Just wanted to respond to Johngalt:
1. Religion/Faith: I'm no bible-thumper brother. I'm actually a lapsed Catholic who loathes going to church....too boring. But through another program, I've understood there is a higher power and that by giving over to God/community/others, you battle the selfishness that feeds addiction. Unfortunately, faith is linked to conservative (read: anti-gay) politics in the US but not so in most European countries like where I live. So while I talk the talk, I'm no evangelist (I hope!) but realize that being gay is a gift, and that my God loves me. This helps me love myself.
2. Diet: I'm a healthy eater and now exercise freak. But you got me thinking. I did have a rather boozy and sleepless weekend with my BF and a group of friends. So I'm going to cut down on the booze, or perhaps give it up, and get lots of rest. I caught up last night and feel like a new man.
3. Xmas: I accept your invitation. But only if you stay off Grindr.
Love D.
