The giving up/cutting down alcohol support thread! Part 4

Doing well Jo :T

Made me laugh with the vision of you chatting to yourself in the car at the lights I sometimes say things out loud and then realise I was supposed to be thinking that and not speaking it

Sleep well everyone. Hard nights graft ahead for me :rolleyes:

Hi YM,

I can see that your green light is on at this unearthly hour.! I had some wine last night hence the reason for me being up now as I can't sleep.

Did I enjoy it ? No not really. Was it worth it. No not really.

So I am still on 9 days. Life is so much easier without alcohol. Last night I found out that someone was "passing the buck to me ". I wanted to respond by e-mail but couldn't as I didn't trust myself to respond as the "normal" me IYSWIM. Life is still hard without the drink but at least you know its not BECAUSE of the drink.

Anyway enough ramblings from me . I am going to be very tired & grumpy in the morning. OH is going to love me:rotfl::rotfl:

Hi 40sm

Yeah hard at work I am

Having no beer in the house is not bothering me at the moment to be honest.

As you say " life is so much easier without alcohol"

Good morning :wave:
WBF, hope you're okay hunny?
ETA: OMG, a 1/3 of the month done :eek:

Thanks Jo! Guess the answer is not at the moment. But there is stuff going on at home and I'm v busy in the new job I got promoted into so I expect I just need to be patient. Home should be better in a week's time and I have a lovely weekend to look forward to on 19th & 20th. So I just need to be patient.

I'm annoyed that every morning I feel like death, hungover and haven't slept and then every morning I say today I'll be af and then by the evening I'm clinking a couple of bottles from sainsbugs and repeating the daft cycle. I think if I was sleeping better I would be more able to cope. Because I'm not and 'deserve' it I'm drinking too much wine every night and then not sleeping. And it's stooopid of me.

Still, I have had more AFDs this year than the previous decade, so that's good!

Morning YM - my virus check thingy won't let me - will ask OH later how to switch it off. Thankfully had the volume down as he's asleep in the next room and it did the warning warning kind of thing at me - very quietly thank goodness!

Right, ready to head back to bed for some sleep now. Bad joke for you all this morning...

A brain goes into a bar and says to the bartender, "I'll have a beer, please."



The bartender says, "Sorry, I can't serve you. You're out of your head."

Morning
Was in the same frame of mind as Jo last night, popped into town to get an application form for a new job in an effort to better my mood, was teetering and arguing with myself walking past offy and supermarket. Easy to justify why I should/deserve have one after such a poopy day.
Was going to throw the last 10 days away. Resolve won and pleased to say I'm on 11/30.
