Post Thanks Rudder

Hi rudder - thanks so much for your reply. About the liver damage, I know that I should have a liver test done, but I guess I don't want to know it if I've damaged myself. Ignorance is bliss. And no, I didn't take the Vics or Percs for pain. I feel so guilty when I see posts from people who have legitimate physical pain to grapple with on top of an addiction! No, I just took them because I'm dumb and they were (and unfortunately, still are) available.
But I wanted to ask you about your experiences when you stopped drinking. What was that like? I'm not going to even try 'closet drinking' when I live with bf because I don't need any more secrets in my life. He's not much of a drinker - at most two beers at a resteraunt. So I'm going to stop, but I'm so afraid that I'll be impossible socially and that I won't ever have fun, or laugh or look forward to anything. Was that your experience? Are you happy/comfortable now?

Hi Sylvia-

Unfortunately I have to run out for the night to take the kids to hockey & do my nightly kid stuff.

If you would check back on this post in the AM, I will give you the poop on what I did & how it was, along with how it works for me today.

Have a good night & I’ll chat w/ you in the AM

Best regards,
Rudder
