Thanks Tatsy and no not intrusive at all.
I have been to AA but never took to it so I guess I can go to page 29!
I never did get my detox although I was truly convinced that was the only way forward, so against all medical advice I just stopped.
I didn't get withdrawals in the form of shaking, sickness etc but I am ridiculously tired, ridiculously hungry, have brain fog and the beast is calling frequently, more so tonight than in the last 10 days.
