    I only drink pretty rarely, because sometimes I misremember the taste of booze and think they tasted alright (no, they didn’t, especially the cheap stuff used to get drunk on the cheap).

    Day 3 for me. Not giving it up for good, just taking a much needed tolerance break (which I should do way more often than twice a year.)

    Usually I compensate for lack of alcohol with more energy drinks, but I’m off those too and it fucking sucks.

    19 months and 6 days sober… but a Lemmy post told me what to do, so I’m going to get fucking drunk.

      Falling off the wagon doesn’t mean you have to give up for good, you can always start again. I believe in you. It should be more about overall accumulation rather than the neverending streak. You’re allowed to be fallible if you can course correct, no one will look down upon you less.

      Oh, you’re fine. It took me 4 1/2 years to get over sobriety and back to normal life.
      You’ve wasted much less time.

      something thats helped me a lot is remembering that recovery isn’t a linear path.

      if you’re driving from New York to California, then make an unplanned stop in Nebraska, you aren’t back in New York. you just gotta deal with the fact you’re in Nebraska and move on.

      you got this. stay strong.

      Nooo :( I hope you’ll get back on track. Setbacks are ok. It took me about 5 years to get sober once I started trying.

      Detours like that happen to most of us. It’s totally worth it once you finally arrive at the place where you don’t need it anymore. It’s an amazing feeling.

        The insomnia was the hardest part for me since as a daily user I would previously fall asleep within seconds of my head hitting the pillow. The dreams were incredibly vivid - and the nightmares. 😨 Trying to really reign it in in 2026.

          This happened to me too! I also started an SSRI for my anxiety and my psychologist said that would cause my dreams to be more vivid too. I had a dream last night that I accidentally ripped my back skin off and had to go to the emergency room. Then I had to live with my, all of sudden, crack head father in a hostile while I was recovering from surgery. Sometimes they feel like they’re nightmares when I wake up but so real when dreaming.

    What client did you post this with? Trying to debug why it’s a link instead of the image.

      Blorp dev here. I’m copying the thumbnail url into the post url, but perhaps that’s incorrect. I’m open to suggestions. Again, not confident I’m handling this correctly, but one advantage of setting post.url is cross posts are compared via url, so setting that url would allow Lemmy to associate cross posts of the same image.

      On the rendering side, Blorp scans post.url and if it’s an image (e.g. ends in .png), it renders it as an image post. But perhaps not all clients do that.

        Thanks! Perhaps Thunder (what I am using) does the same, but since this is an avif it’s not picked up in filters. I’ll start keeping a list of extensions as I see these, as “links vs images” seems to be happening more in posts. The information collection continues.
