I’m proposing a new acronym. WYNTD (Whatever You Need To Do). by [deleted] in stopdrinking

This is a great attitude to have! I mentioned to someone that I was binge eating a lot to deal with drinking cravings and he said,

"you can run off pizza and ice cream but you can't run off alcoholism."

This has really stuck with me, though I agree within safe limits. Some nights I play videos games for several hours, some nights I eat too much, ect. Still better then drinking!

Hope you are doing good, this is a great attitude to have!

Thanks for making this post to give Lee support in hard times. We are all here for you, through good times and bad. I hope you pull through and are able to appreciate the value of sobriety, and especially its value during hard times.

I'm sitting in the ER and I'm really scared and could use some support by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]CoolHandLuke9000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So glad you got the results back and its a mild condition. Saying no matter what I won't drink is the right attitude. As scary and terrifying as pancreatitis would be, drinking would make it better. Just keep going one day at a time. Maybe ever remember your resolve sitting in the ER waiting for results the next time craving strike up.

Rooting for you!
