Wow happy to hear that. Im norwegian and take the cold shower every morning. Always makes me wake up, and most of the time brings a good mood and laughter aswell.
Yes, this is my experience as a full time artist. All income come from gigs.
I preferred the torrent era. At least then it was honest, and without all the trashy ads (even for paid spoti abo that was supposed to be ad free... )
Gratitude diary: boat trip with my friend and two of our kids.

Embrace it while remembering that its a feeling that passes by very fast if not reinforced by spiral thoughts. That energy must be let out by activity, fighting, dancing, running, singing, screaming and so on. As long as not locking it up or hurting people seriously (yourself included) its very healthy part of every daily life that has an undeserved bad reputation 🖤🪭
Writing it out in diary with pen and paper also good for me🙃
Today I am celebrating 4 years without alcohol. I am happy.
As a musician and techno DJ for ten years drinking alcohol as a part of every gig and studiosession sneaked in early in my career. With drinking as an anchor in most free time and social situations aswell, the daily habit comprised my lifestyle of long nights, traveling and music producing daytime (where the boss of the company (me🙃) always supported the open bar.)
As I got closer to 30 years bi-effects of the ongoing party started to appear. I wouldnt describe it as full blown alcoholism. Just a few drinks every evening, and many two/three days a week.
Relationships where going well, work was great and life was good, except to little excersice.
One evening I came home from the studio after working and drinking with a friend. I was talking with my wife an hour or more before bed. It was summer and sometimes I sleep outside on the balcony (by choice, not forced by my love 😃). In Norway summer nights are almost as bright as day.
Hangover started appearing while I was still awake. Sweating, body and soul aching, desperately needing water but at the same tired from getting up to take a piss repeatedly.
Cold sweating on my quiet balcony in the bright night I decided to go 100 days 0 alc. Just to confirm I was able to.
I was sure life would lose all colours.
After just a few weeks the worst abstinences started letting go, and my body and mind was stronger. Feelings and emotions got more stable than I had experienced since before puberty.
After 100 days I was laughing because it was so obvious I was going to continue the alcfree life.
I am still an emotional guy, on rainy days I cry. But I definately feel stronger and lighter now than in my twenties.
To be clear: I still do my 20hr hedonistic raving at Berghain a few times a year. The experience is just so much better without alcohol dragging me down.
Drugs and everything else is a matter of balance, and saying no to everything isnt life either. But for now I will continue 0alc for many years I am sure.
If this hit a fragile spot in your heart I invite you to do100days0alc. Its easier than it sounds. And if you need support in deciding or while doing it pleastr reach out to me. I would love to share this magic with everyone who needs it. Everybody who dont: please enjoy your drink! Enjoying what we do makes it more healthy! ⚔️🖤🪭

You can do it. Its different for everyone. Sometimes it needs careful planning and sometimes it happen suddenly.
Fear of whats coming is many times worse than actual experience. The actual experience vary and have also upsides. Fear is only bad.
To be more spesific 21st july 2020 i decided to start my break 1st august. Needed to know I at least had a week to adjust to the project. But then suddenly after not drinking the d y after the described scene and another day I suddenly understood it was already started.
Good luck, wish you all the best.
Yes! On it! Nr. 3 Water: I add salt to water I drink. Keeps body in balance.
I start every day with two minutes showering in cold water. Makes me awake and happy even when kids have kept me up at night 😃
