    weed Didn't think I was ever gonna post something like this, but AAmirus said to so here we are.

    As of today I am 6 weeks sober. Most of the regulars I played with already know this, but most of the time I was playing Mafia, I was at least 4 beers deep. It's something you don't even really consider a problem, just part of daily routine until something happens. Getting banned from the game I love was a real wake up call and I realized the sauce unleashed a bunch of hate towards a bunch of innocent mafia players, so even though I'm here sober and I still hate Altech, I never really considered the impact on the good mafia playing people, and I think that's what AA was trying to make me realize all this time. After being able to look back and reflect on everything since I can't play the game, I've really been able to see the game from the eyes of the other 50% of the playerbase that aren't regulars and just regular people playing the game.

    And to all those people lynched randomly, or insulted for being dense by me I apologize to you guys. To me I was just having fun, but to you, you guys weren't having fun and in a game it's important for everyone to be having fun, not just some at others expense.

    The fact that random people I've never interacted with or though I had interacted with have a problem with me is evidence enough of the problem.

    I'm not expecting anything out of this, I just needed to apologize to all the people hurt by my alcoholism, so that I can carry on and continue with my life in a healthier manner.

    Thanks Aa for helping me realize that I needed to do this, sorry for all the trouble I caused you guys too.

    Sober Man, out.

    Just curious if your personal experience can attest to the validity of that video? It's 17min long, I understand if you don't want to be bothered watching it.

    Otherwise though, I imagine a therapist would be quiet enjoyable for Oberon specifically. Because the endlessly repeated questions of "what do YOU think?" would be like candy to him.

    His reality in sobriety is probably narrow and functions on a day-to-day basis. Saying stuff life "sober man out" is probably closer to self-encouraging than the way you took it.

    Don't worry bud. A lot of people are having fun playing with you, including me. Things are bland rn. I asked people around in PM and from another mod (keystone, dm 2.0, ks2, etc.) what they'd think about the system. I don't want to talk about it here. But you, getting permabanned also sealed the deal. No one makes a 72222 save and other fun saves are always initiated a leave train by some people cos it wasn't 933/8331. So yeah, don't worry about it. We had 6 months of fun. Also, Taeja and Innovation are also retiring from the pro scenes, funny coincidence. LOLOL. Only returned in sc2 cos of fuckin Avilo being creepy again.

    This is why I had to scale back: Gaming and drinking always had a "co-morbidity" kind of effect. It was enjoyable doing one when I was also doing the other.

    Breaking a gaming routine is easy. Breaking a drinking routine - with a literally physically and psychologically addictive substance - was hard.

    I was never a heavy drinker, but not being able to stop day-to-day, even when I wanted to... was terrifying.

    I still drink, but make an occasion of going out to buy it from the grocery store. And I never stock up. If it's in the house, it gets consumed just to get my money's worth. And if it's getting consumed, you can bet I won't be doing anything productive during.

    Only watched the first few seconds so I don't know if I got it right, but if it says that therapy doesn't have much of an effect... I would not be entirely surprised. I suspect a therapist would only sort of help you figure out what problem it is you have, but then again you can do that on your own if you put enough effort into it.

    For some people it's world changingly beneficial, while for others it's benefits are non-existent.
    I honestly think for your personality specifically it'd be very good.
    It's just that I think expectations should be tempered to the more realistic before going to a therapist because they're trained to avoid responsibility/accountability and would never tell you stuff like "do this and that and you'll be happier".

    There's those like the guy in that vid - who DO take responsibility and DO work with their patients TOGETHER. But that's not technically therapy anymore.

    Hey guys if at any point you thought this thread made a mockery out of the very real disease of Alcoholism I apologize. I tried not to make it seem like a joke and portray it seriously as it demands, but apparently I was being offensive so to anyone I offended with this post and AAmirus I am sorry. Thanks for all the supporting words too you guys are great.

    Okay then as I said before, if getting banned allowed you to get sober then it’s a good thing right?

    You think people can just break an addiction that quickly just because they get banned from a game? That's dismissive as fuck AAmirus. I got myself off the sauce, now you try to take credit for it by banning me? That's sickening AA, seriously disgusting stuff diminishing any other people with a real problem saying it's super easy you just gotta get yourself banned from sc2mafia.

    Appreciate the positive vibes Marshmellow. I will admit I was gaslighting AAmirus but that's only because I wanted to know what they truly thought instead of what they say. Show their true colours as it were, they were as I expected unfortunately.

Completely trashing zz for coming clean about his addiction. Its clear to me now that zz is being kept out based on the personal feelings of one or more people, and its wrong.
