Hi Al
Coming on here today was a mega step for me and I'm really pleased I did it.
Its made me feel very emotional and I need to have a good long think about where I go from here. I take on board all you say about Oh, family and GP but I think I need to just take it a step at a time. Bit weepy at moment.
Thank you for the support. X0 -

Hi harrie
Wouldn't you just know it - blonde (from a bottle, don't tell anyone). X0 -
susie, Al knows what he's talking about, because it sounds like you are in a simular situation.
I went to see the doctor after my wake up time, it was embaressing, very, but it did make me realise there are people out there that will listen. When I started stopping, I had someone on the phone for me all the time, I can't begin to count the number of days I haven't drunk since then, when I would have before.
Al is right, I think you will need someone else, how do you think your OH would take the news?
Al, go and do some washing up, or do what I do, just reuse all the cups and spoons till they go black
