Sure! How would I do that though? (I'm new)
Rofl, I was on the fence about it but wanted to affect a friendly vibe. I suppose, maybe I should alter it.
I'll start off.
Hello everyone, I'm Kvasir and I'm an alcoholic. I had a real tough couple of years. My fiance died and I hit the bottle hard to numb the grief and the pain of losing her. I drank more in these past two plus years than I ever have before.
It was an everyday, all day type of madness that culminated in the second worst day of my life after her passing from a terrifying first encounter with delirium tremens hallucinations.
From that moment on the desire to drink was forever taken (blessedly!) from me. I have just two weeks so far, but these two weeks are the greatest I've felt in years and each day keeps getting better as I go.
I hope everyone who comes here finds a sanctuary that they can use to explore new tools and strategies to deliver them into the life truly want and need. Thank you all for joining this little digital nook. I hope you enjoy your time here ;)
Glad to have you! I hope that it's a good source of help for you 😇
Haha, thanks. Still getting versed in the new ways of the fediverse, was mistakenly thinking that subs were considered instances. I appreciate the heads up 👍
Not that I could find. That's why I created !sobriety@lemmy.ml and made it about addiction broadly instead of one particular drug so as to get a sizable community going on lemmy to get more users to support each other in their struggles.
My fav was downloading a track and then every 10~ish seconds it playing 'this is Mike Jones'
Turns out the lemmy detox is, in fact, more lemmy
