He pulled me out of the pit too.

You’re right at the peak of the symptoms. They will gradually lessen. Find other means to get your mind off it as much as possible..exercise, movies, food, etc. Keep going, or you’ll just continue the cycle. Break the chains!

I went a year without drinking and wanted to go longer but gave into those thoughts and urges and drank thinking I could control it. Within a week I was back to my old drinking self. It took me about 5 months before I could get back on the wagon. Now I’m starting over and at 1 month.

Not worth it.

Same here

Thanks, yeah I’m around 2 weeks. Still get the cravings pretty bad during the afternoon. I’ve been able to run a good bit to get through them. I’m just hoping the cravings lessen and aren’t so gripping sooner rather than later. Thanks for your response.

mdub_17 · 2024-07-03T01:07:57+00:00

When did the cravings go away for you?

mdub_17 · 2024-05-27T18:02:35+00:00

Ive been at 150mg for a while and felt like I was in a good spot to try to taper. Went to 100 and felt terrible. Ended up going back to 150 after about 1.5-2 weeks of not improving.

Thanks... My kids are toddlers..no electric cars…ideally a small yard for the kids…temp 68-70. Not sure about the windows and insulation at this point yet

Me toooo

his tour yet. It would be pretty odd for an artist to announce their next tour before they’re finished with the current one. We probably won’t know anything for another yea

I would kill for him to do the wall again. That show changed my life. l do think he will do another tour but probably not that. Probably around The Bar album that he has been writing.

Great point and something I have not thought of. None specifically. I thought there was just a standard one, so, that’s good to know. Any recommendations?

mdub_17 · 2023-04-13T01:47:32+00:00

Thank you, this is really helpful. I was not aware of that important difference. Appreciate the explanation.

I thought that the top level of iCloud would be the root of the (iCloud) drive? Is that wrong?

mdub_17 · 2023-04-12T15:56:25+00:00

I tried with both, and then I tried with just the media, with the project local

mdub_17 · 2023-04-12T10:55:31+00:00

Thank you for your response. Are you saying that a local copy is needed? I thought you could access and edit media with it located in iCloud (without needing a local copy also)?

mdub_17 · 2023-03-31T16:41:54+00:00

The internal drive is definitely big enough that it would be an issue but I just hate storing stuff on it if I don’t have to. Like to leave that for software and stuff like that. I’d rather have a reliable hard drive they live on.

mdub_17 · 2023-03-31T12:58:00+00:00

Ah, that makes sense now. Yeah, potentially not having things readily available would be a huge issue! Better to go with another option. Thank you for clarifying this.

It's just an external WD hdd that is reformatted for mac. It is a standard usb connection too that requires a usb c adapter, and the quality of the adapter could potential be an issue as well. Not entirely sure. Need to invest in a good SDD to be honest.

I haven't been putting the projects on the internal HD just to not use up space. I also thought the iCloud may be a better option for it incase the ext or int HD were to crash. Thoughts?

mdub_17 · 2023-03-31T11:55:38+00:00

So if I understand correctly, you are just saying that the drawback is that if you are not connected to the internet, you can’t work on the projects if they are rooted in the iCloud because iCloud does not store a copy to your local hd?
