I was just misgendered and accused of pretending to be Nonbinary
I run a small community here on db0 where I post images of the AI horde and one of the users I recently banned decided to come back on another account and spam me with hateful messages, saying they think I'm pretending to be trans and that they think I'm a pedophile. They also decided to come back again after getting banned for that and spam posts in every meta community about how they think I'm a pedophile and deserve to be banned.
I don't care what your opinions of AI are, that's not acceptable. It's not okay to accuse people of being pedophiles or accuse them of pretending to be trans.
This is one of the worst days ever in a long time. I'm having a drink tonight, screw sobriety, I need it.
Don't let some asshole ruin more than your day. Don't let them take more away from you. Treat yourself to some real self care - something you'll thank yourself for in the morning.
Shoot me a DM if you want to talk.
How long have you been sober btw? I'm on year 2 myself - the longest ever for me. It started out as a simple break, but now I'm thinking I'm done for good. Not that I don't still think of it from time to time.
I was about two and a half years until I decided to drink again about 12 hours ago. I think I drank about 2 and a half glasses of Vodka before puking, it was terrible. I still feel like shit for breaking sobriety and also because drinking made me feel like shit. I used to drink way more than this before, to the point it was scary and I almost died several times, I vividly remember waking up once in the hospital with a policeman there because he found me unconscious in the gutter, I probably would be dead if he hadn't.
Damn zir that sucks for sure, but imo it's good you feel bad about it and not like so elated and delusional that you want to keep going looking for a new rock bottom. Mine was kind of similar (EMTs), although I didn't really fully come out of it. Woke up with these sticky things on me I guess to check my vital signs. I still keep one of them in my wallet as a, I dunno, kind of a reminder of one of my rock bottoms.
Here's a blog post by a cool person that I've found insightful and heartening, on the topic of sobriety. It's not like my own experience, or probably your own, but reading it gets me out of my own head and makes me look at the struggle from another perspective.
Anyway, I hope you feel better soon. Get yourself plenty of rest of electrolytes! And the DM offer is always open of course.
I'm currently resting and trying to recover. I still have a bad headache and my throat burns like fire. Thank you I'll definitely give that blog a read.
