Hello Newlife

The af days were a struggle to have for me to, the first was ok but then the second came and arrgh I found that one tough. I guess most of it was habit, so I broke that habit by doing more stuff in the evening, I am out 3 nights a week and I don't drink then (choir, exersice, scouts) then I found I had got out of the habit of drinking in the week... so my new normal is to not!

Way to hang in there, nigelr! Thanks for the update and I'm glad to hear the AF days are coming so easily. Have you been at 50mg all along?

I take a pill and a half... isn't that 75?

A pill and a half is indeed 75mg.

Nigelr,

Thanks for keeping us up to date.

I am still amazed by your progress (which looks amazing), for it would be so difficult for me if I had your profession.

Do you think 1 1/2 pills helped with your progress? And how long into TSM did you decide to up your dose?

Keep in touch,

Jaba

heya Jaba,

I upped my dose about 3 months ago I guess, not sure if that made the change, but the change has happened in that time frame. I would guess it was more to do with the length of time I have been on TSM.

I'm sitting here not feeling like its a wow success by the way, but I admit to myself I am in a way way better place

From what I've read here and from what my TSM doc said some do better with 100mg, but you seem to feel ok on 75mg, so all's well.

Nal on, Nigel!

Nigelrs,

I wouldn't say that your progress isn't WOW, for any progress is a WOW in my book!

Plus, do you think things would be if you had a different profession?

I know my progress would be a lot different if my spouse drank, I bartended a pub, or ran/managed winery or distillery.

My gfs husband works for Samuel Adams beer and he is always bringing home their select beers or a new brew for her, and she said it is just so hard to pass up and not drink (however she doesn't do TSM).

When your brain is ready to give it up it will; in the meantime nal on and be proud of your progress!

Jaba

Joe, I sent you a PM
