Confessions of a Former Alcoholic Part 19

I haven't had any alcohol for almost 12 days now, and staying sober has easily allowed me to control my thoughts and return my willpower to a normal level. It seems like it took some time for the thoughts coming from my subconscious to pass into my conscious mind.

While I did not consume any alcoholic beverages throughout the period of twelve days, I did increase the amount of cigarettes and coffee that I consumed. I can say that new habits are never formed if the environment or its inhabitants don't change.

I conducted a social experiment on myself to determine if my drunken condition repulsed me. In the course of today, I went to the store, purchased a single beer, and then consumed it.

I just came to the realization that I have a strong dislike to beer, as well as other alcoholic beverages. My move to a new setting has been of tremendous assistance. People execute the bread ritual throughout the service, particularly in places of worship like churches. (Because I am still in the process of receiving training, I was unable to recall the name of the ceremony because I am new to the church.)

Our pastor is notably accommodating (I recall it as priestly French), and they engage in conversations with parishioners every Sunday. If I can just exclude the tobacco issue from my life, that's fine.

The reason I'm doing this social experiment is because I believe almost nothing written online. You know, today's education system is a legacy of things. Universities are establishing startup centers, but the number of individuals founding companies and innovating remains relatively small.

Not everyone cares about social awareness issues so easily. Only those who have suffered know about such issues.

What I'm trying to express is that although these things often have roots, affluent individuals are interested in societal consciousness. Philanthropy necessitates this. People now have to pay for their education. Even businesses no longer provide services for free. Free items are exclusively found in mousetraps. This is a well-known and straightforward marketing strategy.

Even when I'm sober, I engage in social experiments on myself on social media. The reason I do social experiments on myself is because I'm afraid to talk about the horrible experiences I've had. That's why I write.

Everyone has creative qualities. Some individuals suffer from trauma, while others struggle with addiction... There are several cases like this.

Particularly with certain artists, their fans frequently harass them. I may have dealt harshly with some of them, but I still believe it's necessary. (I'd want to apologize to them, but there's nothing I can do.I am currently discovering my creative identity. (People may be rather prejudiced.)

Overcoming prejudice is really challenging; currently, I am working to address my biases against certain individuals. In other words, I'm aiming to be a global citizen. I am working on a project related to alcoholism.

As a consequence of my social experiment, I may have disliked alcohol and be a candidate to become a social drinker, but based on what I've seen, it's critical that I don't drink to avoid addiction from returning.

Nobody likes alcoholics, but I'm already experimenting with non-alcoholic beverages in preparation of the official opening of my bar.

I know I've been in bar fights in my day. Youth is lovely, but after you reach 30, you must drive consistently and cautiously. Another discovery I've observed is that married males tend to live longer lives. Women are somewhat more knowledgeable about health and science than males. Caesar's rights are always Caesar's.

That's why it's always good to know the historical background of the work.
