I did it all the week. I did it since decades.

Now I understand that alcohol is making me depressed with suicidal thoughts (+ all the other bad things it does).

So I’m trying to !stopdrinking@lemmy.world, failed this month but ready to start my 30 days challenge again.

Alcohol really does not help with depression or problems, it’s actually the exact opposite as all drugs do.

Let’s make a pact, when we feel down and want to drink, don’t and just go for a walk outside. We can do it.

After a while walking outside does nothing to you, it actually depressed me more being alone while I see other people dating

Don't know why you're being down voted. I understand how going outside and seeing others make you more depressed. It takes a couple of tries but there are some unpopulated trails that you could walk without seeing much people
