hello to anyone who is out there.
the only conversations i have are with myself.
the wind keeps me inside from the scorching heat & the dry dust bowl this place has become.
in my core, i feel that same hurt & pain i can remember frequently. like i'm invisible.
i've had a cup of coffee - it was tasteless. my fridge is full of fantastic foodie treats but i am un-inspired to create them.
my black hole is back.
sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry
this may be my last post guys as i truly struggle to keep connected with you all. i thank you for being really kind to me & will have you know i write this completely sober.

That's a relief to hear.
It must be very difficult to endure that sort of physical isolation, as well as the other sorts of isolation we feel as addicts.

Now , jumping back a bit.
Missy.
I am starting today yep.
Have taken first two doses of 10mg.
No wucken furries.

Re doctor....tricky one.
I am going it alone for a couple of reasons.
Although I am well aware that I am a screaming alky, I'm just not ready to admit it to a stranger, unless I absolutely have to.
Also, and mainly, I don't want to have it on my medical records. The way privacy and information sharing is dealt with in this country is unacceptable to me. Not to mention the fact that legislation changes all the time could mean that what is confidential now, may not be in a few years time. I can't take that risk.

I am not anti seeking help. Just pro privacy in a big way.

Did anyone else watch the rescue and be reminded of Mr Squiggle's Rocket Ship? I kept waiting for Blackboard to appear and start complaining "Hurry Up! Hurry Up."

Beagle, when are you heading my way...?

Bridge ...... know exactly where you are coming from.

Was refused medical insurance when I was 25 for a pre-existing medical condition (endometriosis) ..... not just refused treatment for that, but all cover. I feel triple-ly and quadrupe-ly pissed off at that now as it stopped my having access to IVF treatment ...... and having 15 kids was my life's ambition :H

When we got business health insurance 2 years ago (in case either of us got run over by a bus), my business partner and I both had permanent exclusions put on. Mine for any mental health issues. Hers for a back problem. It totally sucks.

My GP is very good at being careful at what goes onto my medical records ..... but as the private insurance market takes over, it becomes much more difficult for Drs to protect patient confidentiality. And I look at what it has taken to ensure access to good health care in the US and I shudder to think about it happening here.

Interesting case here last year where a cyclist on his way home from work was killed by a drunk driver. His life insurance was nullified because he had a knee cartilage problem that he had forgotten to disclose. It only got paid out after a public outcry.

I've still chosen to do the Antabuse route through the GP. Has been one of the reasons why I have been reluctant to go down that path. But I'm just getting a bit tougher on myself, and getting to the point where I am willing to pay a higher price if ya know what I mean.
