I'm not so confident today as last Friday was the worst of my intoxicating moments since beginning 7 weeks ago. Im on 50mg but wondering if I should up to 75ml?
Of course there were several reasons why I likely drank to the point of black out and then coming out of it a few hours later at my friends bar where it had all began in the afternoon. But what scares me most is that this time it totally snuck up on me!! Usually I feel it coming on - but this time was out of left field.
It scared me pretty bad and I keep lamenting and beating myself up over the things I actually do remember. Perhaps that's just part of my alcoholism?
Can anyone share some similar stories or have any word of advice for this TSM rookie?
Anything is greatly appreciated!

You're still doing stretching exercises - the marathon has only just begun. Far too soon to be tinkering with a plan you haven't even worked through yet in the normal way.

Hang in there ... this is a process that's all about repetition and iteration. I may be the king of bad metaphors, but maybe it's like learning a new language. It's not like yesterday you didn't know, erm, Icelandic and today you do. It's more like yesterday I knew only a little, and today I learned a little more but, darn it, I also forgot one of my words from yesterday. Argh.

After six months (or a year) you look around and realize, "Hey, ég er að fá ansi góður í þessu!"
Hey, I'm getting pretty good at this!

Hang in there!
