Ive been drinking wine every weekend for as long as I can remember, normally a bottle and a half on a friday night, thats not really the problem. My problem is when i drink with friends I say things I would never normally say whilst drink and genrally make a fool of my self. I am sick of having to appologise to people. I am sick of feeling hungover and embarrassed in the morning, and feel completly guilty for doing things like driving hungover the next day. I hate my self the day after drinking and I have disided after a a particuarly heavy night and a two day hangover ive had enough.....like completly enough. I am feeling pretty OK about never having another drink... ever, this is a new feeling for me. Has any one else come to this point and if so could you share the benifits you have gained from giving up the drink.

Many thanks Angela

Don't have direct experience so posting partly to bump as it sounds like a positive move, just wondered if you'd seen there is a separate alcohol support thread?

I'm guessing you might find out who in your sociak group have their own concerns re alcohol - we have such an f'd uo culture round drinking in this country and I know I'm not immune either from the drug or the messed up thinking, so good luck Smile

Oh and WHY are all the soft drinks so suagary, and why is it somemes so difficult to get a cup of tea instead!
