i took it a year ago, but it’s less content now, i’d just say put the videos on 1.25x, 1.5x speed, some of the videos are not helpful and it’s actually better to just read, and take your time on mcqs. SIMs are sometimes overwhelming so don’t be afraid to just watch the video that goes along with it, but don’t get into to much of a habit of doing so.

1 week sober! Over the last 12 years (I’m early 30s) I’ve reached this point just a handful of times. Alcohol is deeply intertwined into my social life much like everyone’s is I imagine. Feeling clear minded and energized. Want to stay clean for my own mental and physical health and for the benefit of my wife and children. Just starting this journey so thank you in advance to this community as I’m ready to learn from you all and be a part. Let’s go!

I was supportive of Lori when this virus first started but her actions since have dwindled my support of her. I don’t expect her to make every decision correct nor do we have to agree with all of them. I believe she should be correct around 75 percent of the time but I believe she is in the 50 percent range. I know everything doesn’t fall on her shoulder but things haven’t been great as of late. Hopefully they figure out something soon.
