I came across this in another thread but never replied and cant find it again but I so related.
Without alcohol I cant relax and concentrate enough to watch films or tv programmes. I normally just chill with music. My attention span is shot to pieces. I was drinking everyday and decided in the new year to quit. Ive been getting high fevers all over the place so take some extra meds I bought online.
I feel the boredom but don't want to do anything, and I turn to drink. Maybe the boredom is just natural for former addicts. The film trainspotting springs to mind. But that part is prob in the book and not the film.
If anyone tells me to exercise I will hunt them down and slay them(its a joke)
I do swim several times a week and it does work wonders but at home I'm bored . Maybe I'm lonely I live alone.
