Stop worrying about whether 'they'...Hi Jon,<br /><br />Stop worrying about whether 'they' might be right that you have crossed the line. There is no such thing as a conviction to a lifetime of alcohol addiction. There is only the risk that you may start believe this because of your own doubts. Let this myth be your motivation to prove them wrong and prove yourself right that you have a freedom of choice, which you have.<br /><br />The more realistic concern is your desire to run away from things. For me this was the main reason to drink. Perhaps the most common reason to use drugs? The far better option is to try change your life so that there is no or little reason to flee. Use your freedom of choice there as well. Alcohol only offers a temporary relief, to make you miserable afterwards and undermines your capabilities to execute your free will. Which is exactly what you don't want! <br /><br />Perhaps it is the same story with the Baclofen. You told me you stopped taking them because you are worried taking pills. If you 'want' to worry, worry about taking alcohol. In other words, don't let the wrong kind of worries drive your actions.<br /><br />You don't have to keep your fingers crossed that your life doesn't fall apart. You decide, you're the boss.<br /><br />Stay well.<br /><br />Sjoerd<br />Sjoerdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248150235501259264noreply@blogger.com
