Diary of an ASD Squirrel. Day 47 Friday 15/12/23

TL:DR NMS is game de jour yet again, I may be somewhat addicted!; Alcohol crutch or curse ? ; The rollercoaster ride of life continues.

Another day on No Mans Sky, it’s 80% of my life at the moment!
I’ve been ‘lucky’ this week in that Mrs Squirrel has been in the office most of the week so I could really relax & not mask & not be triggered for most of the day.
I often wonder if this is just a ‘bad patch’ or if it’s something more.

Tonight my phone went while I was washing up, Mrs Squirrel was less than 5 ft away on the couch but “couldn’t” answer it.

Thankfully it turns out it was a spam call, rather than an important one.

Alcohol fixes many things it seems.
Nothing much, a couple of ciders & a rum n dry, but more than I usually have - heavyweight drinker that I am 😂

Final Thoughts:
The rollercoaster ride continues, I am definitely on the way up at the moment , but it is most certainly 2 steps forward 1 step back !

I worry that booze is becoming a crutch, I tell myself that it is simply the taste I like, but I wonder if there is something more to it.

Thanks to all those who are helping me on this journey, in a myriad different ways. I am thankful to each & every one of you ! 🫂 🫶🐿️🖖

Better have a gaming addiction than the alcohol one... It's your life but do be careful that you don't get too dependent on it. A slogan they have here is, translated "alcohol makes more problems than it solves". And I do believe that to be true.
I do drink at times but last time I was plastered was in 2012... I enjoy a beer or some Feigling or tequila, but with moderation.
Just saying that you don't want your body and brain to start needing the drink to cope. Because it won't solve things at all... It numbs them, sure, but your body doesn't need the damage that alcohol can do to it. 😔
So stick to NMS and be safe on planets where sentinels attack and where the plants want to kill you 😇 Hihi...

Sending big hugs from me 🫂 and sloppy wet kisses from Arwen 🐾 💜
