That is because it is a disgusting substance. Sensible people see that. You sound chirpy!

Good to see its not all doom and gloom tonight. Your username reminds me of the diet coke ads. They were my favourite ads. Unfortunately it was not my favourite drink which is how I ended up here.

Acouple of months. Not very long but I feel strong. I got to the root cause of my drinking and sorted it out.

That's great news Dietcoke, thanks for letting us know. I'm glad you are getting some help for your other underlying issues too - and I'm sure being sober is helping with those as well.
