Excepting childhood, what is the longest that you have been completely sober? No booze, dope,

[ohiosmith]

or meds.

Me: 1971 to 1975.

[Fire Walk With Me]

1. Longest time during which I didn't adjust my package? I'm not sure.

[redqueen]

2. No meds?

Seriously? Not even painkillers? For four years?

[ohiosmith]

3. Yep.

[The Straight Story]

4. 1984-2004

Graduated/GED in 2004 and didn't drink until about the time mom died (drank once in 1984).

[LeftyMom]

9. I can go years at a stretch without drinking, and I don't do any of the rest.

But I don't really keep track. :shrug:

[Auggie]

10. Maybe a month

[ghostsofgiants]

11. When do you consider childhood as having ended, and what does the category "meds" include?

If meds includes Tylenol and things of the sort, I have no idea. But I've never been high or drunk.

[ohiosmith]

22. End of childhood: The beginning of puberty. Rx painkillers, speed, etc.

[ghostsofgiants]

23. Okay, then I am around 10 or 11 years and counting.

[trof]

12. About 20 hours every day.

[mcctatas]

14. Let's see...

April of 2002 to May of 2003 (birth of the but tucher and follow up mothering)

[Throd]

[taterguy]

16. Longest five minutes of my life

:scared:

[ohiosmith]

24. :

:rofl:

[trackfan]

17. Probably about a month on a couple of occasions in my 20s.

In the last 20 years, I might have been on the wagon for a week or two, once or twice, due to illness.

[Forkboy]

18. I've had lots of stretches where I was sober, some lasting years.

I barely drank a thing from '94 to 2002. Then I drank a bunch until this past summer, and now I don't drink once again.

No weed is tougher. I do believe there was a stretch in my 20's where I went a year or so without it for some stupid reason. Whatever that reason was, it's been corrected.

As for meds, I'm on some now (I'll die without one of them, and without the other two the rest of you will die :evilgrin: ), but until a few years ago I hated to even take aspirin.

[matcom]

19. 9 am - 4:30 pm

every weekday :cry:

[bamacrat]

26. Mine is 10am to 7pm weekdays, but even then Im in a haze.

Purple that is.

[RetroLounge]

20. June 1, 1990 to the present moment.

18.5 years...

:hi:

RL

[Rabrrrrrr]

25. Probably about 2 weeks.

But much of the drinking outside that was not getting drunk; it was just having a beer or a cocktail or two or a glass of wine.

[grannylib]

27. Do prenatal vitamins count as meds? Probably when I was pregnant

would be the longest...I'm not a huge drinker anyway...

[old mark]

28. March , 1988 till now. nt

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

29. Why I just

celebrated being 5 years old November 30th :party: For a person like me, sober is better!

[RazBerryBeret]

30. pregnant followed by nursing...

1 year, 3 months.

[Shell Beau]

31. Well, I just got through being pregnant so that is the obvious answer.

I did have some meds though. No fun ones. Anti-puking ones. Although phenergan is great for sleeping, not so great for not puking. Zofran worked a little for that. Expensive as hell.
