Title: Wahooooooo!
Post by gobby on Jan 19th, 2006, 2:27am
Well let me start by saying I hadn't had a beer or any alchohol for that matter in 9 weeks (huge trigger).  Anyway the other night I got fed up with just about everything, bought some beer and grabbed my trex.  And guess what.........NOTHING!!!  I havn't had a hit since!! (3 days ago)  I'm not saying I think the beer cured me.  I was comming to the end of my cycle anyway, but I'm just so extatic that I've had 3 pf days that I had to rant to someone!!  I'm not counting my chickens quite yet because I know how sneaky the beast can be.  I'm just sooooooooooooo thankful for the wonderful, beautiful, fantastic pf time I've had.

I want to thank you ALL for being around these last few months, for giving your support, and giving me something to read at 2am.  I really hope this is it for now!

Glad to hear you're getting a break.  Just don't push it on the alcohol - don't want to tempt the nightmare too early and rejuvinate em'.

Well that's a result Gobby.

Just that you guys have a strange definition of 'beer'.  

Budweisser in my humble opinion has more in common with water, shandy and low or non alcohol beers so even where alcohol is a trigger (It's fortunately not for me) you're probably OK with a Bud.

Whereas it's a matter of record that Guinness is good for you!

I do not consider myself a drinker, but I do enjoy tipping a few around the hoidays with my family and friends.  Unfortunately, over the last twelve years, alls that it has done has launched my winter cycle and then I get to sit back and wrythe in agony while everyone else gets chummy and has a great time for the next twelve weeks.   By the time my cycle breaks, the parties over.
