In my experience resisting urges to drink does get easier with time and I hope that the same will be the case for you.
Hi Kiwi33, thank you for the welcome!

I'm glad your paresthesias were mild. I've never experienced anything like that in my life. Since that party where I conned myself and said "no, nothing bad will happen," I've been completely off of it. And just reading exactly what alcohol does (there is nowhere near enough public ed - it is all focused on tobacco) keeps me sober. I enjoy my life and my fitness much too much, and will not destroy my life anymore.

Thank you for your great words of support. Paresthesias have really tamed down in the 6 days since they occurred. But I will post an update now. Who knows who might be helped some day
