Morning, tis me, Mouse 
Soma - fab post , so lovely to wake up to that, you sound really positive and raring to go. Lean on us okay? That's what this Bus is for. xx
Silver - always. We'll always be here to help a fellow Babe (new/odd). You know that work will be a massive triggery roller-coaster of a ride and that you'll have to deal with the kindness and well meaning of others....... never easy. I agree with venus.
If it all gets too much please just go home. When the triplets died, it took me six weeks + to go back to work. I tried after two weeks but all of the 'how are you feeling' comments from clients who didn't know about them dying absolutely crushed me in the end.
You need to be ready and if you get there to find you're not, go home xx
PS - Saf had the keys but she's not been here for a few days . They might be in the ignition?
Blanket - fab to see you back lovely..... you sound in a good place
Today - Happy Anniversary for this week . What you said here Today I will not drink. I have used all the wine and am broke so that should do it! never used to stop me getting my hands a bottle of £2.99 wine, even if that meant 'borrowing' money from DD's money box. 
Oh the shame 
.
I'm not saying that you'll do that, not at all, I'm just saying that if I wanted a drink, I'd get bloody well one!
Limit - yes it will, it will go away because once you get used to not having a drink, the novelty wears off. It takes time though, sometimes weeks, sometimes months, sometimes years and there are even moments that the odd crave will creep up and bite you on the ass even though you've been sober for years......
Sobriety is a very precious thing. You can't buy it, no-one can give it to you, it's all your own hard work. That's the only way to get it.
For me, giving myself permission to drink stops me wanting to, stops me binging, stops me even thinking about drink o'clock. It's weird but that's my thing, that's what works for me.
Re your ADs, everyone is different in how they respond to them. Read the info that came in the box, have a look on-line (NHS or other UK site rather than a 'Bob's super duper medical info' type page 
) and maybe keep a diary for a few weeks to see how you feel as you get used to them?
Nytol is fab for a while but you soon get used to and dependant on it so the sooner you can bin it, the better!
Keep posting here, this thread is for more than just booze you know. If you're struggling with the ADs, come talk to us.
Right, time to get dressed, peg the first load of washing out, get the choc-chip cookies in the oven and run the vacuum round the place.
Have safe days everyone xx
