    Hail fellow well met

    Hello, all. Not sure if anyone remembers me, I posted here occasionally, perhaps a month ago? Two? Seems a while ago. MWO kind of slipped through the cracks - half intentionally, half not. I recall there being a debate (rather lame, not heated, probably not even a debate so much as an exchange) as to whether posts should be personal (juicy) or political (bac-strict) and thinking to myself, you know what, I'm going to step out of this room for a minute. I've got enough on my mind.

    Anyway, I'm still here. Not dead. Not dead drunk. But still a drunk, you know. I had to go down to 20 mg per day for my job's sake. it was an absolute. I have been at that level for at least a month (got as high as 140 or 160, i think, and felt some magic, but also was unble to function).

    I DO note that when I forget to take my doses for 2-3 days, i have MASSIVE panic attacks. But that's cool, whatever. I bought a pill box. It's not sexy, but it helps. I think I'm going to try and go up again. Today was my last day at work in the office. I'm moving to NYC and my boss is letting me work remotely. No rules. No schedule. No self-discipline. I'm frightened.

    Anyway. Hey all, what's up.

          It was "not a rash" IIRC

                That was not in mean spirit at all??? She was very open with us and all was okay. I am so sorry GS, ... I am sitting here like a country bumpkin saying 'what'...so sorry!

                        lushie, i think he was joking w the emoticons, referencing your admonishing me that one time which i quickly understood and got over, but mostly referencing your calling it a rash. i guess it was iirc, or that's some acronym (or is it acronim?) that i don't know yet that would also clarify. pete...?

                          IIRC = If I Recall Correctly.

                          IIRC, GS insisted that it wasn't a rash, but something else. But then again, I could be thinking of something else entirely.

                          And LL, I was just joking with you :l

                            It's all okay silly. And where did GS go? She is brilliant!

                              Hi GS

                              Hope you can reach the switch this time. I'm self employed and business was extreamly slow whilke I was titrating up but I remember thinking "how the heck could anyone do this if they have to appear bright and perky everyday on time?"

                              I also remember reading about the non-rash but was either too late for the pics or didn't have the required tecnological ability to open them! Hope you're good now.
                              Started Baclofen 3/9/10 Hit my switch at 250mg on 21/11/10 Present maintenance dose of 50mg : started drinking after 1 year, upped dose to 80mg and stopped: Tapered to 30mg, started 6 months of drinking, upped dose to 240mg to stop 12/7/12
