Liver tests

2009-11-20T05:36:46Z

Hello.
I used to be on a medication that would raise my ALT to around 85 and
my AST to around 51. The doctors were never concerned as long as the
numbers went down the next month. I drinks a bit, about 4 beers a day.
Used to drink allot more, about 8 beers a day. I still get a liver
test every month and they usually say that my enzymes are slightly

Detox

Hi Folks,
I'm on my second day of detox, it's been fun! This is my second time around
in 30 years, I know from experience that it'll get better, but I'll be
damned if I want to do it a third time.

The
Tao, the Way, the Path
Taoism is not a religion, nor is it a philosophy. Rather, it is a
"way” of life or “path” of nature. The Tao is the natural order of

I've been through rehab three times. Twice inpatient, once
outpatient. I have found that most people are there to avoid/cut down
jail time. Bleh...

HEY...no need to stop! I've heard of an AA group out in Orange County, CA,
that's know for having a lot of "Old-timers...all Atheists.
Me, I was an Agnostic who thought it unlikely that there was a God. But I
wanted sobriety so badly I was willing to try anything, including the
Serenity Prayer. To make a long story short; there came the day when

Atheists & AA.

2009-10-18T12:06:40Z

I'm an Atheist & have been attending AA meetings.
Basically it doesn't appear to be working for me because I'm
struggling with the concepts of a " higher power" & "a God of my
understanding".
From observation it appears to work with people who don't have a
problem believing in God.
I'm tempted to stop attending, can anyone help with any thoughts, or

A very good answer!
There is no one definition that fits all alkies. Me, I wanted sobriety, so
it worked just fine. Others get done with the program and run to the nearest
bar. As someone surely said, "We're all different".

See, I understood he was talking about losing someone you love very much for
tragic reasons, not because he was talking about alcoholism itself.

Scott, whose priest guardian died from drinking alcohol, spoke of his
experience to Chloe and said he understood what she was going through. I
assumed that Scott's experience with an alcoholic guardian matched Chloe's
experience with her Mom, making her an alcoholic.
The two drinks came in rapid succession.

Did they actually say that Chloe's mom is an alcoholic? Because all I
saw was a worried woman who knew that her husband and daughter were MIA
after an attack on a military base, then meeting her 'daughter' who had
occupied some other woman's body (and NOT her husband who would have
demanded to use the stones, as he did), take *2* drinks...that doesn't
