A weekly thread hosted by Filmcricket where people can discuss the habits they want to change or their relationships with booze, food, drugs, what-have-you.
In which your host was too distracted by work and the Olympics to remember to post last week. Sorry about that, everyone. Possible discussion topic: anyone else inspired by Olympians to try to do better, health- or habits-wise? I definitely … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host spent the weekend staving off panic attacks thanks to work and the general state of the world. How is everyone else doing? Is this thread still of use to folks? Continue reading Breaking The Habit
In which your host saw the pictures from her vacation and said: “Uh oh.” Definitely time to make some changes. Further info in the comments when I have a chance to do so. How is everyone else doing? Continue reading Breaking The Habit
In which your host regrets coming back from vacation. The day I arrived back in Ontario the LCBO went on strike, which is a good opportunity to cut back on consumption. I haven’t, but it’s a good opportunity. I actually … Continue reading Breaking The Habit
In which your host is on vacation and not checking her notifications. Talk amongst yourselves. Possible topic: Given that it’s a holiday for the Americadoes, and was one for us Canuckicadoes a couple of days ago, how do you avoid … Continue reading Breaking The Habit
Since spoiler tags don’t work in the headers, CW for self-harm. Also discussions of therapy. So, last week I had an extra-long and painful therapy session to discuss whether or not my drinking (and other less than great habits) had … Continue reading Breaking The Habit
In which your host is fighting a weather headache and doesn’t have much to say. How is everyone doing with their goals? Continue reading Breaking The Habit

Don’t have a lot to say this week. Tapering is the goal, leading up to vacation time. How is everyone else doing? Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host sees the end of May and the rapid approach of the summer solstice and thinks about what she really wants. How is everyone else doing? Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host is plain exhausted, y’all. I’m not doing well with this and I’m tired of fighting my brain. How is everyone else doing? Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host is annoyed, suffering from insomnia, and would like to give more than a few people what for. In more relevant news, still drinking too much but am eating less junk and getting more exercise. How is … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host is doing no better in some areas, but is getting more exercise and fresh air thanks to it being the best month of the year. I wish it could be May for at least 5 months … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
Did really poorly over the weekend, but not too bad the last couple days. Walking home from work helps. How is everyone else doing with their habits/challenges? It’s a new month, who is celebrating a milestone, or picking up a … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host got semi-decent bloodwork back but still needs to cut down on the booze and takeout. Good thing it’s the busiest time of the year at work! What do other people do for stress relief that’s healthier … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host needs to improve her liver enzymes posthaste. My doc told me they weren’t in the danger zone (Archer.gif) by any stretch, but they were significantly elevated compared to the last test. So… that’s not good. In … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
In which your host lost track of what day it is. How is everybody doing? Continue reading Breaking the Habit

Well, we’ve passed St. Patrick’s Day. Lent will be over pretty soon. Any other challenges (of either type) coming up for anyone? What did you succeed at this week? What needs more work? Also, is this thread still helpful to … Continue reading Breaking the Habit
Writing this at 3:30 a.m. – one of the habits I need to break is not going to bed at a decent hour. Tell us how you’re doing! Continue reading Breaking the Habit
