I haven't drunk for about a year. I was at my bro's wedding a couple of days ago and it felt a bit strange toasting my brother and his bride with a glass of water but I was smug as shit the next day when everyone else was hung-over.

I like the West Coast spirituality stuff about finding your true path so you can live with authenticity but all that 'welcoming abundance into your life' seems like real hard work.

Maybe 'abundance' is an attitude not a bank balance.

MikeJJ, I think you should immerse enlightened hedonism man. Enlightened hedonism=if it makes you feel good and does no harm, it is good.
1. gardening
2. hiking
3. watching movies
etc.

Been there. It's amazing how easily I drop into that trap, the less money I have, the more time I spend in the pub.

I have spent a year of unemployment in local libraries but it did not work. Not drinking but not happy too. So there is no single way to do it.
