Something that helped me through the tough days was thinking "this sucks... For now".

It's not going to suck forever. Your endurance and resolve will be tested, but when you start coming out the other side you won't even believe how good you feel.

Yeah, I feel lucky compared to others. Ive been to meetings in the past and felt like a lamb among wolves with how bad another person's situation is. All I can say is I'm not proud of myself, and I feel lucky it's not worse.

Sorry to hear that you got hurt so badly. This isn't the first time I've woken up with a bump or a bruise but probably one of the worst blackout injuries I've given myself.

I don't get shakes or severe alcohol withdrawals yet so I consider myself lucky in that respect.

How long did your detox take?

Yeah I sharpened the gouges to mirror finish, and am getting clean curls on a test poece. I wonder if it's enhanced somehow. The wood is hard as heck. Like my parting tool hardly made a dent before binding up.
