if i find that being sober is incredibly boring?.... i have this friend who likes being sober... i was like.. wow. seriously. wow. lol -- i dont need to be intoxicated to have fun. fuck. oh well.
i used to be that way. now Ive been sober for 11 months, besides the occasional LSD/mushroom trip. i really really like sober life. i was addicted to marijuana and it WAS my life. now i actually have a real life, and i love it. i will begin smoking weed again in 1-2 months, but it will be occasionally. i will have more respect for myself and marijuana. sobriety, to me, is necessary.
Sometimes it's actually boring indeed. Perfectly normal to think that, not a problem. When you'd be trying not to be sober at all to keep yourself happy it's a problem though. Most of the time I'm not bored at all sober, happily.
It may tend to be boring, but if you alter your mind just to stay entertained, you're running away from reality, and that is never a good thing.
you have conversations with yourself even when youre in a conversation with someone else, I doubt you being sober or wasted will change that.until i start talking with you through posts:H
I'm sober most of the day. I've been sober for at least 48 hours now, its not that bad. Just keep yourself busy. Do laundry, join a gym, talk the dog, watch TV, Play video games.
I used to not like being sober. Now I prefer being sober. Having a clear mind is always good. So is learning to deal with reality in a healthy way.
I really love escaping reality, but everyones right, being sober isnt that bad. utilize the energy and go plant a garden or make something.
sad thing about me is that i will sometimes drink or smoke because of my anxiety problems. plus i really love drinking beer! but it shouldnt be boring. entertainment is what you make of it, not what the drugs make of it. I am suppose to take 6 mg of kolonopin daily to keep my anxiety down, if i cant afford the meds and i run out, which has happened before, I find myself actually drinking nightquil to calm myself down!
I smoke because I have really bad anxiety, too, Ghost. But if I don't have any available, I deal with it. Sometimes even smoke doesn't really help it, especially lately. I still spend a majority of my life sober and enjoy it for the most part. Haha.
