.
    Such is life.
