I’m appreciate this rundown. My issues with alcohol are ongoing and mainly surround habitual evening wine drinking for sleep and destressing. For sleep it works, but you know the rest. Have a chronic pain condition so that’s another layer of static to wade through. Been stuck in an endless cycle of quit and then caving for about two years or so now. Basically something similar to your techniques, and I’m currently at the quit the weed too point. Still trying… Columbus is not a good town to be sober in, alcohol basically IS the height of culture here almost like nowhere else I’ve seen outside of a frat house, so I commend you on your self control!
Congratulations on your first year - what a tremendous accomplishment! Also, the miles you've logged on the bike are hella impressive as well. I'm really glad you're still here, managing your sobriety, and covering politics in the great state of Ohio like no one ever has.
