Hello comrades and welcome to the third improvement megathread of August! bonfire

As usual, some discussion ideas:

  • Do you want to share something you’ve done in the previous week? Everything counts, nothing is too small.
  • Do you have any plans or goals for the following week?
  • Do you have any streaks? For example, “sober for one day.” Feel free to post your streak every day in this thread.
  • If you don’t have a continuous streak, did you manage to abstain from something for a day or more?
  • Did you come across some useful information or resource that might help others?

Good luck with your goals! unity

    just learned this thread exists! reposting from the general megathread: i need to quit solo drinking at home. i need to actually try to do it this time. maybe it would lead into mostly giving up drinking period, but for right now quitting social drinks is just too big of an ask so im starting here. any sober comrades want to chime in with tips? even though i’m not going full sober (yet if ever), i’m sure many of the same tactics apply.

      My thing is going to be one drink a week as my short term goal. Usually it’s wine which is something that is even enjoyed by people in blue zones.

      However, I still fully intend to quit drinking altogether one day, it’s a huge tax. Same reason I quit soda.
