The insomnia was the hardest part for me since as a daily user I would previously fall asleep within seconds of my head hitting the pillow. The dreams were incredibly vivid - and the nightmares. 😨 Trying to really reign it in in 2026.
This happened to me too! I also started an SSRI for my anxiety and my psychologist said that would cause my dreams to be more vivid too. I had a dream last night that I accidentally ripped my back skin off and had to go to the emergency room. Then I had to live with my, all of sudden, crack head father in a hostile while I was recovering from surgery. Sometimes they feel like they’re nightmares when I wake up but so real when dreaming.
something thats helped me a lot is remembering that recovery isn’t a linear path.
if you’re driving from New York to California, then make an unplanned stop in Nebraska, you aren’t back in New York. you just gotta deal with the fact you’re in Nebraska and move on.
Falling off the wagon doesn’t mean you have to give up for good, you can always start again. I believe in you. It should be more about overall accumulation rather than the neverending streak. You’re allowed to be fallible if you can course correct, no one will look down upon you less.
Detours like that happen to most of us. It’s totally worth it once you finally arrive at the place where you don’t need it anymore. It’s an amazing feeling.
A week away from 2 years without a drink and damn this year’s been testing me real fucking hard, I nice cold whisky and cola would go down real fucking nice right now.
Idk man, you seem to be the one writing novellas crying about obviously facetious comments in a shitpost community, telling people what is and isn’t ok.
You may wanna take a look in the mirror to check who is actually the bitchbaby here.
Blorp dev here. I’m copying the thumbnail url into the post url, but perhaps that’s incorrect. I’m open to suggestions. Again, not confident I’m handling this correctly, but one advantage of setting post.url is cross posts are compared via url, so setting that url would allow Lemmy to associate cross posts of the same image.
On the rendering side, Blorp scans post.url and if it’s an image (e.g. ends in .png), it renders it as an image post. But perhaps not all clients do that.
Thanks! Perhaps Thunder (what I am using) does the same, but since this is an avif it’s not picked up in filters. I’ll start keeping a list of extensions as I see these, as “links vs images” seems to be happening more in posts. The information collection continues.
I only drink pretty rarely, because sometimes I misremember the taste of booze and think they tasted alright (no, they didn’t, especially the cheap stuff used to get drunk on the cheap).
I drink when I feel like it. I felt like it once last year and twice this year. I’ve went five years without so much as a beer. I know though that there are those out there that have a problem with moderation and its important they don’t imbibe even once.

Six and a half weeks sober from weed and counting! Trying to make it to 2026
Hey your insomnia is probably better by now! How were the wild dreams?

Excellent fuck yeah
19 months and 6 days sober… but a Lemmy post told me what to do, so I’m going to get fucking drunk.
This society kills my sobriety
This goes hard. Damn.
Stoicism corrected that statement for you.
Too late, spent the last month drinking after 11 months sober 😭

you got this. stay strong.
I fucking love this!
11 months is an amazing streak! I reckon you can do 12 next time, give it another go big fella! We’re all cheering you on ❤️
Nooo :(
I hope you’ll get back on track. Setbacks are ok. It took me about 5 years to get sober once I started trying.

Oh, you’re fine. It took me 4 1/2 years to get over sobriety and back to normal life.
You’ve wasted much less time.
I’ve been drunk like twice, both times sucked, not doing it again.
1 week from 2 years sober. Feels good, man
1 week from 60 days. Way to go!
Congrats! It happens faster than you might think

Too late :3

Health is for losers.
Go on a Rager that people will talk about for decades.
(You may want to consider what community you’re posting in)
I’m gonna post wholesome stuff even harder now
King shit
I’m gonna take a shot for every wholesome post let’s let’s fuckin goooooo
I mean that’s fine, as long as you’re aware that people shitcomment on shitposts

I would but I don’t have any bulldozers or thick steel plating
A large dose of PCP is a good replacement for either

Lol go re-read the thread, and then reflect on who you’re describing in your diatribe 😏
Honestly, Poe’s law is going hard here. I can’t tell if you’re doing a bit or not.
I could easily see her make a statement like this. I believe in based Samus.
Let’s all stay healthy and safe so we can experience the pain and torment that is surely in our future ♥️
I’m drunk as I read this.
There will be no sobriety in this society
But… being drunk is the only time when I am social…
What client did you post this with? Trying to debug why it’s a link instead of the image.

Thanks Mr. Metroid!
I say, go with the intrusive thoughts.
Day 3 for me. Not giving it up for good, just taking a much needed tolerance break (which I should do way more often than twice a year.)
Usually I compensate for lack of alcohol with more energy drinks, but I’m off those too and it fucking sucks.
But why, though?
I only drink pretty rarely, because sometimes I misremember the taste of booze and think they tasted alright (no, they didn’t, especially the cheap stuff used to get drunk on the cheap).

you either know this song or you’ll love it:

But if you decide to, I’ve got plenty of booze. I’m not much of a drinker but I have accumulated a collection via various sources and enjoy sharing.
Slow down mefistofeles
Meh
Yeah, more people are sober and more people are isolated and miserable.
I’ll get the next round guys. Your mental state is more important than your liver.
In this world you’re either a “Big psych industry” or “Big Booze industry” type
Small booze industry. Support the independents!
Hell yeah! I always grab an independently brewed craft beer before my private and independent therapy session. ACT stands for
A: Accept my feelings (I want beer and the thought that started it was the association I’ve made between alcohol and 5pm)
C: Choice - decide how to act in line with your system of values - supporting local businesses and communities
T: Take action - glug glug So anyways, I’m always a bit depressed the day after i get drunk.. Like it’s weird.
Alcohol cured my depression
