I did feel better after my laproscopy and my drinking went back to
pretty much being on a social basis. The pain is coming back again, but
not nearly as bad as before. I think before I just couldn't cope
sometimes and for some reason I went straight for the liquor cabinet
when I got home. Whether it was my own personal pitty party...rebelion
against what I was feeling...numbing tactic...I don't know, but I
understand that gravitation.
