I got inpatient. Didn't want to wait for three more weeks to see my p-doc about it. Asked my p-doc friend, who basically said that unless I take benzos, alcohol in moderation is OK. I do not take benzos any more and never plan to resume benzos in my life. He said with Lithium it is OK. I know he is biased because he enjoys alcohol himself, but that was good enough for me. I know my medications work just as well when I drink a bit.

So I went to my grocery store and bought a random bottle of Pinot Noir. In the past, way before the dx, I liked Pinot Noir. Well, this bottle is bad. Not horrible - I will finish it eventually, but I won't buy any more. And I do not know what happened - did I stop liking Pinot Noir or is this particular one that does not agree with me?

I really need to go to Trader Joe's for cheap wine.

I ate less food for dinner since wine has calories.

That's all from me.
