Not signed but I'm more of a social drinker anyways.
Good luck to all those who are participating. I won't have a beer in your honor but maybe I'll light up a doob

I'm going to take a break for about a month as soon as I run out. I can't have stuff in the house or it will be consumed.

Alcohol consumption goes down,caffeine consumption goes up.
I run every morning, since I can't do that (comfortably) with a hangover.

I'm kind of over drinking. I would still be happy to have a few beers in a social setting, but sitting at home and drinking isn't any fun anymore to me. I was just off for 10 days and I think I had a total of 9 beers. The lady likes to have about two beers on Friday nights so I will probably go along on that for her, but other than that I'm good.

That's my pace too- about 1 or 2 glasses of wine on a weekend night and I'm all warm and fuzzy. Any more than that and I get hungover. |

So, that last time I drank, I fell and did something to my arm. I'm on the 7th day of pain. It's the worst when I lay down, so sleeping has been a challenge. It was feeling better yesterday, but then I lifted something heavy and immediately knew I had made mistake. Makes not drinking a little more of a challenge, but it's also a reminder why I'm not drinking.

I know that you can take 3 Aleve at once and that is what they use as prescription strength. That's what I took for a broken collar bone. But if the nerve is pinched it's just gonna suck for a while.
Ice ice baby

I tweaked the hell out of my neck. 5 days going. Hope some gym time, stretching, and losing some gut will help.
Precisely Hokie. I couldn't agree more.

Ice ice baby Oh. It sucks. The pain when I lay down is bad. Only pain worse I've experienced is when I sprained my ankle, and that was so bad. I'm considering seeking out some good edibles just so that I can sleep. |

Melatonin or benadryl might help you sleep.

I just recently started taking valerian root again.

Melatonin or benadryl might help you sleep. Normally melatonin does. Benadryl doesn't effect me like that, oddly. I tried sleeping pills last night which is similar or maybe the same thing and was still awake at 5am. At work at 830. I made a 5 scoop french press and filled up the yeti. It's hitting the spot. |

Otc sleep aids have never worked on me. They just make me feel groggy and weird but not actually sleep.

A buddy of mine said he had good luck with valerian tincture when he was kicking heroin. He said the capsules didn't help but the tincture did.

we kind of raged pretty hard from before thanksgiving to yesterday.
today is a new day. my wife and I are taking it up a notch spiritually no plans to rage anytime soon. focus on meditation, yoga, tai chi and better understanding how to interface with reality to bring into our reality to better shape it.
the key is to reprogram the mind and replace it with things that make you happy and focus on that regardless of what the attachment to the physical whisper in your ear. eat me. do me. ect.
its so odd, my most purely joyful moments have nothing to do with partying but its an attachment to your higher self and not the physical plane. Much harder to convince the ego that thats what the ego wants.
