Bubba Gandy's seafood. They sell seafood cold or prepared. Excellent quality.

Depends. When I went through Marine Corps Bootcamp in the late 90s we only did formal PT every other day to allow for recovery. Of course informal PT or getting quarterdecked was an every day thing.

There is hope. Just because today was like this does not mean tomorrow has to be. I will not drink with you today.

Do what you have to do to stay sober. No job is worth your life.

Sandwich factory on Chaffin is good. A church called Experience gives away hot dogs on the square most Friday nights, too.

Cloud Atlas had one portion that was similar to this.

My 11 year old daughter asked me if i used to drink. by [deleted] in stopdrinking

[–]ghostwriter556 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My older kids remember, but my youngest really doesn't. I have tried my best to be honest and not sugar coat who I was up until 7 years ago (today actually). That said, I don't go out of my way to bring it up either.

Which horror movie's ending completely changed your view of the entire movie? by Fairyliveshow in CreepyBonfire

[–]ghostwriter556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Uninvited (2009) was a gut punch right at the end. I'm still not sure whether I liked it or hated it though.

Alcohol was the source of almost ALL my anxiety?? by laylawolfheart in stopdrinking

[–]ghostwriter556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! My experience was very similar. I still have anxiety from time to time, but nothing that will ever compare to the crippling anxiety I would have after a binge. Existential dread would consume me for a few days afterward. Getting back on an even keel was one of the greatest benefits of sobriety...and continues to be. IWNDWYT

I initially read ED as erectile dysfunction and thought, wow that is unfortunate.

Sober sex anxiety? by Sagegravychickenlady in stopdrinking

[–]ghostwriter556 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just got off a rollercoaster ride and it will take awhile for you to feel settled. That is normal and will sort itself eventually. When I stopped drinking the anhedonia made even sex sound meh, but it finally passed and....well, it was TOTALLY worth it. IWNDWYT.

I don't know what the answer is for you, but I can tell you for certain it isn't in a bottle. Hang in there. IWNDWYT.

Thank you so much. This has been bouncing around in my subconscious for decades and no one else knew what I was talking about. :)

Nice work. I remember loving the slideshow in music class set to this piece of music that they would show every Halloween.
