Ocean Swimmer,

Alcohol makes all my symptoms 100% worse..I do love it and when medicated I try n have one here n there, cuz I can stop after one and don't binge. But it's not smart for me to do that. I stopped meds after a month on them and had a full blown binge with ambien. Not so good. Could have cost me my job. That's when I went back to the meds and stoppped the alcohol.

I don't like AA, but alcoholism also runs in my fam. I will attend the Smartrecovery.org meetings online for now and maybe find a group therapy or something in my town. I think alcohol is dangerous for me. It really scares me. The consequences.

All the best to you in Costa Rica. Pura Vida ! I love that place
