Hi everbody. Yes I'm still here, sorta.
And yes Amanda I did read what you were saying.
Rehab did'nt work out, but I did de-tox before x-mas. I think I told
you's. Anyway 2 cut through the cheese I lasted a month n' 2 days.
The pressure and the crave, and the lack of Valium got me!
Frankly.... You Get That.
The rehab wanted to take X amount from my pension, for their bit.
But after I worked it out, I would only have just enough to pay my
mortage n' a pack of smokes a f/nite..! If I was on Social Security and
did'nt have a home loan, I'd probably be right (idiot government, but
at least I have a pension). But i've cut my drinking in half...TRUE.
My memory loss has'nt got any worse (I think). I'm pump'n 200mg of
Thiamine into me a day, for about a year now, (I would'nt be here typ'n
if not 4 that...I KNOW).
And I've been reading the postings when I remember.
And it sounds like I'm definatly not the worst case. At least I've
come to grips with my burnt out brain, (there's still some spark in
there).
Keep writing please, I can relate to all, and it helps me also.
All the Guys n' Girls out there caring for your loved one's......
well there's not enough money for thanks.
Take it easy. Keep a cool head.
Regards
John Gaghan
