Thank you tiptronic_ct
The welcome has been unbelievable.
I just had a magnificent breakfast, but got a nasty text from Helen. Had a massive cup of tea with a major slug of whisky in it. Hated myself for doing it, but don't feel quite so anxious and messed up now. Although I know that I am just the same. Just numbed.
I gona read the Amiesen book again today. I've read contradictory stuff about it, but I have an open mind. It resonated with me when I first read it. It seemed a bit light on side effects.
I'm an eternal optimist.
Any help with advice and other web places to go will be very gratefully received.

Hello Tut
I've just started on baclofen.
Best of luck.
I'm having a lot of side effects, but they are getting less. Just stick with it.
I was advised by a couple of MWO members to go to baclofen4alcoholism.com. Both me and my son got a lot of help there. If you are having any problems once you start, I would go to the side effects threads on MWO and to that site.
A daily diary would be great. I haven't done it because I didn't think anyone would read it. But I will read yours!

Good on ya Tut, I will be reading this anyhow! Like Oney said earlier, a bit of 'black' humour about our disease is actually great to me. To anyone who hasn't got a drink problem it prob can be a bit alarming!! But also like MissB says, don't be afraid to open up if you are feeling down or crappy, everyone here understands the good days and the bad days.
My daughter is an archaeologist - she has a hoody with 'my career is in ruins' on the back of it - love that!
IF you have the strength - loose the whiskey, you won't be content till its finished if you are anything like me? Down the drain.
Looking forward to watching your trip down sobriety lane!!

Gosh, I had no idea that so many great people are out there.
I'm about half way through the Ameisen book again.
I've also ordered some baclofen over the internet. My doctor wouldn't even consider it.
I have been looking at the bottle of whisky and, to be honest, it's staring right back at me.
I want to throw it out, but it has all the affectations of a naughty kid begging me not to tell it off. Big doe eyes and a cute smile.
I can barely bring myself to throw it out.
Argh!!

Pretend someone you don't like pee'd into it then close your eyes and pour (down the sink I mean!)

I don't have to pretend.
I'm sure that I've drunk that kind of thing before. Many times, probably!!
Anyway, I took a big deep breath, and threw half of it down the sink.
Sorry, but it was a significant amount of drinking vouchers, and I couldn't quite do it all.

Good God, what's that IAD? When did you sneak into my bedroom?
I thought that it was only Helen that had photos of me like that.
But you have to say that I do look rather splendid.
I've ordered my baclofen. How long does it take to come? A week or two, probably?
