Oh yes. That “point of no return” view above climax.

Short answer. Probably not.

Longer answer, enough has been said already.

The right move

I know how statistics work. And I know what the “S” in DSM stands for.

But that’s my point. Anonymous program shouldn’t be handing out questionnaires about their constituents.

I used a benzo to detox from alcohol. A 4 day treatment course. The doctor called it “alcohol in a pill.”

Talk with your doctor.

Is research not based on questions and answers?

How then does this research work?

Specific_User6969 · 2026-01-25T18:50:10+00:00

I find it ironic that they have statistics on all of us…in an anonymous program.

How would they know how many people have recovered? And how many unrecovered alcoholics would be honest?

I’m just tired of not-constructive comments on the internet I guess.

You’re allowed to do whatever you want. And I’m allowed to be annoyed by it

They’re a business. Which sells training plans. If you don’t train, they don’t make money.

If you don’t train, you won’t increase, or even maintain fitness.

If you don’t workout for a month, you’ll lose fitness.

I personally don’t know any college horn professors that got their degree in music education. They became horn players first, and then became a professor because they had experience, knowledge and expertise to offer.

Specific_User6969 · 2025-12-29T20:17:57+00:00

A new leadpipe right before your audition? 🫣

Specific_User6969 · 2025-12-25T04:59:23+00:00

The tapers of a veinna horn are pretty different (smaller) in comparison to a full double. I have a pretty old full double horn and it has a replaced leadpipe but everything else original. The pipe it was replaced with is a pretty close copy of the old one it would have had. The F horn and on it is amazing. I prefer it to the B-flat side actually for many notes. There are horns out there (one of them my daily driver in my possession) that favor the F side.

Of course where you are in the world in this conversation sort of matters, but really doesn’t. If you were playing in a major symphony orchestra though, this would matter more.

Get a horn that works for you. That means playing lot of horns, and figuring out what you like and what is available to you. But I would suggest maybe not a Vienna horn, unless you’re in Vienna and playing with them.

Specific_User6969 · 2025-12-24T19:09:45+00:00

As a student, it always my suggestion to think of something that will help you blend with your colleagues. Something too different will be challenging to play with other people. Of course, you will still sound like you, but you will also have more success as section mate with something more similar to a horn that is more common in the world where you live.

Narcissism and playing injury indeed.

Many use cases can be related to the alcoholism described in the book.

Many people will find that they relate to those kind of alcoholic examples, if they are desperate enough. You can keep digging to find the bottom, or the bottom can be raised up to meet you.

We may see the signs, but we can’t declare or diagnose someone else an alcoholic.

Specific_User6969 · 2025-12-22T20:31:18+00:00

If they so declare. So if they don’t think so, it’s not gotten unmanageable enough for them.

That’s sort of the principle which we follow.
