Best of luck. Enjoy it while it’s good.

Remember how life goes every time you drink.

Okay, say he wasn’t famous. If he’s just walking around the supermarket, I’m telling you 99% of people who clock eyes on him will think “that’s a good looking man right there”

Rent

I really liked the “100 words a piece” bit. I’ve never heard someone describe a conversation by word count before.

I just meant this as a fun question that would get people to give their favourite response. My own response would be simply that I’m sober for years because I keep going to AA.

Good one. A bit like “why keep taking baths, you’re already clean?”

It got to 1 litre vodka a day. Wasn’t sustainable for more than two weeks at a go. After two weeks I usually ended up in the hospital.

Yes!

Exactly the same as me.

Feel better soon

Hope you’re ok now. In the past I’ve been in for acute pancreatitis and they gave me morphine for a week, really enjoyed it.

Can’t believe you did that in someone else’s toilet. The audacity.

In the UK if they deem it serious enough to admit you after tests in A&E, you’ll get a bed on a ward and given medicine to make you feel at ease while the withdrawal happens. You’ll be monitored and fed. You won’t be committed, no, you’re free to leave if you want. It can last 2-3 days but I was always kept in about 5-7 days. You should also get help or pointed in the direction to get help in staying sober. It’ll go on your medical record, of course, but there’s no shame in that, and withdrawal is very dangerous without medical help so it’s worth it. Good luck.

Ha, well that makes sense as when I questioned it further she said “I can’t really answer these questions officially as I’m not legally trained”

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply yesterday. I rang the local court and they couldn’t find any proceedings starting against my partner, which is great. They did however say to still keep an eye on the post as it’s not six months from the offence but six months from when police inform the prosecutor and present evidence of the offence. So still quite nervous! Hopefully it’s been forgotten though.
