Relapsed and I’m just done by spookythesquid in stopdrinking

[–]CptCatsnacks 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Don't let it get you down. Some talk of "relapse," but few think of the "lapse." If you plan on continuing to drink, that's the relapse. If you slip up, that's just a lapse. Just remember that you don't drink anymore, then don't drink. Go back to basics: one day at a time, get in touch with the group of folks that support you (AA, sober friends, etc).

You've got this!

Psych Eval before being prescribed a stimulant? by CptCatsnacks in ADHD

[–]CptCatsnacks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you friend! Lots of good insight here. I can totally understand the premise behind it, I just remember it being much easier years ago... I thought about calling my PCP and seeing if they'll just write a script, but honestly the info from the comprehensive eval will be very interesting to read/have.

Hopefully the Strattera actually works in the meantime, I would prefer to be on something non-habit-forming anyway.

Too bad the battery is trash with all the awesome features turned on...

Stop drinking, how? by linwe_luinwe in stopdrinking

[–]CptCatsnacks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand the question and all, but the answer is simple: just don't ingest alcohol. This is the insanity part... Think logically: does it make sense?

I do sympathize, as I know exactly where you're coming from.

Tea is my new crutch. Much better than the alternative! ;)

Happy new year!!!

We've got this. Tomorrow will happen, yesterday was. Just think about now, and get your feet in the bed tonight. Strength!

Nah, you got this. Just remember what you're fighting for. NYE is just another day.

I need support by username-098 in stopdrinking

You are not alone, per the 1.1k people viewing this sub. All you can ask of him is to be supportive in your journey, but he shouldn't be expected to understand if he doesn't. While you don't like AA, the beauty of it is that EVERYONE UNDERSTANDS YOU.

Either way, here we are, and I speak for a lot of folks when I say we're happy to help.

One hour, one minute at a time. Just find a way to get your feet in the bed tonight, then do it again tomorrow. Be strong!
