    How big is the habit?
    How often do you drink pop?
    Sugar? Sugar free? Caffeine?

    I was drinking six cans of Diet Dr Pepper a day, now I am going cold turkey because diet sodas increase insulin production and fat retention in the body.
    I seriously am tempted to go to the store to buy a case of hard cider. This is more intense than usual.

    I am going to Starbucks and buying a mocha instead.

    That's great. Often a caffeine hit will get me back on line. Vitamin D really helped with my depressive episodes. Are you getting this Vitamin?

    Get some Martinellis instead. Zero alcohol and similar flavor.
    After several hours of sleep, now I want to drink something strong. Good thing the bars are closed nearby.
    The unknown abyss seems welcoming to me. I will think about it. For now, I will take some NyQuil and knock myself out.

    The unknown abyss only seems welcoming, but we do not know that is true.

    It sounds like you are mostly interested in sleeping right now, not actually dying. Booze helps with sleeping, yes, but you have (wisely) removed that option for yourself. But maybe you can just put your focus on sleeping and things that make you very tired so you can get there and get lots and lots of sleep right now.

    Sleep is a great relief from hardship. It is a useful goal to focus on. Focus on sleep instead of death.

    Rodafina has great advice! I always look forward to January.
    I need my autonomy, and I need to not be around people who ridicule me for taking my own autonomy seriously. I do not need to be around people who throw me under the bus on a regular basis. I do not need to be around people who designate my role as the family retard.

    Sounds like their classic lack of understanding over some basic tenets of autism.

    Yeah, you don't need that. None of us do.
    The only time I feel even remotely content these days is when I am sleeping and in the world of dreams.
    Music videos on YouTube is a rabbit hole for me. Especially now that YouTube realizes I love ‘80s and ‘90s music.
    So a friend got me Titanic on 4K for Christmas. I should have a double feature of that and The Sixth Sense, because “icy dead people”.

    Some jokes work, but that one went straight to the bottom.

    That was so bad, l needed a life jacket.
    I am a junkie for my smartphone and for social media. I need to cut that crap out of my life. It is a waste of time.

    Study the security implications of using cellphones and you may never do so again. ;)

    Fry those social media apps right away, I'd say. Though, also maybe consider putting on one of those apps that's entirely about helping you manage your screen time and whatnot? Though I dont know if iPhones have something like that, if that's what you have.
