PASS THE DUTCHiE ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE!!!!!!!!! ........ :dance013:
Music happen to be the food of love
Sounds to really make you rub and scrub

Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

It was a cool and lovely breezy afternoon
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
You could feel it 'cause it was the month of June
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
So I left my gate and went out for a walk
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
As I pass the dreadlocks' camp I heard them say
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)

Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
(I said) pass the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

So I stopped to find out what was going on.
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
'Cause the spirit of Jah, you know he leads you on
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
There was a ring of dreads and a session was there in swing
(How does it feel when you've got no food?)
You could feel the chill as I seen and heard them say
(How does it feel when you've got no food ?)

Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
(I said) pass the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

'Cause me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist
Me say listen to the drummer, me say listen to the bass
Give me little music make me wind up me waist, (I say)

Pass the dutchie on the left hand side (I say)
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

You play it on the radio, a so me say, we a go hear it on the stereo
A so me know you a go play it on the disco
A so me say we a go hear it on the stereo

Pass the dutchie on the left hand side (I say)
Pass the dutchie on the left hand side
It a gonna burn, give me music make me jump and prance
It a go done, give me the music make me rock in the dance

On the left hand side
(I said)
On the left hand side
(I said)
On the left hand side
We meet on the left hand side
(I'm fellin') on the left hand side
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side)
This is gonna make us jump and shout (on the left hand side)
I say east, say west, say north and south (on the left hand side)
This is gonna make me be able to jump and shout, I say (on the left hand side)

"n watR the Same" EyH! ?? !

Will be of alcohol 21 days this coming Sunday, which for me is a personal record..."before this 3 days was my best"

I try to stay active and busy just to keep my head occupied, its not easy.
I remain upbeat on what the coming weeks will bring, this time i fell more determined than ever, i believe alcohol becomes a problem when it starts to affect other people around you, "outside the circle so to speak" i find this thread very inspirational and the people who post in it as well, i always pop in for a read when i find myself close to the edge, one day at a time folks.. Peace, and all the best to you all....

Yup, hang in there. You can do it if you want to. One day at a time its so true, it gets easier, i wouldnt lie, its not just something people say. I diddnt see it much, and then i did. Keep pushing yourself in the right direction, gently. Youll get to where you want to go.

Big Up on 21 days!

3 Days! Its going to be a hard one. Quiting because im close to the age of both my parents who died young and NEED to live longer, im not close to be done yet!

Parents were hardcore alchy's, Contributed to both their deaths...

I also make alcohol, so its going to be that much harder for me to quit...

Supposed to make a whiskey mash this weekend for a client...
 
You can do it dude. I work around it sometimes and dont so much as even crave it. Its possible. Perhaps some distancing at first is warranted. The further you get the easier it gets. Drink water instead. Reprogramming your mind helps. What helped me was learning to hate it. Being a carcinogenic neurotoxin. Pharmacologically the opposite of cannabis. Peace.

I quit drinki g when i had to start pain meds after a comstruction accident. Was taken off from october to march and in that time period i had a couple beers.

Now im back on pain meds likely for life. Probably means no booze ever again. I choose pain free over medication side effects, or respiratory problems from mixing oxy and booze. I dont even enjoy the thought of booze at all.

I hope everyone trying or wanting to quit has a decent go of it. Booze sucks and is no good for anyone. I was lucky i was forced to make a choice and was very easy for me. Now i am happy mostly pain free and have no need for liquor in my life. Good luck to everyone staying away from booze...

5 Days In, ZERO cravings!

Odd as every time I used to quit, the cravings were ravenous...

Used to drink a 1/2 bottle of Kettle One 2-5 times a week, few months ago it was everyday...
 
Sounds like you've found the motivation to stick with it. Nice work. The further you are from GABA metabolization the easier it gets. Once you're fed up with something it's a no brainer.

Thats wuts up Krunch! Im a week in, two weeks before that but then I had a sip at my folks house of some Hen n killt half a fifth to myself by the end of the night. I was at about that level too, 1/2 - 1 1/2 pints of privilege henn every night or every other night, n Id take norcos with it too a lot of times which i heard is hella bad for u. Id also sometimes drink before my college classes and/or pop norcos. I been off the norcs for about a month, just been hittin the wax pen a few times throughout the days and really havent been cravin the other shit like i used to.

you control the drugs, the drugs don't control you, booze included.


I'd tried every single method of therapy to quit my cocaine habit back in the '80s; AA/NA, out-patient/in-patient, private counseling, etc... I guess I didn't really want to quit. Then I woke up one afternoon after a 2 day bender (freebasing) and told myself that I wasn't gonna wake up feeling like that ever again. I quit my 8.5 year coke habit by walking away when I was ready to. Although I'm sure I quit coke sometime in June of '88, I celebrate August 1st as my official day of sobriety; 8/1/88 was my first day in Minnesota, so wtf, Aug. 1st is as good a day as any as a date. 27+ years and not a single whiff or toke of coke :)

I treated drinking the same way although it never had the hold on me, nor did I abuse it as much as I did cocaine. I can still enjoy a cold beer (or maybe even 2) on a hot day, but certainly not every hot day in the summer, and I still occasionally throw a shot of sambucca or Galliano in my espresso from time to time as well, but not very often.

They say a bit of wine every day is good for the body, I could never do that, I don't want alcohol in my life daily or even weekly, sometimes I'll go 6 months or more w/o touching a drop, I won't let it own me a bit.




Best wishes to all who're trying to quit.......

btw, just because I was able to quit my vices on my own doesn't mean some of the programs I mentioned wouldn't work for any of you guys, ymmv as in anything.

I hated AA & NA because I was usually jammed in a classroom from borrowed schools or church's. And while everyone was busy quitting drugs or drinking they sat there chuffin' cigarettes like a bunch of nervous twitches, sucking down coffee and chowing on donuts. As far as I could tell, they were trading 1 vice for 3 and they were frigging oblivious to the fact, or just didn't care.

I never felt a bit of support from that program.
