Great reply Missy! General be very careful you may be right at the top of the slope from the way you talk now is the time to assess what you are doing and make sure you are not heading downwards.

If you want to talk just pop your reply up here

I just wanted to say that faith in a higher being can be a huge help when struggling to come to terms with your addiction. Even if you yourself do not believe do not knock the faith of others

Its not an addiction but its a problem I take on board far to much sodium in ym food, I find without it the food just tastes too bland. It could be a hangover (excuse the pun) of my drininking that my tastebuds are shot.

Does anyone know of any decent alternative to salt that could help me out?
