Hello,

Just that really.

Resisted a drink all week, even though I've never craved a glass of wine so much in my life!

As soon as it turned 6 and that was it. Me and DP got through 2 1/2 bottles of wine over the course of the evening Confused

We decided to sit in the dining room listening to music, talking shit no doubt and trying desperately to avoid the CV subject, but lost track of wine...I mean time!

So now I'm feeling very sorry/angry at myself. Plus I got about 2 hours sleep, as alcohol always disrupts my sleep and so from about 3am, all I was doing was thinking about all the doom and gloom and the what ifs and the general ARGHHH!! and managed to give myself a panic attack! Great!

Urgh back to camomile tea tonight me thinks Sad

Anyone else?

Yep, same here. Drank and binge watched Outlander. I feel like we’re in a transition phase and just trying to get our heads round this new reality so why not blow off some steam? Stay well!

MozziesLoveMe · 21/03/2020 12:05

Oh dear @AnneJeanne

I think had I binged watched, I would have been ok. It's always the sitting and chatting that ruins me, because I just don't realise how much I'm drinking.

Still haven't managed to get myself in the shower yet. Forced down a bacon sandwich so the pain killers could take effect 🤕 but that's my speed of productivity today.

We did!! While waiting for our online shop page to refresh!!! Feeling very dodge and emotional today. But it is allowed I think. Just for today. Just not every day! ( we keep telling ourselves)

MrsBungle · 21/03/2020 12:10

Yep, had a week from hell at work and I turned to the booze!

MozziesLoveMe · 21/03/2020 12:10

@Redhead37, yes. Just this once Wink

Yes, I had a very ouchy head this morning.

Waxonwaxoff0 · 21/03/2020 12:44

Yes. Drank a bottle of wine. Not feeling great today. On the plus side it's made staying at home all day a lot more appealing!

pollyhampton · 21/03/2020 12:45

Yep!

MuseumOfYou · 21/03/2020 13:04

Same here, not a sniff all week. Was asleep on the sofa within minutes. Such a cheap date nowadays.

missyB1 · 21/03/2020 13:07

God I'm a lightweight! I had two large glasses of wine and felt shocking this morning! Although I have got a streaming cold as well so that probably didn't help!

Mutedgrey · 21/03/2020 13:13

4 cocktails each, and 1.5 bottles of wine between us both. We’re tempted to have an afternoon tipple soon

tellmetostopbutikeepongoing · 21/03/2020 13:18

Been sober for 6 months and this past week is the first time I seriously nearly caved! But didn't in the end. I'm relieved, I know it would have made me feel better very briefly and then much worse. Don't beat yourself up but I think even responsible drinkers should be careful at the moment.

Elsa8 · 21/03/2020 13:45

Yep. Never normally drink much but I had a couple last night.

Cherrysoup · 21/03/2020 13:47

Drank 2 glasses of wine, won’t be doing that again in a hurry.

hamstersarse · 21/03/2020 13:54

Boris's 5 o'clock speech has become like cocktail hour for me.

So managed a shower 👏 Looking very green. Have drunk a lot of strong, black coffee, eaten a lot of Aldi's salted pretzel chocolate 🥰 and starting to feel a little less awful.

No but I’ll be doing it tonight Grin

mazylou · 21/03/2020 16:10

Yup. Back in bed for a snooze.

MozziesLoveMe · 21/03/2020 16:34

@Ohidontknow99, noooo! Don't do it!

@mazylou, I'm so jealous. I can't do day time naps. Let's face it, there isn't much else to be doing right now, but I'd just lie there feeling crap and frustrated that I can't just sleep it off. Very annoying.
