"Elijah Blue Allman Fights Cher's Conservatorship Amid Claims of Sobriety and Concerns Over Finances"

Elijah Blue Allman, son of Cher, has filed a legal objection to his mother's request for a conservatorship over him, asserting his sobriety and ability to manage his own affairs. Despite past struggles with addiction, Allman claims he has been clean for over 90 days and is under medical care and attending AA meetings. He believes that if necessary, his wife should be considered for conservatorship, but maintains that he does not require such assistance. Cher, on the other hand, has expressed concern over her son's ability to manage his finances due to past mental health and substance abuse issues.

"Transformative Effects: My Journey with Intermittent Fasting, Sobriety, and a Caffeine-Free Life"

The author shares a personal journey of quitting various habits over 30 years, including meat, cigarettes, alcohol, caffeine, and eating after 8 p.m., as part of a series of essays on stopping things. This pattern of quitting started in seventh grade after being influenced by Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle" and continued as a way to assert control and agency over life choices. The process was often challenging, with quitting smoking being the most difficult but also the most rewarding. The author views each act of quitting as a triumph of will and a step towards self-improvement, and continues to consider new habits to quit as part of this ongoing personal narrative.

"Assessing Your Alcohol Intake: Health and Lifestyle Implications"

The U.S. Dietary Guidelines suggest a daily maximum of one standard drink for women and two for men to reduce long-term health risks, while the presence of symptoms like drinking more than intended, inability to cut down, and interference with life responsibilities indicate an alcohol use disorder. If you're concerned about your drinking, options include counseling, medication, or inpatient stays, and resources are available through the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism and Colorado's Own Path tool. Recovery is not only possible but expected, with more support options available than before.
