Clearing up any misunderstandings

It has been brought to my attention through my attempts to meet a women using Craig’s list, that I come across as a drunk, because of all my trips to programs and the continual bouts I had with alcohol. I’m writing this blog with an ending in mind, which will end with my current activities. I am chronicling my life since my injuries and there are some unfortunate decisions I made, but I have had to go through, to end up where I am now. I wanted a natural progression to current time, but it is not working out that way. I do not use alcohol to kill pain and have not for a number of years. Thanks to the doctor I see, who prescribed the medication I needed for so many years to help with the nerve damage pain I feel, I no longer have a need to use any other methods to help control my chronic pain. I am sorry for the judgmental people who cannot see the big picture and I take some of that blame for the way I have presented myself. I only want to present the entire process I have been through trying to live a normal life, by the way, which is impossible at times. I have written a disclaimer, which I plan to attach ever now and then, so maybe people will not be so judgmental. It follows.
I need to say despite all these negative occurrences with attempting to control pain, I finally succeeded many years ago getting it all under control. I do not drink like I once did and my medications have worked well for me for ten years now. Use the Google ads about recovery centers if they appeal to you, but they are not the links I wanted for my blog. I wanted burn survivor groups, clubs etc. I am trying to get them changed, but I am not having a lot of luck yet. Enjoy! That is what is important.
