Jive Bishop and The Surfettes: Surfing on

[ILostItInTheEarlyNineties]

Welcome to our support thread for anyone struggling with cocaine. Whether you want to quit, cut down or are someone whose life is affected, all welcome.
We offer non judgemental advice, tips, some absurd chat and most importantly lots of support and encouragement.
Come and join and we'll hopefully all help each other to surf the urges!

My robes will accommodate naked yoga tim and ponz's shoe collection.

Ah hope you're alright Hooch don't worry I'm being silly! We all love you. Be nice to yourself tomorrow!.

I'm confused as well. Not sure who I'm marrying. Is it Mr B.I now?
Oh well, the party sounds great. I'm sure Mr Lost will be in good spirits after admiring the wedding shoes.

Thank God we're not actually organising a wedding. Never let space cadets be wedding planners.

Yes, hooch - we love you. Please don't be hard on yourself.

I think we should start a wedding planning business. We could chill the fuck out of Bridezilla's.

I don't know Lost, you wouldn't want Mr BI, he has serious issues. 6g in one night wtf!? Ok I'll try to be kind to myself tomorrow, eww dreading it already

6g in one night? can I have his number? joking, that is pretty hardcore. It's frightening how use can escalate.

We'll be here to haul you back on your board Hooch.

Ok Serial I'm in. "Off the cuff Wedding Planning; it's all about the party."
(photos will be provided as you won't remember much after I Do)

We could organise stag nights too!

Morning! Blimey I missed a whole wedding party bonanza last night. And with naked tim and everything! Reckon I could've made a shoe shaped cake ...

Hope everyone is ok this morning. I feel better for ten hours sleep. Defo need to replete my happy chemicals lost.

Sun is shining today. I'm calling this day 2 Coke free and am building on it from this day forward. For better or for worse to continue last night's analogy.

I'm glad you're feeling a bit brighter Ponz. A few days dabbling and I start to feel like I'm losing the plot! It's amazing what a good night's sleep can do.

Yep let's surf from this day forward, richer or poorer, for better or for worse..

Oh boy this is a bad one. I have slept but as soon as I opened my eyes I am covered head to toe in the horrors. Don't know what to do with myself. I have drunk so much over last 2 days and hardly eaten, my poor body. Last time for a while, yuk yuk yuk. For those of you that surfed it out, well done and enjoy feeling normal. You wouldn't want to be where I am right now

Coffee carbs and a happy comedy box set hooch?

Or a long walk. Even a cry? Sometimes helps me.

Sending massive hugs darling xx keep checking in with us.

Thanks Ponz, I don't really deserve sympathy as completely self inflicted but it helps to share the pain... Not actually made it out of bed yet, luckily DS is at his dads til later.

Just take it hour by hour Hooch and ignore the feelings of doom..Try to drink (not that kind of drink!) and eat something. Sips of cold fizzy help me when I'm in a tangle.
Have a bath later when you stop feeling dizzy.
You will feel better soon.

Sorry I seem to have turned into a bossy matron!
Just to add to your horrors, I think we got engaged last night..

Oh hooch, it's a horrible feeling. Fizzy pop sorts me out as does keeping myself occupied.

Maybe have fish and chips or something substantial with DS later and go to a movie for total distraction factor?

Thanks ladies. I managed a bath and a slice of bread then went back to bed. I feel so weak and keep sleeping. Have decided one a month is still too much, what a waste of a weekend.

Have I missed the wedding?
Had the rest of the bag last night with MrD but may I didn't have enough? and I felt rubbish by 1am. Still feel crap, kind of blank, zombified and haven't accomplished anything today.

Ah dusty it's just not worth it is it?

Hooch how are you love?

Don't worry Dusty the wedding is still in the planning stages. You're bridesmaid and we're letting Ponzu pick your shoes..
I hate that empty zombified feeling. That can all go in the motivation bank for next time. It's like childbirth isn't it? You only remember the nice bits and blank out all the pain.

Early night for you young lady! And Hooch. Don't worry about not getting much done today, neither have I!

Aw I've never been a bridesmaid! Yes I'm definitely going to try to give it a swerve next weekend.

Sorry did you say "nice bits of childbirth"??

Yeah sorry, not the best analogy

I feel your pain Dusty I'm feeling a bit better, slightly less horrified. A 2hr round trip to London to collect DS distracted me for a while. Onwards and upwards, must find something to distract myself next weekend, it's the boredom that gets me. Thanks for all your kind words and advice earlier, it really helped me xx

You made it through hooch. Tomorrow is another day. Happy to hold you up on your board next weekend if you will hold me up on mine. Let's do it ladies. Synchronised surfing?
