My friends trying to get me to go home when I keep trying to order one last drink

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

Going to a gig tonight and for the first time since I was 16 I'm going to do it sober which is gonna be weird

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

Knocking the booze on the head for a bit, not forever but I've been going through a very shit time lately and using booze to cope, which usually just makes it worse, so thought best give my body and mind a rest, hopefully recalibrate and learn slightly better impulse control

Also this is the t-shirt, I should have no sad feelings about this t-shirt

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

Christ I hate break up like "Oh cool, now I own a t-shirt that makes me sad"

@hawrth thanks I used to write. short stories all the time and then just totally stopped, I realised I've got a ton of books to get through. I think I'd stink at watercolour but there's got to be something I can pick up instead

If anyone has any tips for like please let me know, do I learn bake? Attempt a novel? Maybe finally release that album I always talk about making when I drink?

@bacchusrights Good man

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@_georgeabby Yeah like the point I got to was like you're just self medicating now dude, might be a good time to go to therapy, can probably afford from what I'll save in the pub

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@and_find_out That's good advice about having something to do with your hands, I need to think of a project

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@cobblerBobcat Hahaha that's actually amazing

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@bacchusrights Cool that actually makes me feel better I'm aiming to do at least a couple of months, even if just helps me learn moderation, I'm glad things are better for you dude, congratulations 🎊

@HWrightComedy You could remove "Non alcohol" and that'd still be true

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@HWrightComedy I might pretend to be incredibly smashed so they don't even resent giving me water

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@HWrightComedy Ah, well they can't stop me ordering a water even if they do think I'm a piece of shit. Just had the thought of those alcohol free beers but then I just don't think I'd unlearn the behaviour idk

@cobblerBobcat Long Blondes for a fiver

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@cobblerBobcat Oh god the fuzz club and yeah there were so many bands I saw multiple times without ever trying to, Larrakin Love, Dirty Pretty Things, The View probably in double digits and they particularly never, ever got better

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@_georgeabby Thanks, I've always drank too much tbh but when you're in a depressive episode it can get really bad really fast

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@cobblerBobcat First gig was Rsmstein but I was 14 so sober first drunk gig was, I wanna say The Mystery Jets and we all drank lambrini on the train

[man who lives in a haunted hotel @ScaryNewDad]

@cobblerBobcat No it'll be the first one I've gone to sober I mean, at 16 I'd round a mates house and we'd have a couple of cans or something
