The Salem witch trials was less extreme than earlier witch hunts. I learnt this from this podcast music.kzread.info/dash/bejne/eIt7sdxrj8fMcdI.html&si=-hVQa-TpG7UPm1dh. Most people charged were not killed because there was a court system to convict suspects. And they were somewhat anxious to not kill innocent individuals. Of course everyone they still killed was innocent of the charge.

This was very good. I gave up drinking in one momentous decision. I was told by my cardiologist to lose 10kg before the next appointment, and give up alcohol. I did both. No looking back, or looking at others. I want to live, and regain better heart health. It’s a no-brained. This book summary has supported my new aspiration.

I found the easiest way to stop alcohol is to think of it as poison which it is in reality . So at the supermarket i deliberately avoid the alcohol aisle. Sometimes that fails but it does get easier to say no.

My son is having trouble with drinking to cope with challenges. He’s aware of it and has spoken to me about it. He hasn’t had a drink for a week now. He says he won’t drink again till he gets his life sorted. Do you think me buying this book as a gift might help him at this point, he probably won’t buy it himself but it sounds like it’s just what he needs?

I'm an alcoholic, but I truly think my perspective is such an outlier that it cannot be, "cured". I'm 37 and have been drinking insanely since 17. I've lost jobs, girlfriends, my freedom, my sanity, been through life threatening alcohol withdrawal FAR too many times, you name it... Been to hospital, detoxes, countless times sweating it out for weeks at home (thank you American health care for ZERO help and full fear) and nothing has worked. My reason? In a sentence, "I simply have never seen a future worth fighting for." After a lifetime of terrible situations, horrible lifelong depression, massive insomnia, uncontrollable anxiety and overall due to financial situations a ridiculous amount of time it took me to finally live on my own... I developed an utter passion for running to booze. And never ever a, "ah a few beers with the boys to get away from it all". No. Hard locked down in my cold room, near a computer, away from everyone full on hard liquor to massive blackouts every single time. I would assume by this point in my life I have been intoxicated to some degree just as many hours as I have been sober for my entire life... I love It, I love the whole ritual of going to the liquor store, looking at the glass bottles, selecting my poison, coming home, freezing the booze, taking ice cold shots in front of my computer and just vegging out until oblivion. Rinse and repeat. I am sadomasochistic as well, I know this about myself. The sadist part is extremely obvious if you know me, but the masochism is by far in WATCHING myself deteriorate... When going through serious, like, reality shaking --- shakes --- and throwing up acid I get this sick kick about KNOWING my body is dying, that I am finite and my ego has never existed. I feel like I've "won" life because I know that these fucking stupid mind games of, "be a better person, be the best you" is all bullshit and literally 100% of the time someone says that to you it's either stupid platitudes or they are completely trying to sell you something they can profit from. I absolutely will never stop drinking. Today I can go long bouts of being sober (well, for me it's only about a month at a time) but then I relapse HARD as if it's medicine. Grab two liners of scotch, lock myself into my apartment and rinse my organs clean with booze, go through withdrawal and then go back to a soulless existence. This behaviour is reflected in my day to day life as well. I am single by choice (I see no value in having a partner), I have no kids (snipped at 25 I absolutely hate all children and anything to do with them), I have next to zero social life (never liked it) and spend a herculean amount of my time alone because it makes me feel better to be away from people. The thing these books and "programs" do not understand is that there ARE people out there who simply just do not fancy living, but we're also scared of pulling the trigger to shoot ourselves because of our hardwired biology. So we just end our lives a little at a time and have SOME fun doing it before an infinity of oblivion.

Ever try psychedelics? DMT? Ayahuasca You don't think you deserve to live and be happy. Not being a dick but what about meditation? Like in a one to one class controlled class Getting into nature? Camping You're only 37!! So young. Forgive yourself your past mistakes, let go of it, it's killing you Try have some compassion for yourself. Would you treat any other human like you treat yourself?

@alicelovescats8884 ай бұрын
Allen Carr describes alcoholism (being an alcoholic) is someone who has lost control of their alcohol consumption and was actually never in control. I don’t debate that but the criticism here of AA is incorrect. AA says that an alcoholic is a person who cannot drink in moderation and should therefore abstain. It does not say that it is a genetic problem. It says it is caused by heavy drinking, and that a person cannot go back to casual drinking. Read the AA book. Recovery means no longer being addicted, not being an able to drink in moderation. Both methods recommend sobriety and both present methods of becoming sober. I am not addicted and have never been addicted to alcohol. So why do some people lose control and others don’t?

Like big numbers into smaller sets. 7 chunks max. 3. Memory palace. Visual memory of something u familiar with and placing the stuff there. Like path from front door to bedroom eg. tv room dining room kitchen washing machine bathroom bedroom eg. 4. Try to make something memorable, And sexual is memorable. 5. Number system. Numbers can become letters. Numbers can also represent similar looking objects. 5. PAO. person action object. every number from 0 to 100 all get stories PAO style.
