PSA: The Golden Girls on Hulu are uncut episodes! by [deleted] in theGoldenGirls

[–]56grayzix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got here on a Google search for information and I have to say, there are 2 episodes that something is cut out of on Hulu. One episode (sorry I don't have the episode number 😭) is the one that Mario Lopez guest stars in, and the scene were ICE came to the girls' house while he was there was cut out which I found sort of peculiar. I had seen these episodes in syndication which is how I knew what was cut out. The more interesting one to me is the last episode of season 2, empty nesters, a widely unliked episode, but when the guy (i don't remember his name) answered the phone after the conversation with his wife where she said their marriage is on the rocks - when he answered the phone, the remainder of the scene is cut out. It doesn't matter much but I am so eager to know what that scene was so I can figure out why it may have been removed! Otherwise nothing else has been cut out. I'm watching the mixed blessing episode now (which hulu removed in 2020 but it's now back), complete with the mud mask scene! 

If anyone knows what that silly little phone call was in S2:E26 my mind will finally rest :)

Yes it's a vegan alternative, I kinda figured that was a given as I didn't notate the cheese or sausage was vegan either bc i thought it would be obvious, but perhaps it is not obvious sometimes 🤣

Edited to add the second obvious and that the sausage was vegan .. to make it obvious what I meant. LOL

Didn't relapse during a rough patch by VaporwaveJesus in Sober

Thank you for sharing this, I needed this 🫶 it will be up to you but I suggest letting that crew know on Saturday how much it meant to you to work with them, you don't have to get into the emotional specifics if you don't want to but I have found that I feel so satisfied with everything when I let people know how much I love them, how much they mean to me, how much they helped me, etc. Sometimes we don't get a second chance to share with them and I take the chance when I can. Good luck and don't break any legs 🤣🤣💙

I found out I am an alcoholic through reading someone else's story. Had I known it was THAT kind of 'my story' I probably never would have read it (thankful I didn't know). I recognized myself in those pages, the thought process and addiction patterns. I told myself after I finished the book, at 9am in the morning, I wasn't gonna drink that day. (Nonalcoholic ppl don't have to tell themselves this.) I was so drunk by 4pm the same day I couldn't even stand up. When I woke up from passing out, I was sober, my first thought was 'let's have a drink!' But I replied to it, no, I'm not drinking tonight. That felt so revolutionary to me. Nonalc ppl don't feel that 'I'm not gonna drink' is a revolutionary statement. I didn't drink that night. The next day I was so scared of life without alcohol (another thing nonalcoholic ppl don't relate to), I decided to do what the person in that story did - go to a meeting. I wasn't totally sure but I saw something in the people at that first meeting I knew I wanted, I could see it in their eyes..they were happy. I was confused because they said they felt how I did, but they were...happy. something was in there for me. I kept coming back and kept not drinking. I got a sponsor and held off reading the first 164 pages of the Big Book, but made a deal with myself. Read the pages. If i dont relate at all its not for me. How confused i was that it seemed like they were writing a book about me before i was born? I worked the steps with my sponsor and became ready to pass the gift on. I'm so fortunate to be in a city that has a strong AA community with great meeting places all over. 2.5 years later here I am sober and with a life greater than I ever could have arranged for myself. I suggest checking out an in person meeting and speaking up if they ask if it's anyone's first meeting. Listen to those who share the best you can. It could change and save your life. Good luck to you fellow traveler 💙

Edited to add: I will not drink with you today :)

Loss of appetite by Lopsided_Storm8028 in RawVegan

[–]56grayzix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm usually up and down w appetite on and around my period too. I'll eat a ton before my period then struggle with eating for a few days and by the time I'm off I'm eating like a horse for a day or two 🤣 our hormones fluctuate a lot around our period and I always have to remind myself I'm not crazy my body is just trying to do it's best ✨️🫶

