BABM, you’ve lived through hell while on the booze. A bit of hell while ‘un-pickling’ is to be expected.

Hang in there, continue to do the next right thing.
What other viable options have we?

I have no other options. Going backward isn't an option. It's just that daily life is becoming SO HARD to live.

Talked to my old sponsor and he described a good analogy to me.

It's like when you have a bucket full of dirty water and you add a hose with clean water to it. As clean water is added to the dirty bucket all the dirt is kicked up and the water becomes dirty and cloudy. You have to keep adding clean water to lift the dirt out. As time passes the water becomes clearer and clearer but there will always be some dirt left behind.

I have spent 20 years dirtying my water. I now have the clean hose in it and a lot of dirt is being kicked up. It will take a while for the water to clear up.

Yeah, I read all of your posts too and I'm always like, "Yep". I get it, I 100% get it. Thanks AR.

Doc thinks it's my gallbladder. I used my internet medical degree (Google) and did some medical research (typed in gallbladder), consulted with some experts (clicked on some links) and concluded (freaking hoped) that she might be right. Going to do some tests.

LOL! This actually gave me a good laugh.
