>" Charlie Thanks for all that. I'm like that now. I am out of a rock-bottom anxiety-can't-cope-with-anything depression fueled by alcohol and now I don't drink and take Pamelor and Lithium, as well as fish oil. All of what you say happens, the piano playing (I'm even thinking of getting my trumpet out again)..."
Sorry to digress but: Fred, how long long did it take you after giving up alcohol to regain your enthusiasm for music?
I've been sober for the greater part of the last 6 weeks (for the first time in years). The trouble is that I never feel like practising while sober. While drinking I had oodles of energy/passion and could sing and play for hours without a break. Now that I spend most of my time sober, I just want to watch TV in the evenings.I don't want to give up my musical future as it's one of the few things that keeps me going. But I do need to give up alcohol!
