    As long as no-one minds, I might post again a bit.
    I've had a bad week, got given a sh*t load of beer for my birthday by a well meaning relative and promtly got !!!!!! 3 nights on the trot and drank it all, not particularly proud of that, especially as I had to go into work twice.
    I must get back to as I was before again and stop this right here.

    Soooooooo I'm back for the continuing support from others and to give my support to anyone who wants it.

    Works been a bit crazy and I'm rushed off my feet, so I won't be here alot.

    Mich, don't beat yourself up, what you have done has been amazing. I am astounded by the amount of days you are all doing.

    :o :j :j :j :j hi you xx

    & all :D

    havent posted for awhile and most probably not
    for the next 2 weeks (unless I find a tinternet cafe):rolleyes:

    im finally faceing my subject of avoidance !!!!

    packin the cases :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: ...

    i managed to get to a meeting this pm &
    spoke about my fears...relating to my holiday....

    the thing thats been eating away at me is that i no i will
    be surrounded by everyone drinkin & thought for a moment
    that i would surcomb to my illness......

    i now no ive been paying too much attention to this thought....
    in reality..... theres no difference between being over there and
    being here.......

    i can just as much go out and buy alcohol 24/7 here.....
    (that penny dropped yesterday) :rolleyes: :o

    theres just one thing stoppin me..........


    ME !!!!! ;).........

    and another thing........

    ive been toying with the idea to 'treat' myself
    to a glass of wine with my meals while im away......
    trouble is.......
    the leval of guilt, remorse, sadness, etc...... i would feel...

    well if im going to feel them for one glass of wine i
    might as well go the whole hog and get bladderd...
    AFTER ALL
    i am an alcoholic... this is the way i think.....

    sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

    no wine for me then ;););)

    keep well & sober ac xxxxx
    Heaven wont let me in & Hell's too scared i'd take over :kiss:

    Hi beer, at least you are OK, I think. Word in the rels ear about prefering some bling, might not go amiss:rotfl: .

    ac, have a great holiday, I'm off your second week, what will the North West do without us:confused: Be yourself:D You seem to be of the same opinion as me, one glass is just the top of the slippery slope. Might not be, but why take the risk:cool: If you do, please don't beat yourself up about it, try the OH;)

    Might be back later, after a think:o
  • Although I can obviously see how upset you are regarding your horrible week & I'm really sorry about that Beer, I can honestly say that I'm really glad that you've rejoined the thread again, as I for one have really bloody missed you!!!!

    AC have a fab holiday, you deserve it.

    Westy xx
    Now thanks to Tommix & Queen Bear, now Lady Westy of Woodpecker :)
