#Alcohol Free

[sobriety-circle]

It's coming up to a season full of family and friends gatherings. If you are hosting one of these gatherings, here are some ways to support the sober people in your life (even if they haven't told you yet)

1. Don't give alcohol as a present. To anyone. You don't know where someone may be, even if you know them really well, so just don't force that onto anyone.

2. Serve lots of NA options. If you can go completely NA, that would be insanely cool on your part, but if you can't, then provide as many alternatives as you can. Make it a goal to offer the same amount, if not more, NA drinks.

3. Have a private room/area that you can turn into a "quiet time" room. If you notice someone who is just not having a good time, or isn't being themselves, tell them where the space is, and that they are allowed to use it if they need it. This isn't even just for people struggling with substance use, the holidays can be hard for a lot of people, and sometimes a quiet space is nice. (Bonus points if you put some puzzle books etc in there).

4. Don't ask why someone isn't drinking. It's none of your business. Maybe they're working on something, maybe they have health issues, maybe they're pregnant, maybe they're just punk enough to realize drinking sucks. Even if they do answer, it might change the atmosphere of the gathering. If someone else is pestering the sober guests, deal with it. Keep them safe.

4.5. If someone DOES tell you their reason without being asked, support them 100%.

5. AS A SUGGESTION, as the host, set an example and don't drink. If you can't do this, that's fine, but it definitely helps others feel comfortable if at least one other person is in the same booze free boat.

6. Be safe. Whether or not you're getting clean this winter, be careful, be smart, get help if you need, advocate for yourself or others.

6.5. Even if you haven't hit rock bottom, or aren't an addict, please consider sobriety. Just try it. Start on New Year's if you need to. You will inspire others who need it.

Add on if you have anything else 💜

शराब और स्व��स्थ्य:

शराब के कारण कैंसर जैसी बीमारियाँ होती हैं, जो जीवन को नष्ट कर देती हैं।

शराब और आर्थिक नुकसान:

शराब धन की बर्बादी का सबसे बड़ा कारण है। इसे त्यागें और बचत करें।

शराब का आध्यात्मिक प्रभाव:

शराब पीने वाले व्यक्ति का मन भक्ति में नहीं लगता।

DIRECTIONS IN STRAIGHTAGE:

• Hardliners are the strictest offshoot of the Straight edge subculture. The ideology of hardline was formulated by Vegan Reich vocalist Sean Muttaki. It involves the rejection of harmful substances. Hardliners do not consume coffee and energy drinks, considering caffeine to be a drug, and also refuse alcohol, nicotine and drugs. Strict dietary regime. Hardliners consume only non-animal food (strict veganism). A conservative attitude towards sex. Sex before marriage, refusal to view and buy porn products, refusal of artificial contraception and a ban on abortions are condemned. Sex is allowed only for the purpose of conception and in no other way. Most of the hardliners are active members of the Animal Liberation Front and the Earth Liberation Front. Activists release animals from scientific laboratories and livestock farms, find shelter and veterinary care for them.

•Militant sXe is an extremely radical offshoot of the straight edge subculture. 13 Its representatives fight by any means (up to violent ones) for the split of their ideas in society, as well as against any kind of drug addicts (including alcohol and tobacco) and the spread of light and heavy drugs. Representatives of the militant sXe are engaged in direct actions: they hold demonstrations, release animals from cages, smash alcohol and porn shops, as well as shops with furs and leather. At the origins of the militant movement was a group of young people from Boston who called themselves FSU (Friends Stand Together). Some of them worked as bouncers in clubs, caught drug dealers, destroyed drugs and took money, which was their main livelihood.

•Softline sXe (from English — "soft line" or "lax course") is an offshoot of the straight edge subculture, which opposes any kind of violation of human rights, animal rights, violence and violent acts, as well as universal equality. Softliners do not smoke, do not use drugs, alcohol, caffeine and do not have casual or promiscuous sexual relations. In addition, they fight against discrimination based on religion, gender or age and advocate for animal rights (they are vegetarians or vegans). Possible forms of nonviolent action by softliners: dissemination of propaganda information, oral propaganda among people around, boycotting products of companies related to the exploitation of animals, their killing, vivisection, holding concerts, demonstrations and pickets dedicated to specific topics.

