Thanks Anna and Carl
The long term prognosis is good. The mental cravings are not their and I have put my sober time to good use - creating new living frameworks and targets. A slip yes but relative to where Ive been Im well ahead of my own game. Abstinence remains my goal - I dont have mental hurdles currently, just a load of stuff that a sober world has already allowed me to set out on the table. For example I have today been able to pay for my garden to be cleared ahead of summer - Ive booked and set up monthly installments for 2 weeks in the sun in October. Ive also begun a committment to a long term savings plan ( my long term will now be extended somewhat).
Ive read a lot , my mind is sharper and my eyes look like they are from earth.
If these things can happen in the short term then I look forward to the future.
Thank you for your early replies .
Regards
