Was actually wondering about you the other week, slightly worried you haven't been around or involved in the gathering thread.

So sorry to hear all this.  You are certainly a fighter, and you got this.

Lean on the community, we have your back.

Damn Vince, You've been through so much these last few years and overcome everything. You can do it again, all any of us have is one day sober. Booze creeped into your thoughts, like it always does, alcoholism is a fucked up disease that constantly tells us that we don't have it. You can call me anytime....and yes, I will be praying for you.:hug:

I wish you the best of luck. I know that struggle very well

6 and a half years is quite an accomplishment. Even if you fell off the wagon, it doesn't erase what you were able to do. I got sober earlier this year after about 2.5 years of hard, daily drinking. I knew that if I kept going that I'd end up with cirrhosis or heart disease or something like that by my early 30s. I still live in fear, every day, that I'll go back to my old ways

I'm not a religious person, but I wish you well. I hope you find comfort in your religion, but remember that it was you, your will power and your strength that allowed you to remain sober for so long. You still have that strength inside of you. Harness it to overcome this difficult time

I will be
calling you tomorrow with my new number. My antique Obama phone is dropping calls constantly so I joined the 21st century and bought my first ever smartphone. :cheer:

I was completely conscious during the 25 minute defibrillator insertion, just barely enough fent in a IV drip to dull the pain, but certainly no where near la-la land.(just as well):yesnod:

One messed up aspect was I was ordered to have zero water or food after 11 PM for my morning procedure and I didn't get my operation until  7 PM ( almost 20 hour long fast.:gc:)

I absolutely felt the first cut, the forceful moving of the device around trying to find a depression to park it,and the closing sutures.

No narcotic painkillers were prescribed but I was given 2 librium which I was already taking for my uncontrollable shakes. What pain I do feel now is tolerable.

@ Stimpson- I messed up my heart with over 40 years of heavy smoking and daily heavy drinking, several years of daily IV use of heroin, coke, meth, and pretty much any barbiturate or sedative that dissolves in water.

I became a drug dealer in 7th grade because if I sold 2/3 of whatever pills, powder, pot, hash, whatever, the rest was free.:winner:




I do have early stage 3 cirrhosis which I probably picked up in 1984 around the same time I got infected with Hepatitis C.
Fortunately in 2016 after 2 years of sobriety I was treated for 12 weeks and cured of my HCV and the virus remains undetected.:super:

I so appreciate the support and kind words from this community that some of y'all's posts put tears (of joy) in my eyes.
I love probably 90% of our community and the few I disagree with I must learn to accept differences in opinion and stop feeling and feeding on hate and rage. :ashamed: It's potentially killing me.
Earlier today I was raging about a Trump statement or story and my defibrillator detected an immediate arrhythmia where my heart beat went  crazy for several seconds:uhoh:

I'm probably going to pretty much avoid the Political Forum because I'm not willing to die because of the moronic elected idiots on both sides adding unnecessary stress to my ticker.

I think next week when I'm released from the hospital I'll be going to an in house psysical therapy facility (doctors orders ) a few days or a week to get my strength back.

Be safe and be well  frinds...:peace:
TL/didn't read, 2 fuckin' bad. I'm still pretty much confined to my bed:shrug:

That sounds like it was a horror show, great to hear you're on the other side now though :sun:

Hope the PT and everything goes well. Going through a rehab program should speed your recovery up big time. It's internship season too so you'll probably spend most of the time hanging out with hot new grad PT and OT chicks :smirk:

Wise move to tune out of politics for awhile, the stress caused by focusing on all the fuckery going on right now just isn't healthy, gotta try to just stay focused on what's right in front of us and what we can control.

Second this.
I´m ex addict and alcoholic.
Was physically depended on alocohol and benzos and opiats for long time.
Alcohol and benzos for 10+ years.
We all need are fixes but if you are ex addict you gotta pick the ones that dont kill you or mess up with your life too badly.
For me it is weed, coffee and sex.
Can cope with those and still not mess my life up too badly.
Training and good diet essential for feeling good imho!
If not feeling good naturally supplementing with unhealthy choises is too easy imho.

Hang in there mate:heart: You can do this:heart:

/comfort

the forces of Discord sneak up on the best of us, always with that small, sneaky, seductive voice saying "it will be fine, this time will be different, you'll see..." sometimes the hardest lessons to learn are that there's just some things you aren't meant to "get better" at handling. sometimes poison is just poison, and while it's possible to build resistance to poison... you could simply just not drink poison at all. :lol:

it's not like you're being forced to drink it, after all. i promise, if your friends really, really get on your case that much for not drinking alcohol with them even socially... you need new friends. :P that said, from going that many years without, sounds like that's not the issue - you clearly have done very well in the willpower department! you just got tricked, like so many before have. well, now you're wiser for the experience, and you clearly have the strength to resist still!

Hi Vinsue. We love you and need you at the Shroomery. You're part of the glue that keeps us all together. Get healthy and stay healthy please. I'm not into god, but I will pray for you anyways.

Addiction is a hard disease to deal with. Just remember that it is a disease and that you made a mistake and it's ok to make mistakes. Don't be hard on yourself. Just do what you can to get sober again and fill your life with happiness. Instead of beer try drinking smoothies and doing push-ups or crunchys.

Stay positive and remember that we are here for you!

Yeah man, stress is a fucking physical killer, scientific fact! Take it easy and don't watch or listen to the crap going on right now. Focus on your health and getting as good as you can be right now. We're getting an elliptical machine and some weights soon for the basement room (luckily we have the space). I need to get back to some daily/weekly exercising. I was a waiter/bartender for 35 years and stopped moving around so much when I got this nursing gig. I too was an IV coke and speed user, but for a shorter time and it was only me doing it alone, weird times.:heart:
