Tm,
I always remember I am an addict for life. 1 year, 5 years, 10 years clean. Still I am going to want the buzz.
I search out buzz options. What gets me high besides booze and other mind altering substances?
I use coffee, green tea, moringa, exercise, good healthy food, and good deeds. Also things like little projects help as well.
They all get me high and satisfy that crave.
Getting up now to gets some coffee.
Please post about how things are going with your new daughter. No matter what happens, i believe she will still be close to you forever.
I stopped drinking and suffered hell on earth for long long time. Never going back. It hurt too much. Don't need that poison in my life.
I figure you were honest when challenged about your drinking style by child services. If folks knew how I raised my kid from an infant until 12 years old, I would have lost him to the system.
I couldn't quit for him though. I quit for me. That was the only way. It hurts too much.
I ate when I craved. Now is not the time to go on a diet.
Thanks.
