Indifference.
Hi there!
It recently occurred to me that I had just dropped out of sight without saying a word. At the time, I hadn't meant to stop posting, so didn't think to say anything special. One thing led to another, and suddenly ages had gone by, so apologies for just disappearing without a word. I made some really good friends here, so at the very least I should have explained myself.
For various personal reasons I took a break, and this break made me realise how much time I was spending posting and reading. At the time I didn't intend it for the break to be so long! That said though, it's been very refreshing not being tied to MWO, so I don't think I'll ever return to the level of posting I was at previously, and recent developments at work and at home mean I just don't have that sort of time available anyway.
One of the reasons that I became reluctant to post is this - despite baclofen transforming my life completely, we still don't really have a clue how to do it. Based on my experience, I was advising people to go up quickly, and they were struggling, and it's hard not to feel responsible when someone tells you they have had the worst night of their life as a result of your well-intentioned advice. Saying that, however, if you are reading this and wondering whether or not to try baclofen, do it now. It has the power to change your life, and it does it while you aren't even looking.
So without further ado, a brief update for those that are interested...
All is well in Bleepdom. Moderation turned out to be too much effort, so a while ago I decided to stop drinking, and that was that. Baclofen makes that choice an easy one. More than that though, it actually means it's not even really a big decision. A year ago, the thought of giving up booze would have been like giving up a part of myself - now it is easy to see it as a net gain, rather than a loss. It's amazing how baclofen has caused a shift in my mindset regarding booze. That's where the magic is, imo.
I'm now using liquid baclofen. Those who have followed my story will know that 300mg's a month in Zim costs about $500. Various plans and schemes meant, with the valuable help of some members here, I was able to reduce this to about $250. With the liquid, I have reduced it further still, and it's now cheap. I just need to regularise my supply lines, and I'm all set. At last. It has been a nightmare sorting this out, so I'm glad that looks to be a thing of the past.
Let me stop here, this post is rapidly becoming far too long! Time to see how everyone is doing...
