    The situation I find myself in.

    Well, there is hope I know. So long as I make the superhuman effort. I pray God gives me the desire and the strength to make it happen.

    I'm not sure what really happened. I was managing to just tie one on during the weekend and was content with that. Then, some really unexpected negatives happened in my life and I turned to Dr. Alcohol who makes all problems disappear until you have to sober up. But seriously, this last binge has been a doozy. I am now just now putting on the brakes and trying to look at what my life has become, again...

    My back starts spassing out when I stop. Maybe one reason I don't want to. But, as I read from someones personal experience, this is nerve endings and perhaps muscle either damaged or dying. I know I can not afford to be physically disabled for life from this.

    Also, during my last trip to my PCP, he mentioned my Liver enzymes were high. I glanced at the report and recall the AST or ALT being 160. Is that really high? So, it appears my ole' friend Hepatitis may be back.

    Just trying to take it slow as I know I'm not totally in my right mind at the moment.

    And, hello to everyone.

      Hang in there mate - PM me at any stage, if you wish! Sometimes it is just about riding it out, no matter WHAT! The rough times pass - just stay well clear of the first all-damning drink x x

        hi grog,been seeing the doc of late,one thing at a time he said,1st the knee then the spine,its not promising but i can only hope for the best,ive drank for years and all the tests ive had they never said anything was wrong,so far,but why persist on doing things that WILL hurt you in the end,as far as drinking,it is a relaxant,until you do to much,just a thot for you,when i was in treatment,one of the last films we watched was a bout Al and comparing it with anesthetic,or drugs,if an anesthesiologist gives you to much of the drug he puts you under you could die,the second part was a doctor showing us,a bottle of cough medicine,he put a couple of ounces in a glass,2 ice cubes, and the mix, then an umbrella for looks and said drink up.better drink,higher percent,60 percent.made me think how bout you gyco

            Groggy, It seems impossible, but it isn't. Gain strength by reading some of the stories here in the Tell Us Your Story section in OF SPECIAL INTEREST. There are some amazing stories and determination there! Never give up!

            Dont forget, you can: start late, start over, be unsure, try and fail AND STILL SUCCEED!

            If it is important to you, you will find a way. If not, you will find an excuse.

              i HAVE BEEN SPEAKING WITH YOU PERSONALLY AND I PUBLICLY OFFER YOU MY SUPPORT. YOU ARE NOT AS FAR GONE AS YOU THINK AND LIKE ME - YOU WILL GET BETTER, I GUESS IT IS ABOUT FINDING THAT KEY TO UNLOCK THE MYSTERY OF WHY WE DO THIS TO OURSELVES. TO ME IT IS AS BAD AS US CUTTING OURSELVES WITH KNIVES, WE KNOW WE SHOULDN'T AND YET WE DO. IT IS NON SENSICAL, TOTALLY MAD AND I HATE IT. HANG IN THERE AND I HAVE FAITH IN YOU....:h

                Thanks everyone, especially you Maddiva!
                I don't really have a plan... I have a "semblance" of a plan...but it's not really concrete. I do have an awesome person to talk to ( you know who you are! ) and that was my step 1. I will be there for this person and they for me ( God willing ). We do help one another, but suggestions are welcome. I've done it before...

                thanks again.
