    I know you've had a few people on here comment, but I'm


    14m sober now, took a range of methods.

    Depending on how you drink (i.e. if youre physically


    dependent,signs are having shakes, sweats, vomitting,
    hallucinations when you sober up) you may need to taper
    or have some medical help. Stopping abruptly can be very
    dangerous and can kill you, consult or doctor if you're
    concerned (you can do this with an online appointment, a
    lot of charities and services will guide you through it free of
    charge, or if you're in a country with free healthcare then
    reach out)

    Drop me a message if you ever wanna talk about it,


    whether it's stopping and being t-total, or just cutting back,
    no judgement from me dude.

    Good luck, you can do it and it's bloody worth it.

    I lost a friend to her parents taking her booze away


    when she came home for Christmas, they didn’t realize
    how bad she was. Had seizures, they called 911, ended
    up in the hospital and all her organs ended up shutting
    down. Dead at 57 :-(

    It’s kind of crazy how one of the most common


    substances is also one of the few that can kill you from
    withdrawals.

    It is great for the brain damage caused by alcohol


    and drug use, so yes. Does alcohol still have a
    "magnetic" attraction to the recovered alcoholic?
    Hallucinogenics turn off that addiction/magnetism
    nicely

    I think it has to be 'guided' by a counselor who


    helps you decide you don't need to drink while
    you have all that neuroplasticity. I've tripped off
    shrooms quite a bit and, if I'm totally honest with
    myself, am an alcoholic. If anything, coming
    down off the shrooms always makes me want a
    drink, otherwise my brain is still buzzing too hard
    to sleep.

    Daily micro doses of shrooms tied to therapy


    and meditation would do wonders for any
    living soul I imagine. One trip changed my
    life. I began to appreciate the little things, the
    fine details, and also began painting which I
    hadn't done since I was a child. Shrooms are
    the key and there are a few companies
    leading research in this area. It will be the
    next legalization after marijuana. The
    mushroom rush will be here soon.

    John Oliver’s “Last Week Tonight” JUST had a


    segment about mushrooms and how it helps treat
    alcoholism this past Sunday. That segment is
    available for free on YouTube. Just search for it

    Many people have talked about how lsd or


    psilocybin has helped them with addiction. Should
    give it a google.

    It’s not a hard and fast always works fix tho, there is
    a lot of work to do on your side.

    Please don’t cut cold turkey, you can die doing that.
    Really need to speak to a dr OR if you or someone
    you trust can help you taper down. Just be sure you
    don’t cheat on the taper or a lot of the shit resets.

    Good luck you can do this.

    I'm a recovered alcoholic. I used to feel the room spinning


    and didn't realize it was alcohol poisoning. I have no idea
    how I'm alive.

    When people pass out drinking how far is that from


    alcohol poisoning ? I mean how do you know that it's
    time to stop.

    how do you know that it's time to stop

    Usually if you're wondering if it's time to stop, that's


    a pretty good indicator that it's time to stop.

    I can't emphasize this enough: do not ignore the warning


    signs of a heart attack. I'm 46, lost a high school friend to a
    widowmaker in March 2020, 6 months before I had double
    bypass (LAD was 95% blocked). Even if you don't value
    your life, there's someone out there that does.

    He was extremely yellow one day and I finally


    convinced him to go to hospital. He went for tests, they
    said he had 3-5 years to live. He died 6 weeks later.

    I definitely understand the struggle. I am a former


    opiate addict. It's never easy to quit especially when
    it's everywhere like alcohol is. What helped me alot
    was to get into lifting weights. The endorphins help
    your mood alot and you never have a hard time
    sleeping
