No gripes or complaints here. Just kidding, I'm bored in that I don't feel like I have things to look forward to. I'm almost 50. Divorced. Live alone. No bf or friends. Total loner. Which I usually prefer. I love my me time but just seems like I am missing out. Go to work. Come home. Eat watch tv and sleep.

I feel ya hun!
Although my eating is much worse than my drinking. My everything is pretty unmanageable.

With many of us and myself included I want instant gratification when it comes to things changing in my life. I know that is not the case and will never be. I have to work and restoring my family and rebuild myself. Just saying though being instantly gratified would be awesome

Close to 48 hours off the booze and finally slept for about two hours, though bad sleep with nightmares. Still feel like crap and pretty much stuck in bed. Just been binge reading this forum.

Obviously on a personal level help if we can but in general terms normal alcohol usage in society at large is too big for us to think we can change things .

Oh yes this. In the days I used to go pick up my wine and chat with the clerk, there was frequently an attractive girl or guy offering alcohol samples from a pretty festooned table. "like to try some" they'd purr. Ah, no. I don't fancy getting lit before I get into my car. "Oh we won't let THAT happen." Perhaps not, but I could like your sample, buy it, and drink it in my car because I have no impulse control and there is no cork in this. Sheesh!
