Thanks.

It's not good for me, I eat junk food when I've been drinking and it's a waste of money. I still hope I can control it long term rather than needing to be completely tee total but just got to take one step at a time.

I'm not sure how long I'll go tee total, but perhaps 3 months or so to begin with.

I'm sorry.

Are there any menial jobs near you that wouldn't need a degree. Like working in a store or restaurant? That'd be a good start surely... could you maybe get a part time whilst still qualifying for disability?

I know working at home is what you really want right now, but you need to consider all options.

It has made my health anxiety play up a little, looking out for possible symptoms etc. but overall not too much.

I've not had the flu in a very long time and I get the flu jab anyway... although I think the strain going around isn't covered by it.

Appointment with professor went well. There's no presentations in this class so that's a relief, don't even have to make alternative arrangements. Usually with professors what I do is arrange to do presentations if we have them just in front of the professor at a different time or do something alternative like an essay or project. Plus I'll be taking my tests in the testing center in a distraction free room with time and a half on them so I don't have to feel rushed.

It's only going on 1 now and class isn't till 6. I am staying though because if I go home now I won't feel like coming back out later. I've got my laptop, puzzle books, magazines and newspapers to occupy myself till then

I'm getting a bed soon. I've been sleeping on the floor the past 7 months because my cot broke. Can't wait!

Yes. If you do that now it will be much easier. I quit drinking in my late 20s and it wasn't as hard for me. I was a binge drinker so in my case I stopped going out to bars on the weekends. So I was lonelier, but I still lost interest in drinking. I can drink a little bit since then. But with my meds I barely use it anymore. I wish you the best of luck with quitting.
Thanks for this!

I’ve recently just got over a cold.

I'm glad yours is gone! I should still be taking my ColdEeze lozenges but I hate the slow dissolution and the taste of the zinc. Oh well. Hopefully my immune system is gathering strength.

Also, was it hard to find work? How much do you make?


I’m signed up for quite a few like admin assistant, data entry (I don’t recommend because the pay sucks for most of them), stuff like that. But they have so much to choose from.
It all depends on how many people applied and what you bid to work for per hour. There is also an like an application you fill out to tell them about yourself. You tell them your experience and stuff like that (why you’d be good at the job etc).

I never take any supplements for colds. I’d just heard there is no real evidence they work. I just use Lempsip which is like a paracetamol and decongestant drink. I’m sure you guys have something similar.
