thx. kicking the booze was easier than I exepcted, & far more simple than any other time I've tried 2 cut back & give up my precious beer in the past! but I believe I just traded in 1 vice 4 another... & yes, hopefully I can get on a new med that I won't abuse & will once again b good 2 go til refill day! just one day at a time, I guess... but I'm still out of meds til the 23rd so it's quite a bit of a struggle at the moment...
