I feel that;
If more people were nicer,
That’ll make not drinking easier,
If less people were on edge,
And if more people were easier to be around,
That’ll make not drinking,
A whole lot easier,
If people were more inclusive,
More supportive,
More welcoming,
That’ll make it so much easier,
To reduce heavy drinking,
If deep feelings were more deeply regarded,
If people’s feedback was less mean-spirited and more kind and helpful as for how to truly feel and function better and better,
That’ll make not drinking,
Or just doing it less,
So much easier,
If there was better team spirit,
Deeper connecting and less talking shit,
That’ll make heavy drinking,
So much easier to quit,
If there was less intense painful emotions,
(That I may rely on any (harmful) amount of alcohol (or whichever harmful amount and frequency of any lucrative recreational and/or psychiatric prescription drug(s)) for instantly blocking out those intense feelings..),
Then yes..,
Drinking far less,
Would feel way easier,
If more people become LESS dismissive when I share my feelings,
I would instead feel less painfully alone with how I feel,
Resulting in feeling less of a need to block out as much (emotional) pain through a certain level of alcohol consumption..,
Yet as several appear to say,
Since I “can’t pave the world leather”,
I can (at least try to) notice my breath and changing frequencies of inner emotional/physical reactions and/or (whichever) internal sensations continue to manifest and pass without trying to push those feelings down causing them to painfully build causing me to become more susceptible to drinking (to instantly (temporarily) block the painful emotions out in the only way I might feel able to) as a result..,
So instead,
I can breathe,
Notice and (hopefully) develop more and longer lasting peaceful acceptance,
With the hope of it feeling easier through practice,
Including,
Drinking less,
and less
