To all those, in and out of the army, who posted on my thread. Your comments were fab and clearly helped a lot of people including me

Having battled this battle for long enough, I had to something about it, either accept and deal with it, forget the whole thing ever existed and have a drink, or go to the doctor and get numbed for another 6 months on citalopram.

I was getting there by myself but then a conversation with one of the army on Sunday night finally pushed a button somewhere which said, you know you have a problem, just admit it then you can work on getting things back on track. And she also said you will feel a huge weight lifting off your shoulders...

So, on the back of that chat, and on reading all the other things and lots of thinking, I decided 2 things. I am not sure which came first...

Firstly to change my signature on here and finally own up to what's been screwing me over for so long
Secondly to fill the void with something creative, so yesterday I went out and hired a cello and I am going to teach myself to play

There's a lot of work left to do but man at least I made a start

Thx for reading

Pingu, I am so pleased for you, you have made great strides. There is so much more out there than drinking, so much more to life, so glad you are finding that out for yourself.

Thank you

oh yeah love Bach's cello music, in fact most of his music

thing is I only got the monster on Monday and I can about bash through some grade 1 stuff so I think it's a while before I attack Bach.. sadly...

Thank you

Right on! The time and concentration it should take to learn such an instrument will surely help fill the void.

And short of goin way too fast around a racetrack on two wheels, not much is as cool as literally "making" music.

You made a wise choice :goodjob:
