Today I woke up hung over as hell. Puked several times. It’s almost 1pm and I just got out of bed. I still feel like I need to vomit. Days like these I feel like a worthless piece of shit. I don’t know why I do this to myself. But it needs to stop. Here’s to day one.

You are not worthless at all
I don’t know what you think of religion but some kind of light shinned on your path. Im not saying the hangover part , but the fact you are here tells me you have indeed had enough of alcohol
I hate hangovers
I usually get hung over the same day I drink
Stay strong!!
You got this!!

Hi Christian welcome!
Write down how bad you feel and why you wanna stop drinking. Put that piece of paper in your wallet and read it when you want to drink.
We tend to “forget” how bad our hangovers are when we are a few days sober.
Glad you are here, you will find many more tips here on this forum!
See you around! 🙋

You are worth so much friend. Get involved with the community here in the various threads that interest you.
Many here are also involved in community programs like AA, in person or online. Many here say that they find life time bonds there.
The same would go for here.
I’m happy for you that you’ve decided to make this change in your life.

Just make sure tomorrow you tell yourself the same thing. We’ve all been there on a hangover day and told ourselves we won’t drink again, when you feel better tomorrow you gotta tell that to yourself everyday because just cause you feel better doesn’t mean that you can go drink again because you’re an addict. It’s time to make a difference in your life and you are capable and can do that. Stick around do some reading.

I know it could seem like a very small, inconsequential reason to stay sober but never waking up with a hangover has honestly been my #1 reason to stay sober for the past 3 years. I used to feel like shit every morning from drinking. And if I managed to string two days together where I didn’t drink, then for sure I was getting drunk on the 3rd night and my days were consumed with when I could drink again.
Alcohol and subsequently being hungover takes away everything good in my life. I’m happy I get to say I’ll never be hungover again.
Congrats on the start of your journey, you will feel so much better soon.

I made myself believe if I didn’t keep alcohol in the house, I would be fine. Because when it’s in the house, it doesn’t stay for long. I believed I would be able to control my drinking socially, since I’m not drinking all the time. I can go out, have a few drinks & know when to stop.
I lied to myself, I no longer can drink socially. I completely binge drink when I go out. I act as if all the alcohol is going to run out. I make horrible decisions and act invincible, like driving blackout drunk.
I’m grateful I woke up alive today. I’m grateful I didn’t kill anyone or myself last night.
I no longer want to feel this way. I want to remember my fun nights out. I don’t want to wake up feeling like shit and regret.
I come from a long line of addicts.
Today is my first day of becoming the best version of me and the last day of shame of the things I don’t remember. 
Day 1

What I remember of my last hangover was feeling absolutely worthless.
That was 1345 days ago. That was the last time I felt worthless. Never again.
