Question 2

how to sober up quickly?

Accepted Answer

No shortcut: Body burns off about 20 gm of alcohol per hour and there is no safe way to make it go faster.
Alcohol is a poison that never did anybody any good, ever, so stay away from it.
Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.

Question 3

feeling high when sober for 8 hours. why?

Accepted Answer

I'm glad: No disrespect is intended. The very fact that you have posed the question tells me that you've discovered something -- that you don't need alcohol to be happy. Perhaps you've reached a point in your life -- which i suspect has not been an easy or a fair one -- in which you have discovered that the world is still a beautiful place with much to offer that you don't need alcohol to enjoy. Cherish it.

Question 4

wat s d perfect diet fr reducing weight sooner ?

Accepted Answer

No such thing: There is no such thing as "the perfect diet". The first person to come up with that will sell to all 7 billion people and be filthy rich.

Question 5

what happens if you were born postmature, will you die sooner?

Accepted Answer

Postterm Delivery: Having been born post-term does not mean that you will die at a younger age.

Question 6

what physical consequences should i expect during the first 15 days of attempting to stay sober?

Accepted Answer

DTs: If you discontinue alcohol abruptly, you may go into so called "dts". This stands for delirium tremens - an acute, life threatening condition caused by abrupt cessation of alcohol intake. It is manifested by hallucinations, auditory (voices) and visual, combativeness, insomnia, psychomotor excitation, high risk of suicide and violence. People in this condition must be hospitalized.

Question 7

is it normal to not like one type of meeting in aa (speaker, big book, living sober, 12&12, etc.)?

Accepted Answer

Yes: You don't have to like everything in aa, just enough to keep you going back, focus on the positive, keep an open mind, and remain willing. Crazy thing about aa is if you stick with it, what you don't like now you may love in the future. But maybe not, plenty of meetings to choose from.

Question 8

39-year-old fm, i was a addict for 20 yrs of my life,  i have been clean and sober for 1.5 yrs feel great and healthy other than i can't concentrate ?

Accepted Answer

Kudos: on your sobriety! BUT IS THERE A QUESTION here?
If you are questioning the concentration problems this may be a "left over" from the addiction  years but can BE TREATED  .Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is avalable by many Psychologists trained in this method. Ask your PCP for a referral....

Hope this is helpful

Question 9

does coffee sober you up?

Accepted Answer

Not really: It may help counterbalance some of the dehydration and sedation effects but it does not get you close to normal.

Question 10

how to lose weight sooner?

Accepted Answer

Low carb diet: I've found a low carb (no starch or sugar) ketogenic diet containing about 60+ grams is protein and below 40 grams of carbohydrate along with mild exercise the most effective for weight, fat and girth loss. If you get in mild ketosis which is fat burning state your hunger level will be very little.
