Should i quit alcohol and other drugs for good?

I don't take any drugs but I sometimes use food as it were a drug. Or other things that gives dopomine like video games. Of course it's not that bad comparing to harder drugs though. It theory the less you stimulate your brain with dopomine faster your overstimulated dopomine receptors should heal. But at the same time be careful with it. Cos sometimes we can burn out if we do too much at once and that can lead to relapse. So just know yourself and be careful.

 

Quit all this retarded shit. Alcohool is just stupid, the most harmful drug as people are unwilling to talk about its destructive addiction capacity.

 

There is no problem if you can moderate your habits. I drink no more than 2 glasses of wine and I feel good. But if you feel dizzy after anything of it and are not able to continue your day, then it's a problem.

 

Just kick out all the bad habits, you don't need any of that, your body will thank you and your mind will start treating you like you're a champion.

Nothing feels better than being 100% in control, not having addictions and not needing any weird substances in your body.

 

As a former stoner, alcoholic, and smoker I'd say stay away from them completely. It's better to be fully present in the moment than having substances control your moods and hinder your memory. It's a slippery slope that's best to be avoided.

 

I'm also new to this and I'm glad you brought up the drug and porn/ masturbation combination. I've decided to abstain from all of it. If I go without one but continue to use another as a crutch then I'll prevent myself from experiencing a full recovery because I would be keeping myself from feeling the authentic effects of sobriety. Thanks for sharing btw!

 

There is two points of view on this.

I think just having some beers once in a week and a just little bit of weed on the month is not a big deal.
In fitness world, a lot of people advises to have "cheat meal" once in a week in order to be more disciplined the rest of the time. Some beers and some weed can be your "cheat meal".

In a other hand, I have achevied full veganism in only one day with making the strong commitment of eating ZERO animal products (I was meat eater a the time) It was like the begininning of something new and it worked really well. If you're a perfectionnist and feels that cuting all the dopamine providers can be help you in order to be more efficient on your NoFap journey, you can try it too.

Your call

 

I'm pretty sure if you ask any reputable bodybuilder/fitness model none of them will tell you to drink some beers and smoke some week on your cheat meal days haha. Bad food is harmful enough to your body let alone alcohol on top of your cheat day. Weed is natural and I think it should be legal, but there's studies linked to weed and depression too, so keep that in mind.

 

Beer and weed isn't worst than a huge McDonalds cheat meal lunch, fast food is kind of addictive too and even more unhealthy as beer or weed.

And I just said that some beer or weed can be the "cheat meal" not used WITH the cheat meal haha.

Plus, like I said there is two points of view on this and I don't have preference for one or another.

Anyway I'm 0 days so I'm not the one to read first haha

 

It's better for sure. They both are substances with acknowledged physical benefict effects.

 

I am a smoker for now, but I plan on quiting when I hit 30 days. I dont do it all at once so I have the feeling of more control. alcohol is next, but alcohol has never felt like a problem so I think im gonna make it a weekend thing and not drink during the week. Anyway, I think its good to stop using drugs because it does have an effect. only question is if you can do it all at once..

 

I am a recovering alcoholic and pot head. I have more info on my journal... but I can honestly say, when I was masturbating, immediately after orgasm, I had a huge craving to go drink or smoke pot. I think all three of them are definitely combined together if you find release in them. I have also had experiences in the distant past of smoking marijuana and then slipping up after long streaks of PMO abstinence. I wouldn't be worried about a couple responsible beers here and there, but definitely marijuana can lead to a PMO slip. Why risk it?

 

Quit it all

 

Will hurt like hell but be worth it in the end

 

I am doing no PMO and no profanity. If I use profanity I give myself one swat on the bare fanny with a wooden spoon. A sore buttocks reminds me not to swear
