The bishop leads the turkeys out of dangerous waters. Arm bands optional.

Open!!

Welcome aboard, Sunday sorry we've all gone silly today, hope it hasn't put you off!
I'm throwing lots of arm bands your way
A clean month is brilliant so don't bash yourself up about a slip up. I'm hauling you back on the surfboard.

Welcome Sunday. Sometimes we're silly but we're always trying. How are you doing tonight?

And you are welcome to join our party animal research project in deepest Columbia

Hi Sunday! I've just joined the thread this week too, it's a lovely non judgemental place!

Proper lol at the narration 😂👌🏻

Yes, always room for one more in Columbia. But seriously Sunday - we know how it is.

Ha Rivers!

A month off it is great! The last thing you should do it beat yourself up. I've spent two years off it and slipped back into it last year and have slowly watched things spiral. What you achieved in the past month is amazing.

It's bloody hard though

Thank you everyone, it's my birthday next week so of course the eminently sensible thing to do is to start my long weekend by getting battered my last blow out ended with me pulling an all nighters and then spending the next day throwing up. I thought it had put me off but clearly not. I am determined not to go back to the weekly pattern of getting utterly fucked on a Friday and losing half the weekend again

Keep posting, Sunday It does help to write it all down and have some support x

I hear you Sunday - kids go away, I get right on it and bang, it's time to pick them up again and I've achieved nothing except get utterly smashed. What do you have planned for your birthday?

Yes I've been there. I'm calling my last birthday The big birthday fiasco.
We'll help you fight the tide.

Sunday - please do

I can't begin to say how much hope and support I've received x

Notice the surfers battle over control of the music in a phenomenon known only to the tribe as 'Ravers disease'

You lot are brilliant, it's so good to know there are women out there just like me. I live in a 'nice' area, I'm nearly 48 and I imagine most of my mum friends and work colleagues would be utterly disgusted at my behaviour - it can be a very lonely place this double life

Yes, keep talking Sunday. It does help. I couldn't have got this far without this thread.

Ha,the double life!! So true! "what did you do this weekend?" "Well, I spent Friday and part of Saturday snorting fat ones and then I spent Sunday getting pissed to deal with the comedown and I had a line this morning to get me to work. You?"

"Note the speed of the surfers movements and their ability to hear each other as they all shout profound conversations over the music whilst chain smoking"

Welcome Sunday!
Have a read if you want of mine and the other surfers on the previous thread, the truth isn't lonely or shameful.
It's just that, the truth, and this place has been safe to say it x

Just yes to all that Sunday! The double life - I shudder to think if people found out! But also wonder if they would actually be supportive....

Bed time for me. See you all in the danger zone tomorrow!

No judgement here, Sunday.

'Good weekend?'
'Yeah I spent Thursday and Friday doing around £500 up my nose along with losing my shoes, throwing up in a random bin and had to cancel all my cards, I'm in the horrors of 'other people' so see you at lunch, yeah?'

"in the danger zone the party animals become silent and furtive. They do complicated things with mobile phones to retrieve numbers and say things like 'I'll be in bed by 9' 'just a small one' 'it's Friday' Fascinating natural behaviour"

God can you imagine pickle

This party animal is retiring to bed so night my lovely fellow surfers x
