Feren I have started remembering things I had forgotten about myself before I started drinking. As far as memories of things I did while drinking I probably never actually made them in the first place.

The fog will start to clear. This is just my thinking but I think it is critical to challenge your mind while in the fog. Learn anything you can new.
