It seems like a concrete plan is needed here.
Could you work out the minimum amount of tabs you could take a day and at certain times?
Years ago the doctor prescribed Valium which he gave me for years, coming off them was hell on this earth. He cut the dose and and one point to quickly, he said I was in danger of a fit and then went more slowly.
you wanna see pouring your heart out look at the post i made last night.....i was an absolute mess.....and at times it didnt seem like any1 was gonna reply to me....but they did...and then i get off of work and there were a few more responses...so hang in there bud.....your a guido to nice lol.
Sway~ That was an excellent observation...
Swagger~ You seem to have some anger issues. When you begin your tapering and get to those AA meetings,you may feel better. Your last post sounded really angry...
Good luck~

Sounds like your wife could use some help too swagger.......sara
you are looking outside yourself and examining other's motives. impossible to do especially online. your motives are what you should be examining. you say that you kids turned away from you because of beer. is that what you trully believe? or are you using alcohol to build a barrier around yourself? the only way to do this thing is honestly. after years of using any drug, honesty gets like an onion, with many layers. it's time for you to start peeling.
there are no rules here that say people must respond to your post. i feel fortunate when they do. i won't coddle you. you spend way too much time being offended by others instead of looking inside yourself. when you are ready for some honest hard work, you will find some relief. i say this because i want you to heal and i don't mean any harm. sometimes people are too soft. help can come from some unlikely places, so keep your mind as open as possible.
sincerely, your friend, sway
Hey Swagger, if you still have your laptop. I don't hang on the forum, I like to visit, it has learned me much. Didn't know addiction could be so interesting and a place to meet people! It's great to find other's with such unique problems, that otherwise I wouldn't find. I don't always have access, and stuff just happens. You mentioned earlier about when the pills get so small how to continue breaking them accurately into smaller pieces. Usually by the pick up counter at the drug store, they sell pill cutters, just for that purpose, there about 4 bucks and I use the tool all the time, it's very helpful, what with being ham handed. Glad you found us, patience ain't easy, hang in here and you'll find it a valuable resource!
you may not be addicted to the beer but you are still using it as a crutch...so to answer your question....its not a good idea to have the drink....i know how hard it could be
