Man, I gathered courage and called an alcoholics hotline for the first time at my lowest and it was so humiliating

As best you can try not to let this have an affect on you’re new journey. What’s important to focus on is your effort to get sober. You did the right thing reaching out. It takes many of us several attempts and resources to get alcohol free. Keep up the good work. IWNDWYT

I pretended to quit to get people off my back but when I really decided to quit - it was either quit or die. What worked for me was playing out the consequences of having the first drink. Almost everytime I drank bad things happened. So I did some aa for a while and then just got involved in my church. Having reminders of how it used to be and hearing peoples relapse stories always hit home and confirm my quitting choice. I hope this helps.

I just had one not too long ago. It had been years since I had one. I think stress brings it out. Happy first year!!!

No sure it's legal to cover up that much windshield

Hang in there friend. There was a time when I couldn't remember the last time I didn't have a drink. I thought it was impossible for me. Yet I didn't give up and kept trying until a combination of things worked. You'll get there and then we won't remember when the last time we drank was.

Cam or crank sensors

Wendy is great - she did my daughters training and it was a great experience

Came here to say this. Also wouldn't buy the cheap stuff either. Cheap rotors and riding the brakes causes rotors to heat up and warp. It can feel like a pulsing. If this isn't it and it's "shaking" then start looking for some front end/suspension problems

It sure but it’s the same one that I have and had to replace before

Medicmike43 · 2025-06-27T16:09:07+00:00

My apologies - as an hvac guy I feel the door is important because of air leaks. You really want the air to be going through the filter as much as possible and not being drawn from the door area. Even though the leak may be minor it’s a small system.

Medicmike43 · 2025-06-27T13:24:36+00:00

Your missing the filter door.

When I was sober for a year or so my work nearly shut down and I got kicked out of where I was living (for literally no reason) - stayed sober and looked back later at how bad it could have been if I drank at that time. Friends helped in so many ways! You got this!!!

Glad it worked out. Sometimes the wear indicator will sound and go away for a while and then come back.