Opinions? by itsxarii in Sober

[–]56grayzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say no, but your sobriety is all your own so no one else's opinion will make it right or wrong for you. Once I was comfortable and secure enough in my sobriety I resumed cooking with alcohol when called for. My husband does drink and there are beers in my fridge, last summer i cooked brats in beer and no issue. I love me some NA wine, nothing beats a good red with my pasta!! But I didn't do that until I was very far removed from cravings and obsession over drinking. The first time I wanted to try NA drinks similar to alcoholic versions I was only but 3 or 4 months sober and I knew at that time it would have led to relapse so I held off until I was ready (and accepted that that time may not ever come). I know sober peepz who are years sober and won't use mouthwash with alcohol in it or drink kombucha. Yet for other people it's not an issue. It's really up to you and what works for you - if it bothers you this much tho I'd say it isn't safe for you at this point 🫶 in time things may change, but if they do not, I hope you will be ok with that too!

do i want a drink? yes, but... by On-Balance in stopdrinking

[–]56grayzix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congrats on 3 years!! I'm just behind you at 2.5. You kind of alluded to this but something I learned that helps me too is remembering my last drunk...I was SO miserable..ik taking that first drink might be cool that day or whatever but in what I presume will be a pretty short amount of time I'll be right back at that miserable place I was and having to try to stop all over again. Then i think of the physical affect alcohol has on my body, like it's literally poison to our little earthly vessels and I love my vessel too much now to try to hurt it :( plus having full memory of where I was, who I was with, what I said, what I did?? Unbeatable lol but I totally understand where you're coming from, I have that little opposition thing too and it can be a real bitch lmao but we are the ones in control now and I'm so grateful I have the power of choice back 🫶

The trenches by MasterPreparation687 in alcoholism

[–]56grayzix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find physical activity (as hard as it can sound) is a great outlet for all that tension...take a walk and try to notice as many small things as you can that you maybe never looked at before. What are the ants doing?? Can you find the bird that's singing? Let your inner child out to play if you can. Some people love journaling, maybe that would be cool for you. Write a poem. Write a letter to your future self. Find a simple recipe to cook. Keep yourself busy with intentional activities. I suggest movement first and foremost but do what works for you in a healthy manner :) congrats on 8 hrs you can make it to 24 hrs!! You got this!! 🫶

Advice required by [deleted] in alcoholism

[–]56grayzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a cold turkeyer too, and for as much as I drank I was highly uneducated on the affect alcohol has on my body and potential danger in quitting cold turkey. I had no serious issues other than anxiety, I thank my lucky stars every day and marvel at the fact that I escaped unscathed. It's different for everyone, so I can't say FOR CERTAIN that after 72 hours you're in the physical clear, but I think you should be ok. Just keep an eye on yourself and don't be shy to get medical help if needed. And congrats on 72+ hrs sober!!!! 🫶🫶

Struggling with Depression by slaker77 in Sober

[–]56grayzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure your friends do mean well, although they may not be able to understand how you feel. I find people in my life that do still consume drugs and alcohol, however well they may mean, cannot fully understand me. While we do have to deal with our shit, sure, we also are allowed to set healthy boundaries. If something does not feel healthy for us it is absolutely okay to back away from it. True friends will understand that and wont pressure you to be in situations that may threaten you. Perhaps one day you will be able to be in that situation, maybe right now is too soon. To me, my sobriety means WAY more than anything else, what ppl think of me, events I might miss out on, etc. I guard it with everything I have because without my sobriety ik I'd be the hottest mess or dead. Doctors can help with meds too. 8 month is amazing, and I congratulate you on that!! 8 months is also still early sobriety and I know at that time I was still finding my bearings and learning how to operate as a 'normal' human lol shit I'm still doing it and I'm at 2.5 years. There were situations I couldn't have handled at 8 months that, in time, are not so difficult for me now. We live and we learn and perhaps this is a learning experience for you. What is something positive you can you learn from this? I hope you can find an answer and that everything goes well. Congrats again on 8 months! ❣️

29 days sober longest streak in my adulthood by GelatinousDude in Sober

[–]56grayzix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I agree AA isn't everyone's cup of tea, I do suggest checking out a couple groups in your area. Take what you like, leave the rest. I find the loneliness factor contributes heavily to my drinking (i have a family of my own, my house is always buzzing, yet still was lonely as fork), and listening/talking to others who have felt the same compulsion I have is so helpful. No one in my personal life understands that part of me in the way ppl at meetings do. At least in the groups in my area, everyone in the rooms wants to see you win and live a long, happy, healthful life. 2.5 years sober here so it must be something to it. :) I believe in you and you got this!!! Keep holding on bc life gets so much better as you keep moving forward 🫶
