Robbie, glad you stopped drinking snd are back with us today. It’s hard to stop that train from rolling, so you did that. I’m right there with you with bad liver numbers. This is life and death stuff here.
Day 24 here for me. In the past, I didn’t count days. It was too depressing for me if I slipped or relapsed. I recognize now, that for me, that was my lizard brain or AV giving me permission to drink, if only a little, or two at a restaurant, on vacation, etc... It escalates eventually. So, I’m counting my days now.
It’s very helpful to me right now that we can’t socialize much. We have had a couple of zoom happy hours. I was invited to one last week, but was too sick with the flu. My plan is to enjoy my San Pellegrino in a fancy glass next time. If asked, I’ll just say I’m focused on my health after the holidays. The group is too into drinking, that it would be awkward to get into it in a zoom meeting.
