Thank, WIP, for bring up the longer term picture. The picture you described hasn't appeared that clear to me from stories here. But your conclusion may well be correct. You also have professional experience in this field, which most of us here don't have.
I think most moderators here use meds and/or supplements, which I don't want to do for the rest of my life. A few months ago I started the Long Term Moderation Contest here. The "winning" moderator had gone seven months without increasing nor using meds nor supplements. Some replies I felt were guarded. I guess my goal at the moment would be to win that contest. Only time will tell. I ask myself every day, Is drinking really that great? (to risk going back where I was). My consumption level was similar, but a little less, than HelpWanted.
