If I've learned anything, Dan, it's that alcohol doesn't manufacture fun - thats a big stupid old lie fed to us by TV movies, our drinking buiddies and our own fears about change.

Alcohol doesn't manufacture fun - I do.
There's hundreds of people here living fun filled lives sober, Dan.

If you're not having fun when you're not drinking, I think you have to look to yourself to see why that is, bro.

I'm not beating up on you - I was right where you are for 20 years...but I think you deserve more from your life than what you're giving yourself right now, D.

Dee, If i had to say, the most prolific thing you said, it would be

" If you're not having fun when you're not drinking, I think you have to look to yourself to see why that is, bro."

I think that could be said about a lot of people.

I'm really sorry about any discomforts you might be havin, looking at your profile, i'd say you'd be doin well, i could learn a few things from you i'm sure.. dan

Vitamins and things like that aren't the only things that will do that. I take Methoquine once a week to prevent Malaria and especially the first night it can give you some crazy dreams. Some people refuse to take it because of them and stick with doxycycliene (I don't know exactly how to spell it) because it doesn't do that. It dosen't really supprise me to learn that herbal supliments do the same as sugar bear said they arent really regulated by anyone. Hence the astrick on everyone saying *these claims are not endorsed by the FDA or something to that effect.

Yeah it could - it was said to me too - it doesn't mean we still can't learn from it and apply it to ourselves tho

Thanks for the concern too - I'm battling on - not dead yet

I'm really hoping you decide to get well. I know it's hard. Lots of people have made it through - you could be one of them.
