So I decided to quit my job and check into rehab for alcohol. I needed a reset. Things have been really tough.
I just was curious what I should do with my last weekend with WoW for awhile? I would like something to spice it up.
All of next week is planned for family. It’s going to be rough saying bye to everyone but I have drank to the point of completely running my life multiple times. It’s time to go.
So. Before I retired my old account, I made a crap ton of expensive items, like the craftable engineering mounts, and the even the alchemy drake, and just straight up mailed em to random people in trade chat that were nice. Also, congrats on getting the help!
If you are near redding i highly recommend good news rescue mission. Its a year long program but it will transform your life you let it. I wish you best on your road to recovery.
((Irendyn)) - I’m sorry you have to deal with this disease. I’ve been there - remember it’s not a character flaw. Remember staying sober is harder than getting sober the first year. Remember to learn your red flag situations. There’s more, but I’ll keep it simple with those three. I wish you success and peace of heart. And more than anything remember there are angels on your shoulders like me when it gets hard that are supporting you and have been through the same journey and won.
My dads a recovering alcoholic.
I remember him being passed out groaning on our kitchen floor when I was a child. And then another time where he was in hospital, skin and eyes bright yellow from Jaundice.
He’s had relapses through the years but let me tell you, he is younger today having quit drinking than the memories I have of him as a kid. Spiritually, Mentally, Physically. You’d swear he’s aged in reverse over the past 20 years.
Good luck to you.
I was a heavy drinker for many years. After going on a low carb diet, I lost my alcohol cravings. Be aware of what you eat. Make sure you get enough protein.
Eh, na. Drinking is serious. The only thing I can say is stick to the program. Don’t think you’re cured because you don’t want a drink, and don’t allow yourself to make excuses as to why you need a drink or should be drinking… it’s all garbage mind games.
You can do it, just stick with the program. There’s a lot more to it, and it will take a lot of work but again, you can do it.
Best of luck with everything. I can only imagine the challenge that lay ahead of you, but even without knowing you, I hope you are able to overcome it and emerge on the other side happier, healthier and ready to come back to WoW with an all new outlook on life.
