Eek - are we near new thread time?

Thanks for the kind words hope but I am in far more awe of our medical babes who work long shifts to help people day in and day out. Have a great holiday and leave WB to fester in the hotel

Hi all. I'm still in bed Blush drinking tea and watching crap tv...very lazy I know but so so nice. Should be in the sun but I'm knackered and hungover and I don't want to move!

wry poor pup and poor you Sad Pets are very much family, and it just be horrible seeing her in pain. But it sounds like she has the most loving and caring mum to take care of her.

lala don't you dare go anywhere!! You aren't failing and you are not dragging anyone down. Even if you're drinking, this is a perfect place to explore your relationship with alcohol, and you give lots of support to the rest of us. Plus we need puppy updates!!

hope enjoy your holiday, like ma said just leave WB in the hotel and make the most of the sunshine and rest!

ma you put so much into your work and clearly have so much more to give. So frustrating that things are still not sorted.

claret how are you doing? Have you heard anything from the alcohol team yet?

spanna have been having a look at that website. This week has been a bit of a write of, and next week will be too, but after that I need to try harder and maybe some good alcohol substitutes could be a new tactic to try. Hope you are ok lovely.

lady you are doing so well- day 26 is fab!

compton thank you for posting. 'We all think we have more time to sort things out' rang very true to me.

I've not managed a single day AF this week. Last week I did 4 so don't know what's changed, sometimes I seem to be able to do it and others times I just can't. I think once I fail on one day, I just think fuck it and keep going. It seems to then take a massive binge and hideous hangover to then get back into the mode for being AF for a while, until I fail again. And then the cycle repeats. I guess it's a new pattern that is at least based on some AF days, so is an improvement of sorts. But not good in the long term.

If no one can sort a new thread I can probably manage the links etc but someone needs to tell me what to write...not best placed to give any wise words!!

Hope everyone's having a good weekend. I should really think about getting out of bed now....

Day 1 again, I had a bottle of wine last night which is far too much for me especially as I'd been drinking during the week. I was having between 1 and 3 units a night so was telling myself that for all I wasn't af I wasn't binge drinking either so not really a problem. But then I go and have a whole bottle, I don't even feel that bad today which I think is a bad sign. I've got a holiday coming up in a few days and I don't want to spoil it by drinking too much but my dm likes a drink and it would create friction if I didn't join her. I know how messed up that sounds!

Elba I also find that sometimes I can be af quite easily and other times I have a drink every day. I think it's what keeps me drinking because I tell myself I can have af days, I can moderate, etc so I don't need to go completely af. I'm very probably deluding myself and should just stop, even if I did it with the proviso that I could drink on social occasions I'd still only drink about five times a year.

MaryMungoAndMidgies · 23/07/2016 16:12
