    FG are you OK?

    It was a hard night last night, so I went to bed at 6pm :) Didn't sleep for a long time, but the thought of getting out of bed was just too much, so I stayed there.
    I'm not going to the pub tonight.
    I'm getting nearer to deciding to give up, and admit that I am an alcoholic, but not quite there yet. Might try another online meeting today.
    The craving is pretty bad at the moment, but I'm trying to ignore it - it isn't the end of the world if I don't drink right now is it.

  • Oh, and Lewt, I'm giving up on the idea of AA
    They seem to hate me lol, doubt it would be any better at a real meeting.
    Once again, I'm alone :)
    Thanks for the links tho, I did really try my best

    you think every1 hates you at some point if you really think you tryed your best then good luck to you. one meeting isnt "best" in my book but each to their own. (once again your isolating) did'nt your thinking get you in the state your in do you think it can get you out?

    you know where recovery is as and when you want it.
    Ps. good idea not going to the pub!

    pps. i dont hate you at all. the the above is harsh however im noet going to !!!!! foot around as ive read your posts here and on the depression thread.
    Theres only one person who can help you and thats you babe! you need to want it.
    If i upset you don't stress, never forget that god aint finished with me yet.
  • Thank you Lewt, I've PM'ed you.

    A UNIQUE AND EXCEPTIONALLY LIGHT REFRESHING PERRY PRODUCED TO ONLY THE VERY HIGHEST STANDARDS.

    i know someone who is a lady friend who drinks a full bottle every evening , every night of the week and they say they have not a problem, i question her and the reply is i have no problem i get all things done in life and when it is my time this is what i enjoy.
    our could i make her see sense? she thinks this does her no damage and thinks its ok for her health

    i started off on wine... and at the end of the day when i didnt have to be...

    a mum or cook or domestic or wife or daughter or sister or grand daughter or worker or chauffer or anyones dog body......

    when it was MY time....... i started like this it was my time out :rolleyes: :o
    Heaven wont let me in & Hell's too scared i'd take over :kiss:
    Alcoholics do it till they pass out :o:D :;)
    THE MORE I NO THE LESS I UNDERSTAND :o

    Back from the brink - managed to limit it to one drink this morning, trying to get through this afternoon without any.
