Life My Struggles - Alcohol - and my plan. - Page 21

Guys,

I have to confess, I'm a huge alcoholic and always have been, I've been sober in increments of 5 years and one other time for ten years. I recently reflected on how much I have been/was consuming. I'm completely through this time. I just can't do it anymore. I'll be honest - after this last time, I'm lucky to even be here right now.

I love you guys and promise to each of you, this is the new beginning to my life and I'm completely done with drinking.

Thanks for the ear. If anyone else is struggling. Please feel free to chime in if you wish.

Thanks for being my friend you guys

I'm perplexed why is it so hard not to want to drink sometimes?

Mr. Simply Red is busy with many exciting endeavors, but I saw your inquiry and spoke with him moments ago.

He's doing well, and says "thank you" for asking.

Alcohol is part of my life: I drink a Martini or wine with dinner and sometimes an after dinner drink but I don't get drunk; I like to drink beers with the guys after golf; I'll drink 3-4 Oban's or Macallan while smoking 2 cigars over the course of 2-3 hours.

I don't just drink alcohol on it's own just to get drunk or a buzz and I haven't gone to a nightclub in 15-20 years where you do only drink. Those days are over.....

I took my final pain pill 12/13 and went the next day to drop off the rest of them at the local police station (there's a drop box specifically for narcotics).

Fuck, man, opioid withdrawal sucks.. I'm no longer nauseous or having diarrhea, but at what point does the muscle/joint pain cease? When I've googled opioid withdrawal it says 5-7 days. I'm on day 13 and it hasn't relented at all

Sending you good vibes and lots of love, brother.

And just remember - our defense hasn’t given up more than 3pts in a game since 12/13. If that’s possible, virtually anything is.

You can do it!

Are you saying that if I stay off this shit we're winning the Superbowl?!?!?!? I see an obvious connection between the two.

Thanks bro. Now if you'd also send that MVP jacket... :-)

I've been down this road - twice.
