I'm very spiritual, write both stories and poetry, paint, sew, crochet, make stained glass, garden, design and build houses, play piano, dulcimer, ......you see why I believe the connection. Mundane things bore me to tears, but many people feel comfort in the routine. I think many who turn to AL cannot stand routine.

Yep, it snowballs and becomes a vicious circle...

Get drunk to feel better = anxious/depressed the next day = drink to feel better again..

Then comes chemical and psychological addiction.. lack of self esteem, more anxiety/depression and getting so caught up in your own head that you aren't really living life anymore..

Well. that's my story anyway and the reason I'm fighting like a Bastard to knock it on the head...

Vlad, I'd love to get hold of a balalaika and have a go...

I've played Sitar before, it was awesome (if not somewhat difficult)

Ruby, since trying to stop drinking, boredom is my biggest Foe..

I am single and live alone, I do have lots of very good mates but they are all coupled/babied up. so I'm in a different world..

You need to FORCE yourself to do new things/meet new people to get your/my life back..

It's really Fecking hard, until you actually have a go and then you think "I shouldn't have been such a Wuss and done this years ago"

We need to do things we are scared or (but know are positive) in order to get anywhere..

It's the excact opposite of staying home and getting drunk...

I'm 6 foot one as well...

You are 'bout 5 foot from memory?

I'm not flirting (Maybe just a wee bit) But my tallest ever girlfriend was 5 foot, 6 inches..

For some reason Tall Blokes like wee girls and vica verca ...

I think it's the "You're so petite and girlie" and "You're so big and Manly" thing?

I'm rambling now...lol
