Recovery The 2023 alcohol support thread v. Ramifications of the shovel

[Jabberwocky]

It's a new year and resolutions have already failed, but we persevere. Hope remains.

What are you doing differently this year? Are you holding up?

trying to imbue each day with mindfulness, as much buddhism as possible. eating iboga rootbark when i can, doing things that make me happy and benefit the world. BASSE!
holding up better than i have in almost a decade.

This is why I don't make New Years' resolutions. No guilt about not holding up my end of the deal.

What are you doing differently this year? Are you holding up?

Just trying to stay sane and on an evenish keel.
So far its iffy at best as it is new territory for me but got all year to work on it, no?
It aint over til its over.

Well it's been sometime between drinks for me.. After spending the best part of last year in hospital and in care due to severe liver damage/failure.. Never think it won't happen to you! It has been a massive life change, extremely low salt diet is hard work but the worst of it was the shut down of other organs and loosing 60% of my mobility.... It's still early in the picture so to speak and I'm not out of the woods yet, a transplant is talked about but the odds aren't that good..
Take care everyone.
