I would always give up around 4 - 6 weeks. and you mentioned to me that around the 3 month mark, things would start to change. You were right. About 10 plus weeks, I just felt a real "shift" in the way I was feeling; I had more inner enjoyment and peace, instead of such a constant struggle. I really want to experience what future months will bring to me.

Thank you SnazzyDresser. I have been a life long drinker I have never known anything different. My parents use to give me warmed up wine in a cup to make me sleep when I was sick when I was a little girl, and there was my first taste of it.

I feel so strongly now to experience something different. We are never to old to change.

Ahh, and coffee. Homemade, coffee houses, restaurants, any place that serves coffee. Coffee with cream is my delicacy.

It's a great movie, really a modern classic imo. I've heard the graphic novel it's based on is also great.
