Hi, I don't think I've blogged for a bit. It's come to my attention quite awhile ago, that while trying to stop smoking I increased my drinking instead. Why I don't know, I guess I thought that would relax me instead of the cigs.
I had a blood test done last Friday, my liver was off. I have been asking for help to stop drinking for a year now.
Talked to the doctor's assistant on Tuesday. She gave me a name for a clinic that's still open to help a person stop drinking. I am sure, this is part of why I kept relapsing. Duel addictions to work on. The pandemic doesn't help at all. My daughter was home for me for 3 weeks, but she was exposed to Covid patient at work, and the next day she said there were now 6 patients there with it. She has had her immunizations, her second one was on Tuesday. I was exposed to her and now I'm self isolating. She took a break and went home, until things settle on the ward again, to avoid my getting constant exposure. Anyway, I will be stopping alcohol, I'm probably an alcoholic by now.
I have stopped the cigarettes. I'm sure I'm in for a rough ride with lot's of work to do for both addictions.
Thanks for listening. I know this site is for stop smoking, but now I can work on both.
