LOL actually I might have a drink twice a year, It's just never appealed to me much.

I have been med free close to a year now and altho its not all rainbows and puppies I have been able to white knuckle it and ride the waves.

I do have to say I took almost a year to prepare myself to go med free (yes my pdoc was ok with my doing this) building a huge tool box of coping skills, I made enormous lifestyle changes.

Im sure I might crash and burn and possible need a short term of a medication in the future, But I really saw no reason to ingest Chemicals daily if I still tended to cycle anyway.
