Anyone else have the sensation that their feet are ice cold and yet are warm to the touch? I am sure it is PN but this weirdness just started a month ago. So annoying and I have to wonder if it will continue in the warmer months. Always something new with this beast.

SC,
completely agree.....My daughter had been a cocaine user; she was in rehab a couple of times.. Although alcohol is not her drug of choice and rarely every drank; it was greatly stressed NO ALCOHOL.....or any other drugs. She goes to AA meetings and has to say; "My name is .........; I am an alcoholic and drug addict". She has been "clean" for several years. But thru rehab, those in charged; if you stop one; you will eventually go to the other.... BTW: She thoroughly believes in AA meetings has and still has been going for years. She is now a Certified Alcohol & Drug Counselor (CADC), as well as a Certified Recovery Support Specialist for Mental and Substance Abue (CRSS). Gerry |

Yes, I still worry about him and wonder if he has ever worked thru his demons. I watch his behavior closely and while I don't think he drinks to great excess, it could escalate at any time. Once an addict always an addict and he likely inherited my addictive personality. As for me I always loved my beer. I thought drinking non alcoholic beer would be a logical substitution after rehab but even that was stressed as a big no-no and brain tease.

I wrote a very long reply yesterday, forgot to post (grr), but basically agreed mostly. Shame.
Just imagine my usual long-winded post to say in my own way I agreed. |

I happened to find a pic from, erm, someone who used to drink. It's erm, a friend. Yes, a friend. On the left he was 10 days in rehab, about 5.5 years ago. On the right, a non-photoshopped (so he tells me) version of the same friend, yesterday. My friend say he hoped it may inspire people if they are looking for a reason to get or stay sober.
I wish you all a great 2018! |

The visuals of your friends is so powerful. Both men truly have stepped back in time and look so fresh. Please tell your “friends” they’ve done good and while I’m all about being humble, it’s important to acknowledge and credit the work they have put in to maintain their sobriety. Really well done
