Al_Mac

Mrs Mac and son have gone to the Everton game, Miss Mac is in Chester buying a party frock with a friend.

Who else can I annoy

Where do you live Al Mac?
I'm home, without alcohol.

Al_Mac

Me, I'm in Cheshire, if you were to draw a line between Chester and Manchester and Liverpool and Birmingham, around about the join. Probably got that second line wrong, could be Warrington

Good idea about no alcohol, did you know it's a depressant

feelinggood_2

Thought you'd occasionally been mention places I know. I spent most of my life in Cheshire So you are saying you don't live in Warrington? Good job, don't like it there. Ikea is good though!

I'm going to eat instead of drink lol.

Al_Mac

IKEA is pants, hell on eath and the stuff isn't good either.

Food is OK, try fruit

well .its almost the New Year and my NY resoulution again is to quit the drink.i have tried and tried but can only last one day and by day tweo i crave it soo much that i give in and end up drunk after telling myself i'll just have one.It just creeps up on you. for years i have bwewen telling myself i just love a wee drink. but i have a severe problem. as some one said on here nothing happens at night...any night cos i am usually !!!!ed or getting there.
is thre any thing i can take to help the craving for alcohol ? weas searching the net earlier and came accross https://www.mywayout.org and it suggested TOPAMAX .has anyone heard of this or anything else to help me kickstart getting my life back. i have missed so much of my kids lives.....even the youngest asks me "have you had a drink mum, can you give me a lift to weherever". i feel better even just admitting to myself i have a problem , the hard bit is staying off the stuff...........

Al_Mac

There isn't anything I know of that will stop you drinking.

Mine was will power and the thought of losing everything.

AA works for some.

Have you talked to your OH.

Be back later

hi
i couldnt get in to that site it asked for password, i used to drink like you and called it my day on day off theory, the day off i usally felt so bad i couldnt drink. then day after that i forgot or lied to myself how bad it was.

i tried drugs to numb the craving. camprsai or somethiing, didnt work though as i had a mental obsession that would convince me that i wasnt an alcoholic or i could have just one(be it drink or sesson) and i'd be ok to stop again after that. but it never happened. once i was on it i was on it. with or with out the days off towards the end.

i have tryed most ways to stop and controll drinking. but the only thing i have found that helps to keep me stay stopped is here
seee what you think
