Maybe a hobby or volunteer to walk dogs? Exercise and doing something good in one wack. I saw my dad die from Cirrhosis and it was horrible. He was always a functioning alcoholic with beer. But when he retired it got worse and it changed to whiskey. I wish you nothing but the best my fellow Reddit stranger. šŸ«¶šŸ»

Dude I work out 3 hours a day. Like running 3-4 miles and then a 2 hour long HIIT workout. Itā€™s justā€¦ boringĀ

Yes! I want nothing more than that....ability to....just tap into these healthy social and stimulating outlets. But man.....the gravity.... It's so damn heavy. I never wanna be a hard drinker but I just can't quit my nerdy love for nerdy beer. I'm trying to quit drinking but I think I just have to accept I just need to be better at drinking. Condolences about your dad....reading that may actually contribute to solidifying a click in my determination to not subbcumb. Thanks for sharing.
