Hey everyone
I am having a bit of a problem having so much free time and not knowing what to do, which makes me think about drinking.
What did you do when you stopped drinking, or what do you do now to keep occupied?
I had 3 stages, first I owned my own online business and worked for myself at home and I would drink at the same time, then I was in the fire service and I wasn't drinking at all as I got up at roughly 5.30-6am to travel to another city then home after 8..my drink free time.
Stage 3 was back on drink after an accident and I lost my position, at home, no work, nothing to do at all so I started to drink both from depression and boredom.
I would really like to hear what other people did / do to combat just sitting around and thinking about going for a drink.
I go to AA every now and again, but not regularly.
I want to do normal things in life, these 3 stages have been since before I even left school (I am 25 now) - I used to socialise a lot but I was always drinking at the same time.
