I have struggled with my alcoholism for some time and finally was able to get sober. I’d like to pay it forward and decided to start /c/sobriety for ANY drug/alcohol addiction for those currently or afflicted in the past and ready to nurture and guide newcomers to sober living.
If that’s you, please join and help me to grow a wonderful place in the fediverse for sober living. Thank you for the consideration and I look forward to seeing you in our community ;)
Good luck!
There are two other popular sobriety communities, but I don’t know of any that are as broad as yours.
Ah, interesting. I searched using the keyword drinking and alcohol as well and those didn’t come up. Don’t know why. But, yeah, I wanted a much broader community than just drinking seeing how other addictions fall by the wayside frequently. I think we’ll be able to carve ourselves a nice little niche for those who need it.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !stopdrinking@lemmy.world, !stopdrinking@discuss.tchncs.de
I’m ready to lurks, thanks
Glad to have you! I hope that it’s a good source of help for you 😇
I’m addicted to Lemmy, so IDK if this will help
Turns out the lemmy detox is, in fact, more lemmy
Ngl the wink emotes are giving this post a very strange vibe
Rofl, I was on the fence about it but wanted to affect a friendly vibe. I suppose, maybe I should alter it.
Oh it gave a friendly vibe, alright ;)
I can finally start dealing with my internet addiction!
Wait…
I’m coming up on 2 years of no alcohol. I know a lot of people have trouble quitting, but I was lucky and able to quit cold turkey and not miss it. Just got fed up with coming to work hungover/intoxicated every day and drinking before bed. Also lost like 60 pounds just from that so it’s been a great change. Good luck to everyone going through it
I’m addicted to many things…
Can you make a link that works for kbin people?
Sure! How would I do that though? (I’m new)
No clue im just a big lurker but i know it can be done