•Vegan sXe is a direction of the straight edge subculture, which involves the complete rejection of animal products.

• Christian straightforward style. The Christian healthy lifestyle adheres to the path of complete rejection of what destroys the spirit, soul and body, he sets the main task to develop relationships with God and bring the principles of the Kingdom of God to people, in particular freedom from poisons, stimulants, drugs, bad habits, to bring love to people in practice, to reconcile them with Jesus. He keeps to this path because of his faith in Jesus Christ. A Christian's choice of a healthy lifestyle is an absolute rejection of drugs (light or not) - alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, etc. He can refuse that there is a drug for him personally. Sex before marriage, infidelity, and divorce are excluded. Same-sex relationships are considered a sin. Racial and national discrimination are rejected. A Christian is how he tries to love all people and does not notice that he is the main one for the ignorant. The evil of other people, in his opinion, will be punished by God. I am a person who sees that life has meaning and a scientific plan for everyone, and that a person can become a second if he gives up this very serious path to God.

P.S.: this author does not consider himself to be any other of these dirictions.

I went to check on an app and this was the result. I quit drinking entirely on the 20th of June due to my body physically rejecting alcohol and the damage alcohol has done to me, my friends, and partner.

With alcohol, I would be either very social and easy going or there would be a switch where I would mirror a lot of my abusers. It was not acceptable behavior and for that I take accountability by no longer drinking, with a consistent therapist, and finding ways to better myself through community and support.

Hurting yourself is also a form of abuse. Not only to yourself but to others. To allow a poison to spiral you into cycles is not healthy. I refuse to become what plagued my biological family. I am here to end the cycle.

What helps a lot with quitting outside of an allergy development is NA beers and to also try and quit smoking which I did early June as well. Smoking and drinking are social vices that play hand in hand with each other.

I am grateful to have reached 90 days without alcohol and I look forward to many more days, months, and years.

people rarely give me shit for being sober but a guy told me "ah pretty soon you'll stop whingeing and moaning and go back to the drink".

pleased to say i've been sober now for 1 year, 6 months, and 3 weeks.

so no, i haven't stopped moaning or gone back to the drink.

praying for your liver though, fuckface!

Debating going alcohol free - For a while? Forever? Who knows.

Working at a liquor store has really changed my outlook on alcohol.

It's so expensive, and for what? There are so many delicious, wonderful drinks without alcohol.

I'll miss wine, for sure... but, I think the benefits will outweigh that...

Anyways, nothing is set in stone, just thinking.

BARTROPIC! . . . a gender related to tropical bars & drinks! these drinks may be alcoholic or nonalcoholic but are all fruity and refreshing. this gender may feel relaxed and cool despite the tropical heat. this gender may be related to anything tropical & drink related, including songs like alcohol free by twice or characters & their skins. . . . the stripes do not have any specific meaning.

[PT: bartropic! END PT]

[IMAGE ID: two flags and then a divider.

the flags are almost the same, except the first additionally has a large symbol of a sun peaking out from behind a big tropical drink. the flags have 13 horizontal stripes. the top and bottom three are wavy and thin, while the rest are straight and equally thicker. from top to bottom, the colors are grey-purple, grey-indigo, red-pink, dull red-pink, red-orange, golden orange, dull golden, golden orange, sky blue, turquoise, medium green, turquoise, and light turquoise. there are pink cloud-like puffs randomly popping down from the top edge, and the same goes for the bottom edge but they're blue. the divider is a thin, solid black line. END ID]

O1 ; tagging @accessmogai for image ID. O2 ; requested by no one, coined by the hero! if anyone has already coined this, kindly let him know! O3 ; seeing as though this is her first time making a flag this complex, please let the prelude know if you like it. he appreciates any tips given to jaw.
